The metaphorical wrecking ball analogy takes a physical form.

[Mac1958]

That would be millions of people who aren't part of Trump's fascism MAGA cult. Those assholes are making the millions of people who supported Mussollini look good.

As I always say, the European history lesson continues. Now we know "how they could let this happen".

 

[Etymology gaslight]

Biden passed the Bar. trump made it through college cause his father paid them off. trump is a Dictator Wannabe.

I'm pretty sure a King
Trumps a dictator in this country

He just sort of showed up snuck in...
And became King of the World !

No one has told us who is paying for it? So tell me who is? it should not be a secret

It common knowledge. Open source.

President BO used taxpayer money to build the B-Ball Wing.

He added basketball hoops to an existing tennis court

Stop comparing it to a 900,000 sq ft addition

And trump and his mates can **** young girls there.

Jealous? Maybe if you lost the Hitler look, you might be able to score...

 

[Etymology gaslight]

They're more upset about this than illegal aliens and other criminals running free in this country raping and murdering people. That tells me all I need to know about the radical left.



The White House isn't getting bulldozed you idiot.

What about the
Planned New
Trump Supreme Court building.

Whooops...

 

[Etymology gaslight]

I don't see a link there, but I'm sure that you're working on that. I've provided receipts. All I see from you is you typing words but not saying anything.

It's the "provided receipts" that brought it home.

As I always say, the European history lesson continues. Now we know "how they could let this happen".

In a way I can understand why Italy joined the Axis powers in WW2. The country was on thin ice as a republic going back to the 1300's when the Bubonic Plague wiped out hundreds of thousands of people & most citizens living on the edge of poverty, etc, etc. right up to the 1930's. That's not the case here.

This is all about the cult falling in line with Trump's revenge plans & his & his appointed goon squad such as Russel Vought's plot to destroy the Federal Govt & turn the office of the POTUS into an Autocracy.

SCOTUS? Forget about them, the MAGA majority is in on it.

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.

Oh NOOOOOOOOO!, OUR DEMOCRACY, PLEASE SAY IT'S NOT SO. TELL YOUR FRIENDS.

 

[citygator]

It was customers who were upset.

That is very optimistic. If they had half the customers that posted about it they would have record sales.

What is the issue with modernization other than Trump?

It belongs to the people not Trump. I think a good steward of it would have gone through the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) like all historical buildings do and had an update that was timeless in styling and something that reflected the spirit of America. I dont think what he pulled together did that at all.

I dont mind white house construction but that addition reflects his tastes and not our history.

Yeah, that's one of the primary ways this happens: A populace is feeling desperate and hopeless, and falls for the promises of a shameless con man who says I alone can fix this. This is just boiler plate stuff, it's certainly no secret, and they STILL fell for it.

In this particular case, though, that portion of the populace had been warmed up to desperation long before the con man, by a media that had created its own insulated, paranoid propaganda system. They were all ready for him, he saw that, and he ran with it.

So while most of this is old and historical, that part of it is new.

If good old Rushblow was alive he'd be one of Trump's cabinet members. He'd fit right in with that crew.

Yes. Pay very close attention to what is happening in Europe. The WEF is taking control. Europe is becoming as dominated and controlled as China.
Watch what is happening to the citizens of the UK and decide if we want that to be our demise also. Muslim rule, citizens jailed for their own opinions, and flying their own flag. Canada is setting up 15-minute cities that will monitor every move you make and every dime you spend. And then they will take the dime away.
We either stand up to tyranny, or we kneel to their demands. Teach your children how to kneel to authority, too. Because this is going to be so much worse for them...
