How Donald Trump is reshaping Washington, D.C., in his image
President moves to overhaul White House, take over policing and stickhandle arts and culture in U.S. capital
U.S. President Donald Trump is presiding over one of the most dramatic transformations of Washington, D.C., in a generation, as he makes monumental changes to the historic White House complex, federalizes local police as part of a "beautification" campaign, takes over the district's performing arts centre and dictates what should be on display in the national museums.
Trump is taking a more hands-on approach to district issues than any of his recent predecessors as he tries to remake the capital in his image, all while rooting out what he calls "wokesters," homeless people, hardened criminals, illegal migrants and others.
In Trump's D.C., there will be no more "savagery, filth and scum," he said.
