Now ask yourself why Trump has issues doing what he campaigned on and you’ll know the answer.

This is why nobody takes the courts serious anymore. Just a petty ruling for no reason.

So is the judge just going to let the part of the WH that was demolished sit there?

Cheeto has bigger issues to worry about than getting his vanity ballroom project finished

The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner! President Trump ("the President") claims that Congress has given him authority in existing statutes to construct his East Wing ballroom project and to do it with private funds. The plaintiff, the National Trust for Historic Preservation in the United States ("National Trust"), claims the President has no such authority under existing statutes and that a preliminary injunction is necessary to avoid irreparable harm. I have concluded that the National Trust is likely to succeed on the merits because no statute comes close to giving the President the authority he claims to have. As such, I must therefore GRANT the National Trust's Motion for a Preliminary Injunction, and the ballroom construction project must stop until Congress authorizes its completion.

This can easily be ignored citing national security. I presume the ballroom is the literal cover for military security upgrades.

When someone purposely styles their eyebrows like that you can deduce a number of things:

1. Their judgement is shite.
2. Their personal hygiene is shite.
3. They partake in very questionable sexual habits.

Every single time.

Yo judge, those eyebrows are not going to stop people from noticing that you are fat, balding and slobbish.

Wouldn't it have been a bigger W to stop him from tearing up the stuff first? Blocking the building of the ballroom is petty.
