The metaphorical wrecking ball analogy takes a physical form.

Part of White House Is Reduced to Rubble. Trump’s Ballroom Will Rise in Its Place.​

The facade of the East Wing of the White House came crumbling down on Monday as construction began on President Trump’s 90,000-square-foot ballroom, a project that will transform one of the most recognizable buildings in the world and nearly double the size of the existing structure.

Having already changed so much about the way Washington works, he is increasingly changing the way Washington looks.

The East Wing was one of the last pieces of the White House complex he hadn’t yet started to make over in his own image. The Oval Office is dripping in gold and so is the Cabinet Room. The Rose Garden looks like Mar-a-Lago. There are massive flag poles in the backyard and in the front. He’s been tweaking the White House residence upstairs, too. He’s directing renovations at the Kennedy Center, and now he wants an Arc de Triomphe-style arch built on the other side of the Potomac.


It has been referred to as the "people's house." But as with everything else in the country trump is trying to rebrand it. Words can not express my disgust.

It's apparently not enough that he's tearing down the legal and ethical foundation of the country. He wants to destroy a physical manifestation of our history as well.
More detail here!

 
You can't come up with a link saying that he needs Congressional approval. However, I can come up with a link saying that any President doesn't need their approval. LINK So, you can dislike it all you want, but you can't make the claim that it's illegal and be right. You can have your own opinions, but you can't have your own facts.

He is tenant of the WH, he does OWN the WH. He need approval from Congress for renovations. MAGA had shit fit over Michelle Obama's vegetable garden.
 

Building protection in the US​

Is there any such thing ?
Yes and it is abused.
Developers seem to be able to bulldoze historic buildings on a whim.
if they are designated historic they cannot be bulldozed or even modified
The white house does give off a plantation vibe but in american terms it is a historic building.
Yeah, thats those born and raised in NYC types for ya
There must be some protection ?
from who and/or what?

He does NOT need Congressional approval unless there are tax dollars involved, which there are not.
He had to consult with the White House architect and sign off on building permits and BOOM, it's done.

First of all Trump isn't tearing the white house down he's renovating it. Second of all he lives there, and third of all the last time I checked he's the president of The United States and he can do whatever he wants to as he's not breaking any laws.





I think that it looks beautiful.

Because they're a bunch of rebels without a clue.
 
Also I forgot to add that it isn't costing tax payers anything either as it's coming from Trump's own pocket so the left has absolutely nothing to complain about.

Oh, the anti-Trumptards always have something to complain about. I've never seen a more selfish, self-absorbed bunch of butt hurt sore losers in my entire life. If we could only sell them for what they believe they're worth.

Its an important building for trumpy. Its where his insurrection started.
To me the wings are where the administration does business. The most important room is the Oval Office. The east wing will still do business and e massively upgraded. And most likely, the first lady will have an office.
