What a monstrosity.
Wow, didn’t need Canadians to destroy the White House this time.
SNAP benefits about to end while the orange shitstain starts his vanity project.
And Argentina gets $40 billion.
All paid for by bribes and backdoor deals to make Americans suffer more.
Remember next year when your insurance premiums increase by 20-400%. You can thank Donald Trump personally.
It’s paid for by our taxes. The bribes and backdoor deals go straight into his pocket.
Isn’t the government shutdown? Why are they wasting money on this useless luxury shit?
All that “government shutdown” means in this context is that certain parts of the government have no money, so can’t operate. The ballroom is largely funded by the President shaking down private companies and forcing them to fund it, so they have plenty of money for this.
Yes.
I want to know who is the contractor hired for the work
POTUS aside, It’s kind of nuts he’s still deemed creditworthy by contractors given his history
Gavin should use this picture directly in his 2028 campaign
I truly hope that transphobe Gavin doesn’t become the nominee.
I hope you do realize he is one of the only people actively fighting back against this shit.
This kind of discourse is one of the main contributors that brought the orange moron back.
You don’t have the luxury of choosing between 10 candidates. It’s the turd sandwich or the fascist turd sandwich.

Don’t forget that there haven’t even been a single primary. So it’s a bit too early to hitch your wagon to a problematic person.
His campaign is basically a copy of MAGA but for Dems. Is that really what you want?
What I want is the orange shitstain hung by his feet along with his sycophants. The next best thing would be a defeat. Yes there is no primary and clearly he already is in election mode, but it brings me hope to see the governor of the most powerful and highest economy state fighting back.
Destroying the White House physically and legally.
Seems like a metaphor for the country.
What it’s supposed to look like when done:
Can’t wait to see it filled with MickyDs.
Looks like those giant rooms in hotels where they have conventions. I wonder if it will have those walls that can open and close too.
Looks like Chabuddy G’s Champagne Steam Room
It looks like every mid tier Marriott wedding reception I’ve attended
Mormon weddings?
nah, New Jersey
Did not expect to come across a pjdn reference this morning.
Pure kuruption
Are the ghosts a new addition or were they always there
Why stop there? Just knock the whole thing down.

Its actually disgusting that a president can juat destroy an entire wing of The White House.
I mean, they regularly modify it. Sure, it’s a historical building, but it’s also an active residence, diplomatic facility, and office.
The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure.
As if he would know or care…
he would turn the whole white house gold if he can. with the gaudy giant VASES.
Now everyone who looks at a picture of the wh will be reminded of trump’s smell. Every time.
Source: my country’s former prime minister embezzled state funds to the tune of billions. He built an ugly ass megascraper visible from most parts of the city capital. I hate it.
Merdeka 118?
This building could be used for actual work and historically was. It is history. But they want to replace it with a giant party room
Whether you like it or not, THIS is going to be a part of your history moving forward. If the US survives this nightmare I hope this ballroom will serve as a reminder that this bullshit happened.
My preference (if we must have a federal government) would be to tear the whole thing down and rethink the entire office of the President.
Congress is the original core of the US federal government. It didn’t come into existence with the Constitution the way the President and Supreme Court did. It was here before the Declaration of Independence. In the strictest sense, it was here before there were states.
And if it wasn’t such a do-nothing ass scratching committee, we could make it a parliament with executive power combined into the role of Prime Minister. Don’t need a White House anymore. Almost all other modern democracies went that route rather than copying our bizarre system.
I still wouldn’t be shocked if this is his excuse to be POTUS out of mar e lago. “I can’t live in the white house while all this construction is ongoing so I’ll use my bathroom as a SCIF” (just much more incoherent and racist). Lets him massively bill the government and secret service for all the lodging and so forth. But yeah… this is generally not what you do when you are planning to leave in 3 years.
That was his exact strategy during his first term and he executed it to great effect. Millions of taxpayer dollars got funneled right back into the Trump family coffers.
Don’t stop there. Raze it all.
I hope it catches fire.
