Look, I'm the last person to judge them breaking something. I am clumsy and careless and break shit all the time.

But it's just so perfectly emblematic of Republicans. They look at this old globe of the world how it was 80 years ago and think it's so nice and they should have it for themselves... and then they break it out of carelessness.

Why would he even want that? It's not like he even knows how to use it.

"An accident occurred while staff were transporting a replica of the Eisenhower globe as part of its relocation,” the official’s statement said.

“Accidents happen, we are grateful no one was harmed, and the globe is being repaired. It is unsurprising that the Washington Post is once again dedicating time to another inconsequential non-story

If it were simply a replica, they wouldn't be spending all the time and effort to repair it

Scary how blatant the propaganda is now

What it's supposed to look like:

What it now looks like:

A bit too on the nose there

What's the word for when metaphors become reality?

What is it with this guy and big balls?

(Emphasis mine). Wow, just wow. It'd be an accident and non-story if they broke the copy machine or dropped a TV, but the whole point of historical artifacts is that they can't just be replaced. I'd say it makes my blood boil, but let's be real, it was already boiling, this is just fuel to the fire.

So he broke it and blamed the intern.

Interesting this leaked now. It happened months ago.

Nothing is sacred and nothing is safe from the looting.

Like something straight out of The Great Dictator. But that's just life in the Clown's Age.

Right up there with the orange painted cretin throwing White House sterling silverware in the trash

This perfectly describes the current government, everything they touch they break or everything they touch falls apart kinda sounds better.

DUI hire

Way too many of you are assuming it's actually broken and not stolen.

They can't even move a stationary globe while not being fired upon. I wonder how they'll do in war? /s

The writers are just phoning it in now.

My bet on this is Hegseth commandeered it from the Smithsonian and broke it when he drunkenly showed it off.

Release the Epstein files FFS

He was probably trying to flatten it as he knows the world isn’t really a globe.
