WASHINGTON — President Trump signed a proclamation on Thursday naming the Oval Office and the Roosevelt Cabinet Room national landmarks, making them “landmarks for the ages. ” It was the third day in a row the president talked about his renovation projections, following his speech at the Lincoln Reflecting Pool on Tuesday and his tour of the new ballroom on Wednesday. His new order means the two rooms — the historic office of the president and the main meeting room in the West Wing — cannot be changed without an act of Congress.
