Can you imagine Trump's green room being this sparse? I'm sure he has more staff devoted to catering after his creature comforts than he has on media response (one: Hope Hicks). If you can find it, there is an aviation show about Trump's jet and all the meticulous prep that goes into a Trump flight. Even the pilot is in there with a toothbrush cleaning surfaces in the passenger cabin.

Can you imagine Trump playing any musical instrument?
