The Big Beautiful Ballroom

 
 
 
Sorry, Mr 333ofhearts, the key point you are missing is that it was Barack HUSSEIN Obama who did that. Does that help clarify?? Hmm??
 
The DJT Ballroom is projected to open well before the chubby one leaves office. He probably envisions emceeing some future Kennedy Center Honors from there. I would suggest another broadcast model: the 1994 Jackson Family Honors, which NBC ran in 1994. It was a one-time event; there had been talk about making it an ongoing event, but once was enough. If you're old enough to remember this show, it was beyond cringe. The Jacksons sat in a row like they were America's royalty, as various musical acts performed for their pleasure. And who better than the Jacksons to bestow honors? Were they not the ne plus ultra of the American family? Didn't we all want to be like them?
So let's have the Trump Family Honors, a three-hour extravaganza direct from the DJT Ballroom and Pavilion of the Arts. Trump + Malaria + all the Trump brats on a raised dais, while down below the musical guests perform. Roseanne to host. Musical acts Sexxy Red, Kanye, Jason Aldean, Kid Rock, and the Nuge. Presentation of The Golden Shitcoin to America's biggest crypto fraudster of the year. Competition for Most Successful Liar, a four-way runoff with Rod Blagojevich, George Santos, Jussie Smollett, and, for dark horse, Ashlee Simpson. (Yeah, I know they were caught in their lies, and mostly fessed up, but that leaves Trump with the opportunity to laugh and say, "Amateurs!!") In the final hour, with excitement mounting, will come the Trump Decapitation, an actual execution of a Deep State foe (or K______ G______, for poetic justice) , determined among the Trumps by secret ballot. Guillotine to be operated by Stephen Miller or Karoline Leavitt, based on which one, in the opinion of the family, delivers the most obsequious speech of loyalty. Sponsored by Lockheed Martin, Apple, Amazon, Coinbase, Depends, and Cialis. To be mandated viewing the following day in all Oklahoma public schools.

What’s all the hullabaloo? Trump is wrecking democracy, so it is only natural he wreck the White House.
 
Can someone do a AI thing of Epstein and Trump laughing, 25 years ago, about Trump getting a gazillion dollar "room for balling" added to the White House?

The grotesqueness of Trump's demolition abhors. Sure, the contractors he selects personally will be kicking back millions to the Trump family but that's a pittance in the scheme of things. The millions will be dwarfed by the cost of transporting public-owned treasures to Mar-a-Lago in late 2028, but that's still pittance. The total cost of Trumpism to America and to the world will be many MANY Trillions. With a capital T. Destroying the WH doesn't even make the Top Hundred List of Trump's sins and crimes.

But WHY? The Gold-plated Ballroom is unlikely to be open in Trump's lifetime. Why would this hideous man do something so certain to annoy?

Paul Krugman said:
Yes, Trump has terrible taste and probably would even if he didn’t have power and, thanks to that power, wealth. But the grotesqueness of his White House renovations is structural as well as personal. For the excess and ugliness serve a political purpose: to humiliate and intimidate. The tawdry grandiosity serves not only to glorify Trump’s fragile ego, but also to send the message that resistance is futile.

(I won't link to Krugman's substack. If you can't find it yourself you're not serious.)

Rump's MO is to stiff the contractor. To hide things in the contract to claim they were not followed, and withold payment.
And the grift. Raise $300mil. Spend $150mil. pocket the change.

Opinion | Why Trump’s East Wing Demolition Needed to Happen

The arguments against it illustrate a consistent problem with progressive stewardship of American cities.

I don't have an account so I can't read it but I've read the responses and it's mostly a very sad whataboutism.

And I just cannot believe someone has the balls to defend this crap.
