Trump: "This is the ballroom and it's gonna be something incredible. On top of the roof we're gonna have the great drone empire that you've ever seen. And it's gonna protect Washington."

Speaker at Trump endorsed Rededicate 250 ceremony claims that god made Trump president so Trump could build the White House ballroom. Stranger than fiction. If you believe this guy, he's also got a bridge to sell you. #momsky #sheshd #voterizer

For Trump and his friends: - A $1.8 billion slush fund, paid for by you. - A $1 billion ballroom, paid for by you. For you and other American taxpayers: - Millions kicked off health care. - Highest gas prices in 5 years. - Soaring costs for groceries and other necessities.

Trump said we can't afford Medicaid. Can't afford SNAP. Can't afford to keep people fed or healthy. But he wants money for a ballroom. An Arc de Trump. And now a White House helipad. Apparently, we can afford anything — as long as it's for Donald Trump.

The last thing someone who dances like this needs is a ballroom.

Trump tore down nearly half the White House, without approval, then told you this ballroom would not cost any taxpayer money. Now, Republicans are requesting $1 Billion of your money for security features related to it. #ballroominflation https://bit.ly/4tdZaAg

In 1994, a man crashed his small plane into the White House. Clinton did not build a ballroom because of it. In fact he barely mentioned it. And he definitely did not say that no one can criticize him anymore.

New: Republicans are split on using taxpayer funds to build Trump's ballroom Graham/Britt/Schmitt announce a bill to male taxpayers foot the $400 million cost. Numerous Rs tell @nbcnews.com it should be done with private money. Dems remain opposed. Uphill climb. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

MAGA accounts are pushing Trump’s White House ballroom as the solution to last night’s shooting. A ballroom isn’t the problem here. Will every school get a ballroom to protect our students?

Americans can't afford food or gas, but we'll have magnificent new granite against beautiful white walls stripped of paints and flame finished in the ballroom almost nobody will ever set foot in.

“It does seem that the president and the people around him are spending most of their time either working on the ballroom or trying to get rich off this war,” says Sen. Chris Murphy.

A throne with a golden toilet just went up on the National Mall, in front of the Washington Monument, protesting Trump’s grandiose White House renovations. It includes a roll of toilet paper that reads “The Secret Handshake,” from the same group responsible for the statue of Trump and Epstein.

While your gas prices spike because of his war, Trump is focused on the kitchen-table issues that matter — like whether he should use marble or onyx on his ballroom.

So Trump is building a ballroom, new Kennedy Center, some stupid arch, a 100,000 seat stadium...etc. The list keeps growing and no one in congress is checking him. Where is the money coming from? We know HE isn't paying for it. 🤬

Trump is clearly not well. At a meeting with oil industry CEO’s Trump suddenly interrupts his introductory remarks, gets up and looks out the window and starts talking about his ballroom. Trump then realizes his mistake and says “unusual time to look”, and sits back down to continue.

Amazon, Apple, Comcast, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, Union Pacific Railroad. They all shoveled money to Trump's ballroom — and could win big from friendly treatment from the admin on active antitrust deals and lawsuits. Is this bribery in plain sight? I'm pressing for answers.

We are $38 trillion in debt, millions are about to go hungry, and he's busy building himself a gilded ballroom. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...
