If you didn't know, only six desks have ever been used in the Oval Office:

The Teddy Roosevelt Desk: used by Presidents T. Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Harding, Coolidge, Hoover, Truman, and Eiswnhower



The Hoover Desk: used by Presidents Hoover and F. Roosevelt



The Resolute Desk: used by Presidents Kennedy, Carter, Reagan, Clinton, W Bush, and Obama



The Johnson Desk: used by President Johnson

The Wilson Desk: used by Presidents Nixon and Ford

The C&O Desk: used by President Bush 1


The Resolute desk is clearly the most bad arse, and the fact that Reagan used it would be a draw. But I think Trump will end up choosing to use the Roosevelt desk. Dark horse: Wilson desk.

For reference, his desk at his office in Trump Tower appears to be a built-in:

Resolute seems to fit his style more.

By the way, Trump's desk has nothing but magazines on it. Looks like a coffee table in some shitty doctor's office.

He will probably go get one custom made for him: The Trump Desk. It will have gold leaf accents for sure.

Johnson desk is ugly as frick. What a piece of shite.

Almost 100% chance it's the Resolute.

Can we rename the Resolute Desk? Tremendous Desk. Best Desk.

I think he'll have one custom made and it will look like it was designed by Liberace on acid.

I dont think he will care. The desk in his office now is very plain. He probably thinks a desk has a function. To provide a place to work.

Anything will do, but probably the one with the largest surface area since he definitely is not OCD.

Which one will provoke the least outcry when the Trump name is inlaid across the front in 24 carat gold lettering?

I mean, if you were elected POTUS, first thing you do when you're in the oval alone is look through it for secret drawers, right?

He'll use a desk that can store a lot of pens and spare phones. He's going to need them to undo all of the BS.
