This weekend, we celebrate two of the most important days in world history: The death of a carpenter from Nazareth and his resurrection three days later. Over time, that celebration has evolved quite a bit, with several traditions rising to prominence over the years.

Obviously, when we think of Easter these days, we also think of eggs (even in this economy), and how we decorate them. Right now, there's a last-minute rush on dyeing eggs for tomorrow's egg hunts. Tomorrow, we all hope to find every egg in the yard before we can smell them on Tuesday.

If you're not the dyeing type, maybe you're looking for a neat way to decorate them and elevate them to something really special. Martha Stewart is a fan of gold leaf, and when it comes to being extra, Martha Stewart is the queen.

Well, here she is on one of the morning shows applying gold leaf to an egg and chatting it up with the hosts when she mentions that "Our President loves gold leaf, too."

They are right, too. That gilded wooden egg does look like the Oval Office.

If you’ve ever walked into a Trump property and felt like you’d stepped into a Versailles-themed episode of "MTV Cribs," you’re not alone. The man has a gold-plated aesthetic so consistent it borders on parody—and yet, somehow, it works for him. From chandeliers the size of compact cars to carpeting that looks like it was custom-ordered from Liberace’s estate sale, Donald Trump may be our first truly Martha Stewart-esque president, just with more gold leaf and fewer pastel table settings.

Let’s be honest: no one in modern American politics has cared more about decorative flourishes than Trump. George Washington had Mount Vernon, Jefferson had Monticello, and Trump has Mar-a-Lago, a place that looks like what would happen if Southern Living threw a Gatsby party at a Mediterranean villa. He doesn’t just host dignitaries—he stages full-on scenes. If Martha Stewart is the queen of domestic staging, Trump is the king of aesthetic bravado. He even made the Resolute Desk look like a prop in a high-end casino suite.

Sure, Martha Stewart never had a gold-plated toilet (as far as we know), but she did go to prison and come out more fabulous than ever. While Trump never went to prison, he was indicted and found guilty. While I am not saying that being in legal trouble makes you more fabulous, it would be irresponsible of me as a journalist to discount the possibility. 

What I am saying, though, is that Trump may respect that energy. In a way, they’re kindred spirits. They are unbothered by criticism, loyal to their brands, and completely committed to making every room—and every moment—look like it costs more than your mortgage.

So no, he may not be folding napkins into swans anytime soon, but in terms of flair, presentation, and an undying commitment to “making things nice,” Trump might just be Martha Stewart with a political action committee.

Actually, can Trump get Martha on an executive committee to focus on beautifying The Swamp? That would be something to see.
