A serious question, please.. this ballroom at our White House has gone from 300 million to a billion?

[Deuxcents]

He has already knocked down the east wing and dumped the debris on a public golf course and now I’m hearing the GOP wants a billion dollars for the ballroom. Is he going to raze the rest of our White House and rebuild for a billion taxpayer dollars?

1. Trump has always said the White House is a dump.

So all along I thought he wanted to burn the WH down to the ground and rebuild.

[Deuxcents]

2. He has started demolition before we knew it and now it's too late to try and stop him with the east wing

But I’m afraid he’s gonna give the go and the rest of our WH is gonna be next. He’s trying to reshape Washington DC in his image and/or imagination

[Irish_Dem]

5. Yep. This is his plan.

[Initech]

9. Well, when you smell like that 24/7, everything is probably a massive dump.

[Blues Heron]

3. He's going to end up destroying the White House and the Kennedy Center at a minimum

Unless his dementia wins the race and puts an end to his venal and destructive impulses

[Totally Tunsie]

4. It's actually gone up to a $1.4 Billion.

He's looking for ANOTHER billion on top of the $400M from his "private donors".

He's delusional, but we already knew that.

12. Let HIM pay for it

Been waiting for the suggestion to hit the news. He broke it, he should fix it with his ill begotten gains

6. With Trump's ties to pedophilia, his involvement with a new White House would be a permanent stain on America.

[AldebTX]

7. And He Is Upset About The Federal Reserve Price Tag?

If that warrants a DOJ investigation, how about this ballroom boondoggle. Yeah fat chance

[Intractable]

8. Well, now he thinks the taxpayers will be on the hook, and not the big donors.

Why not jack up the price?

[Deuxcents]

10. Majority of taxpayers don't want to foot this project so how do we refuse to fund it?

[Intractable]

13. As Obama would say ... vote!

[JoseBalow]

11. The higher the price, the more in his pocket

Why else would he even care about a stupid ballroom?

Every single thing he does is about his own self-enrichment. Everything.

[Emile]

14. I would rather the money be spent on healthcare.

[Skittles]

15. yes, when the sheer grift is included

[RoeVWade]

16. Mexico will pay for the ballroom.

Just like they paid for the wall.

(sigh)
