OR; equally as likely would be the person making the request on behalf of the Whitehouse is known and held in so low esteem by her peers that this respondent thought it was a joke and responded appropriately while sitting at her desk dressed in normal business attire.
Regardless; if people behaving rudely is an issue for Trumpers; they're the most oxymoronic bunch of misfits on the planet today if that irony escapes their notice.
Idiots wouldn’t know this “toilet” is already an insult artwork representing wealthy American waste. The jokes on all of you.
I'm betting Mr. Cattelan would wholeheartedly agree with the replacement offered to Mr. Trump:
Quote:
...For "America" Cattelan replaced the toilet in this restroom with a fully functional replica cast in 18-karat gold, making available to the public an extravagant luxury product seemingly intended for the 1 percent. Its participatory nature, in which viewers are invited to make use of the fixture individually and privately, allows for an experience of unprecedented intimacy with a work of art. Cattelan’s toilet offers a wink to the excesses of the art market but also evokes the American dream of opportunity for all—its utility ultimately reminding us of the inescapable physical realities of our shared humanity. ...
Personally, I'm grateful for all the folks who share their privately-owned Art pieces with everyone else when they make them available to be enjoyed at Museums & public spaces.

The Trumpistas are now getting back at the Guggenheim - by posting one-star Yelp reviews. You can't make this stuff up.
I am having an absolute ball watching the totally-not-Trump-supporters suddenly dropping their pince-nezes at such rudeness and indecency. The obscenity is that you elected the short-fingered vulgarian to hold high office in the first place, now you suddenly stand on decorum?
And this has to be one of the coldest, best-crafted insults ever. Trump wants, so so bad, to be the sort of New Yorker who runs with the Guggenheim board, the Met Opera, the Philharmonic. It's just that he lacks everything that wins you influence in these circles. Style apart from "More gold leaf", class, artistic interest beyond the price tag, refinement, that sort of thing. Basic charm, too. Things money won't buy you.
I effect, he asked the Guggenheim "I'm President now. What do you think of that?" and the Guggenheim responded "This is what we think of that. You asked."

OMG, that is the funniest thing I have ever heard !! I just called everyone in the office to come and watch that story, and they are still howling ! Sure gonna miss Trump when he is gone, he is a riot !!!
I'm pretty sure Trump already has gold-plated bathroom fixtures.
Maybe the Guggenheim was thrilled to offer something to Trump that they already know he likes. After all, it's a genuine work of art, and if they gave it to me, I'd just melt it down, being a philistine and all.
It's really hard to find a gift for someone who already has everything.
