I definitely appreciate how we now have the perfect image for what MAGA is doing to America. But seriously, can you leave the East Colonnade that was designed by f'ing Thomas Jefferson alone? And maybe not build a gaudy monstrosity the size of Madison Square Garden than completely dwarfs the White House?
The issue with the White House demo is as it almost always is with Trump - rules and norms and perceptions don't apply.
Every other President before him would have been castrated by the media not just for doing this but all the grifting and lying that led up to it - the "privately funded" ballroom that's really just an accumulation of bribes from anonymous donors and corporations; saying he's not going to touch the East Wing and then just demolishing the whole thing; skipping regulatory and Congressional steps that are normally required or abided by; not paying a bit of attention to scale or cohesiveness in the design and decking it out in gold because he's his typical self-aggrandizing, trashy, and gaudy self...
It's hilarious that him taking bribes to fund unilaterally demolishing half of the White House is considered "not a big deal" for his presidency by some.
What's telling is that relatively speaking, they're absolutely right. He's so constantly flooding the zone with malfeasance and bull**** that it actually doesn't rate.

FLASHBACK: 2010
Direct from the mouth of CNN,
$376 MILLION Renovations on
White House during OBAMA!
I just wonder who paid for it?pic.twitter.com/ky8NTYEolD
MSM: Obama "renovates" White House…
Smapty cheers!
Also MSM: Trump "demolishes" White House…Smapty weeps.
This is more misleading, bad-faith partial information that y'all are thirstily drinking down.
Obama didn't decorate the White House to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.
He updated a tennis court so he could play basketball on it, and had a few million dollars in aesthetic updgrades.
The rest of the projects were allocated before he arrived and/or major structural/electrical/mechanical/telecommunications/remediation work that was decades overdue.
Again, the objections here are the lying/grifting/bribing/scale/regulatory circumvention issues. Obama didn't do any of that. No past president did either.
Translation: Obama good, Trump bad…got it.
The " bubububut Obama just renovated tennis courts to a basketball court so he could play on it" is a stellar one. lol. It's hard to believe grown men behave like this.
