Here's why Guggenheim Museum is making headlines:Yes.US President Donald Trump was recently offered a golden toilet by the museum.Yes. A solid gold sculpture of a functioning toilet that had been inspired by his presidential bid.Yeah, apparently, the sculpture was inspired by Trump's decision to run for the White House. They say that more than 1,00,000 people made use of the toilet when it was on display.Actually, Trump reportedly asked the museum to borrow a Van Gogh painting for the White House, but was instead offered the gold sculpture. The president's affinity for gold fixings has a well-documented history, especially when it comes to bathrooms and elevators. His three-story, $100-million penthouse in New York City is decorated with 24-karat gold and marble features in the style of Louis XIV.
