What a disgrace. The plans for it are grotesque and keeping with his horrific interior design style. He promised that the ballroom would not affect the physical structure of the East Wing. Yeah well there was an excavator tearing off parts of the roof, walls, and interior today. Trump lied. SHOCKER. 
Amazing that the MAGA rubes believe that Trump and his donors will pay the $200 million cost for the construction. Oh he will fundraise on it, pocket the cash, and then stiff the contractors. He is notorious for that.
I am disgusted that he is allowed to do this to the White House. The good news is that Melania's work won't be interrupted because she is never at the White House or working.

This is just not in good taste at this time. He’s fired thousands of people, some workers are still required to work without a paycheck. People are hungry. Millions are getting hit with food benefits not being available. But by all means, build that ballroom. Maybe they can decorate it with the skeletons of the people he is destroying. Sounds harsh, but it’s the truth.

Maybe it will resemble that ballroom in the Haunting of Hill House or the movie of Rose Red and then the spirits wil get Trump and spirit him away,
