This is a completely meaningless statement Constitutionally.

Ok, fine.  Have it your way.  I'm not voting for Trump ever again.

There are about 8 paragraphs to be written on this, but I’ll just say it’s a monument, it’s the property of the American people and go look at Section I of the Constitution about appropriation. Its constantly disappointing & bizarre that people who think of themselves as conservative Republicans are the ones constantly calling for it to be struck through.

Well, then I'm assuming that the Dems will use section 1 of the constitution then & squash this whole thing, being illegal and all?

I couldn’t care less about this, but I will laugh at the tacky makeover when it ends up looking like a disco from Scarface.

The American people have chosen Trump to be in charge of such things.

At what point do we stop trump from remodeling the white house?  If he has billions in private funds to test it down and build a tower, we good with that?

I think you should get over there pronto and climb the fence to stop them. Report back on how it goes.

Well, it is Trumps money, right?

California taxpayers are paying for all of it. 

Currently costing at least $1.1 billion, the price of a football stadium.

The Trump Dance Hall and Official Event Space won’t be undone. It’s like the size of the current WH.

When he’s finished here he should put his head on top of the Washington Monument like a giant Pez dispenser.

Make sure the giant waxed puusay he calls a neck is on there too.

TBF, the video seems to show only taking down what looks like a porch.

But the symbolism of the photo is pretty funny.

I guess you have to just laugh at this point.

I hope it’s actually going to be his throne room.

So it does now appear that they’re taking down more than just the porch thing.  But, multiple past presidents had construction done to the WH, so this probably isn’t that out of the ordinary.  Although, I’d be curious if any of those happened this soon into the President’s term…i.e, was there planning for this going on before the election?

Also, this is pretty dang ugly:

omg I searched the entire bored for outrage when previous presidents did renovations and couldn't find any liberal threads

[The Real timschochet]

In 20 years from now when President Mamdami adds a mosque to the east wing, you guys will be OK with it right? So long as it came from private funds?

To be fair, there probably hasn’t been a renovation comparably extensive since Truman.

so the renovation is ok, but the size of the renovation isnt, cause Trump

you realize every time they hold events they have to set up a tent, a freaking tent in the white house grounds.  Surprised this hasn't been built before

He could have started off just telling the truth. He then acts like little betch when asked why is the East Wing getting bulldozed.

It’s the same thing over and over again with this dude.

Oh it’s not listed anywhere? 

Why did he indicate that his scam lawsuit against the government could hep pay for this if it’s all paid for.

If you ask him he freaks out and starts acting like a whiny betch and won’t answer and all the bozos start clapping like trained seals.

I have seen a bunch of companies listed that he squeezed but nothing official or totals. That’s neat!

I don’t necessarily have an issue with this being built although it looks kind of crazy how giant it is.

I would like to know how it was paid for. He could try not lying about that. This is important. I don’t understand people not wanting to know that.

Again the fockhead lies about it, creates the issue, then acts like a total spaz. It’s the same thing nonstop with this dude, he’s sloppy as hell.

Yawn. Yeah kind of want to know where a Prez gets a few hundred million for his project that completely changes the look of the WH.

Would also appreciate him answering basic questions about it without melting down - since it’s totally different than what he said.

Crazy!

So you really believe that Trump has the ability to write a check from The White House account to pay for a new ballroom? 

You're an idiot if you believe that
