The Trump House is a unique farmhouse located in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. This house is special because it is painted all over with the American flag. It became a well-known place for people who supported the Donald Trump 2020 presidential campaign.
History of the Trump House
The house was an old, empty building before 2016. It was then painted and fixed up. It started being used as a place to support Donald Trump's presidential campaigns in both 2016 and 2020.
In September 2016, Donald Trump himself shared a picture of the house on Facebook. He wrote about how much he liked the house and thanked the supporters.
Friends from Pennsylvania just sent this to me! A beautiful home in the tiny town of Youngstown, PA - birthplace of golf legend, Arnold Palmer. Safe to say, they are on the #TrumpTrain! Thank you for your support!
In October 2016, a small legal issue happened near the house. A driver had a car crash nearby. The driver later said the house was a distraction.
Community Reactions to the House
People living in Westmoreland County, where the house is, have had different feelings about it. In 2016, Donald Trump received a lot of votes in this area.
The Trump House became a very popular spot for Trump supporters. Hundreds of people visited the house every day. The owners of the house even gave away free items to support the Trump campaign.
Design and Appearance
The Trump House has three stories. It is painted on every side to look like the American flag.
Outside the house, there is a big sign facing the road that says "TRUMP 2020." There are also smaller lawn signs around the property. These signs have different slogans from Trump's campaigns. A very tall, 14 ft (4.3 m) steel cutout of Donald Trump stands outside the house.
