Meanwhile, we just crossed $40trillion national debt mark

The interest alone on that debt is over $1 trillion a year!

The ballroom is being paid for with borrowed money.



Well certain folks don't want to stop fraud.

I'm not a big fan because it significantly throws off the balance of the property. It just looks off aesthetically because the volume of the ballroom looks larger than main portion of the White House and west wing combined. I think it is a bit melodramatic to think that makes me a commie.

I'm just jealous

I wish I could say whatever dumb shite I want, make poor decisions that directly cost my voters money, act on every random emotional thought, shite myself, have a young blonde who was not my wife always by my side, do the opposite of what I say I'm going to do, sleep during big meetings, lie about everything and have idiots believe me.

I'd be soooo happy.

No one with an ounce of intelligence gives a shite about this ballroom and whether he builds it or not.

I’m honestly not sure if you’re agreeing or disagreeing with me, so I’m just going to…

We don’t need a new ballroom. We need a new President.

Feel free to elaborate on how your comparison of a 9 figure “ballroom” debacle compares to a couple hundred bucks spent on paint to shoot some hoops.

President Trump told reporters Monday that critics who are opposed to his proposed White House ballroom are disloyal to the country.


And why not?

Idiot populists up in here say that sort of stuff when you're trying to defend the Constitution.

The Washington Post reported last week that the ballroom is set to cost at least $900 billion.


No they didn't.

WaPo said all construction could end up exceeding $900 million. Typo?

For the love of god, we need to elect someone under the age of 60 next time. The last 10 years being led by old men with priorities like ice cream cones and ballrooms is exhausting. Give Gen X a shot.

They are. He’s 100% correct. For the simple reality that the opposition and lawfare are all based in petty partisan hatred. And this hatred is costing taxpayers money. No one cared when other presidents renovated the White House.

KCT speaks the truth, 100%. This is just another hyper-TDS issue. The DemCommies couldn’t care less about the ballroom, just oppose any and everything Trump….even the things that are good for the nation.

Irony.

Democrats being called commies while Trump and his maga simps support North Korea. There’s also video of Trump rendering a military salute to a commie general from 2018. LINK

I still don’t understand tearing down an entire wing of the White House for it.

Extensive amounts of US Military command infrastructure is being installed into the multiple levels of basements in the ballroom.

How is spending hundreds of millions on a tacky ballroom good for the nation?
