In a sketch that pokes fun at the Trumps' renovation plans for the White House, HGTV's "Property Brothers" are called in to help. The hosts, Drew and Jonathan Scott, were told they had a budget of "$350 million to infinity," implying they would have no financial restrictions as long as Donald Trump got his way.
The Scott brothers set out to add as much gold as possible to the presidential home, but their design sense was skewered by Saturday Night Live. The President showed off his moodboard, which included images of Vladimir Putin and Jabba the Hutt's palace from "Return of the Jedi." When asked about the Christmas decorations, Melania replied that those were for Halloween.
Things took a sinister turn when Trump revealed he planned to stick around for several terms. "It'll be ready just in time for my third term," he said. "We're not leaving. We're going to do a little thing called 'coup.'" The idea was that the White House would become their forever home.
The sketch left viewers wondering if the Trumps' renovation plans were more about personal vanity than actual need, and whether the country could handle a President who seemed determined to stay in office for life.

. Like, I get it, the Trumps wanna make their mark on the White House, but can't they just focus on making it functional or something? $350 million to infinity is wild, fam 
. And what's with the Putin and Jabba vibes? It's not exactly the most reassuring moodboard 
. The idea of a President staying in office for life is straight up unsettling 
. Like, isn't that just begging for corruption or something? Can't we all just agree to have a decent term limit? 
... I mean, come on, $350 million to infinity? That's just crazy talk! And what's with all the gold? It sounds like they're trying to build a palace or something 
. But seriously, it's kind of concerning that Trump is so invested in staying in office. I don't know about anyone else, but I think four terms would be a bit too much 
. And the way he's talking about making the White House their "forever home" just feels like a recipe for disaster 
. It's good that we've got some satirists like SNL to keep us on our toes and remind us of what's really going on in Washington 
. $350 million is a huge budget, but when you're talking about the White House, it's not just about the renovation – it's about the symbolism 
. If Trump really wants to stick around and make it his "forever home", that sends some pretty scary vibes 
It's like he's trying to undermine the whole concept of a peaceful transfer of power 
.
. And those Christmas decorations for Halloween? Yeah, that was pretty funny 
. Can we really afford to have a President who's more interested in building his own personal palace than serving the people? 
can't even imagine christmas decorations for halloween tho 
And what about the country? Are we really gonna be okay with having a president who's basically saying they're gonna stay in office no matter what? 
. And a "coup" to take over the White House? That sounds super sketchy and not at all what you'd expect from a President 
. I don't know, maybe they're just trolling us with this whole thing, but it feels like Trump might be more interested in being the king of his own castle than actually serving the people 
. I mean, come on, $350 million to infinity? That's just ridiculous. It sounds like Trump is trying to create his own personal playground rather than renovating the White House for its intended purpose. And what's up with the moodboard? Putin and Jabba's palace? Is he really trying to model himself after a galaxy far, far away villain? 
. It sounds like they're more interested in staying in power than actually doing what's best for the country.
.
this is some crazy stuff... thinkin they're gonna turn the white house into their own palace lolol what's next? they're talkin bout doin a coup tho which is super scary 
meanwhile, melania says christmas decorations are for halloween wtf 
. Trump's gonna be there forever? That's just a recipe for disaster...or a reality TV show
