Tone Deaf Trump Shredded For Bragging About Ballroom As The World Burns
Never mind that Trump and his buddy Bibi just literally set the world's entire economy on fire with their attack on Iran. Trump spent time showing off pictures of his new ballroom on Air Force One this Sunday, and was promptly shredded for it on social media.
And even the ballroom is another debacle and facing court challenges, as Reuters reported while discussing Trump's tone deaf comments this Sunday:
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday that the planned White House ballroom was "ahead of schedule and under budget" despite a lawsuit that seeks to halt the project.
Trump showed off new renderings of the ballroom as he defended the project, which required the demolition of the White House East Wing. "We're doing very well, so we're ahead of schedule," Trump told reporters on Air Force One as he returned to Washington on Sunday evening after a weekend at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida.
The ballroom has faced legal and political challenges, including a lawsuit from the National Trust for Historic Preservation alleging the administration bypassed required reviews and public input. A federal judge has said he will decide by the end of March whether to issue an injunction halting the project while the lawsuit proceeds.
