Trump has vowed to return a bust of Winston Churchill to the White House, says the Daily Mail. A gift to President Johnson in 1965, the bronze took pride of place in the Oval Office until 2009, when Obama replaced it with one of Martin Luther King Jr. Trump, a Churchill fan, immediately brought it back when he was elected in 2016, only for it to be removed 4 years later by Biden.
