Trump’s act of destroying the East Wing is exactly the point, Adam Gopnik writes. It’s “a kind of performance piece meant to display Trump’s arbitrary power over the Presidency, including its physical seat.”

The East Wing was where Eleanor Roosevelt walked. It was where Jacqueline Kennedy planned the Rose Garden. Now it’s all but gone.
