  • Trump initially avoided any comment about the Bonwit Teller artwork. But John Baron, a spokesperson with the Trump Organization, contacted the New York Daily News to discuss the situation. Baron informed the Daily News that “the merit of the stones was not great enough to justify the effort to save them.” Baron stated that the removal process could have set back Trump Tower’s construction timeline by two weeks. Baron also told the New York Times that he had no idea what happened to the ornate grillwork.
    Long after Baron’s initial contact, the New York Daily News learned that John Baron was actually Donald Trump, in disguise.

    WTF?







  • In Germany there is no official limit for how long it can take to form a new government. If there is no clear winner and the coalition talks are complicated, it can easily take a month or more. After the election in 2017 it took almost half a year before Merkel was elected as Chancellor and the government was formed. That was uncommonly long though.

    For the time between the first sitting of the newly elected parliament (30 days after the election iirc) and the formation of a new government the previous government acts as caretaker government.
