    It’s all about that new ballroom. Construction has halted due to a lawsuit from the National Trust and Republicans now argue it’s vital for both the Don’s health and safety. You can’t make this shit up.

      He should be forced to put the whitehouse back exactly as it was before, brick by brick and pay for it personally. Wrecking the whitehouse before the 250th is probably hilarious to his handlers in the Kremlin

      Imagine being so rich and entitled that you demand everyone else in the country spend $1 billion to build a facility that will (just partially) give you medical attention.

      Now imagine being elected to represent the people who the rich guy wants to pay for that, and spending your term not representing those peoples’ interests but instead finding new ways to justify giving the already rich guy their money.

      Now imagine being the voters living paycheck to paycheck and seeing both of these things, and being like, “Well, at least it isn’t Kamala.”

      At this point my head hurts and I can’t imagine any more for some reason.

      you ain’t gonna convince any of the majority of people who don’t want the ballroom in the first place, to approve of a different use of the same fucking space as a facility to keep an ailing moron-in-chief alive.

        Yes but now they spin the narrative that some people are actively hurting potus and endangering MAGA. Blocking the ballroom is domestic terrorism!!!

          Trolling on a national and international level is their version of governing. Meanwhile the Rapepublibcans in Congress and SCOTUS soil the nation for generations to come
