Trump Ballroom Unlikely To Be Built

Trump got approval to tear down the East Building and build a new building from Congress?

Could you link to the legislative action that did that please. Below is the link to where you can source this action by Congress.

/—-/ Try and keep up with the news. He didn’t need congressional approval. Unless to think PBS lies.

That is not Congress.

Frankly, I can't think of a better metaphor for the whole Trump Regime. They are very good at tearing things down, but they suck at actually building anything.


In October, Donald Trump traumatized all true patriots by tearing down the East Wing of the White House. The move, he claims, will clear the way for a ballroom for holding large events that are typically held in tents on the South Lawn. A debate immediately arose online over whether or not the next Democratic president should tear down the ballroom or keep it, albeit with the necessary extensive renovations to remove all the tackiness Trump brings to any project.

Two months later, it increasingly seems that such discussion was a wasted effort, as the chance this ballroom will actually be built is rapidly disappearing. Perhaps it could have if Trump had delegated the management of the project to someone competent, but that’s not what he did. Instead, the famously lazy and disorganized president decided to blow off his actual governance duties in favor of micromanaging a construction project he is incapable of handling. Finishing the ballroom in the next three years would be difficult for anyone, but it’s quickly becoming clear it will be nearly impossible for the famed real estate tycoon to pull it off.

For anyone who has dealt with any renovation project more complex than patching drywall, the ballroom’s construction is waving every red flag possible, signaling endless delays that will stretch for months — and, in all likelihood, for years. Despite announcing plans for the ballroom in July, it’s clear there’s no idea what it’s going to look like, how big it will be or how it will be laid out. Trump keeps changing things, driven by a short-sighted impulsiveness that keeps pushing him to expand the scope of the project. Initially, it was supposed to seat 650 people in 90,000 square feet, but he kept throwing tantrums about how he wanted it bigger. Earlier this month, he even ran off the initial architect, and odds are that will happen again.

Then there’s the red tape. Even though a judge ruled against the National Trust for Historic Preservation in their lawsuit to temporarily halt construction, he required the White House to avoid building anything foundational and demanded plans for the structure be submitted by the end of the year. But as the White House hasn’t even scheduled meetings with the National Capital Planning Commission to start the process, meeting that deadline appears unlikely.
People who say it 'can't be built' don't know Trump. This follows a familiar pattern: Leftwingers naysay. Conservatives get it done.
 
The fault in your statement is that Trump is renovating his own house. I could care less what he does with Mar A Lago on his own dime.

The White House though is owned, operated, and maintained by the American people.

Obama? Deflection noted.

Obama made changes to the White House while he was living there. Was he wrong to assume that was his house for the duration and was he wrong to order changes to the house?

As pointed out before Congress authorizes a budgetary line for repairs, maintenance, and monitor renovations. About $2.5 Million.

What building as part of the White House complex did Obama raise to the ground and then build while new building for $400 Million without Congressional action in accordance with the United States Code, the text of which was already provided?

Congress MUST be involved if it's TAXPAYER money involved.

This isn't, thus Congress has ZERO input.

You do not say why you are OK with democrat renovations to the White House at government cost while strongly objecting to Trump's renovations and upgrades art private cost.

/—-/ Simple. Everything Trump says and does must be criticized and blocked.
