How neat that President Trump is using “John-John’s” desk…such a memorable photo. Thanksgiving this year is November 22nd, the day his father was murdered 55 years ago.
John, Jr. …the most attractive and charming of the lot…would have turned 58 on the 25th…

From Wikipedia:
This desk was created from wood salvaged from HMS Resolute and given to Rutherford B. Hayes by Queen Victoria in 1879. The desk resided in the White House in various rooms and had a hinged front panel added to it by Franklin D. Roosevelt, until Jacqueline Kennedy found it languishing in the “White House broadcast room.” She had it restored and moved into the Oval Office. After Kennedy’s death, the desk was removed for a traveling exhibition, returning to the Oval Office under Jimmy Carter in 1977. It has been the Oval Office desk ever since with the exception of the George H.W. Bush presidential years.

Hmm.. I wonder what desk George H.W. Bush used and why?

George H. W. Bush used this desk during his tenure as both vice president and president of the United States. It was created for the owners of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway around 1920 and subsequently donated to the White House. Previously, Presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan had used it in the West Wing Study.[5]
Bush used the desk as VP so it seems he just had it moved into his new office.
