patweisers44 864 Posted 4 hours ago From what i read this is all privately funded. I guess you can complain about it being gaudy looking or whatever, but it shouldnt be an issue of taxpayers paying for this. I would have to guess other renovations have been done there in 200+ years, no? So not sure the issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So not sure the issue I think this whole thing is overblown, but it does illustrate Don's complete inability to focus on anything other than his own whims. I read somewhere that the area being demolished is where the first ladies' offices were. Since Melania doesn't use them, he thought "ah, fock it, I want a ballroom" and started tearing it down. I keep hearing he won't be POTUS again, but he sure doesn't act like he's a temporary steward of the People's House. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They want a ballroom because for decades every time they host events they do it with tents 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of all the things you might complain about, this has got to be pretty low on the list. I guess it depends on the level the President has affected you.
