Trump is apparently fine with his gaudy ballroom being a deathtrap. Of course, he is. An architect warned him about inadequate emergency exits, fire containment, and noncompliance with building safety code. Trump’s response: “I am the code.”

Not compliant to local building codes ? - no occupancy permits. Better yet, stop construction, raze the structure, rebuild/restore the East Wing.

"I’m going to repeat myself, and I don’t care: I want that ballroom, if it goes up, torn down. I want the Jackie Kennedy Rose Garden put back exactly as beautiful as it was. I want all the money that #Trump and his psychopathic family have made back, and that’s just a start, #Republican enablers. 

He has ruined the integrity of the White house. Exposed the bunker so when he gets thrown the fuck out by the people, he puts the new president in danger, he will invite all his loons to destroy this place as well. We should just get a new White House.

Of course he's fine with the deathtrap ballroom. His security detail will shield and usher him away safely. Who cares what happens to the guests. PS. He left the 'h' out of c_ode

I love that Trump is so obsessed with and emotionally invested in that ballroom. Imagine how painful it's going to be for him to see it torn down.

My firefighter dad and his unit were extras in The Towering Inferno , where the plot featured a builder who cut corners. That’s all I could think of reading this m

So we can provide a completely non compliant set of plans and write “Trump Code” across them and we should be good to go. Why even submit them for approval?

I’ve seen this movie before. Rose doesn’t share the headboard with Jack when the foreseen inevitable happens. She indeed does let go.

Goes nicely you know when people are over 80 don’t drive a car anymore and don’t interfere with political discussions because it will cause a heart attack!!!

He is corrupt, has no empathy or compassion! 10 years of this incompetent buffoon aren't we all tired of the lies. He is nothing more than a 34-count convicted felon, rapist, sexual predator, liar, cheat & grifter who should be in jail. Continue to protest, boycott, push back & VOTE BLUE!!!

Hopefully it is FULL when the alarms go off. Some screaming & scrambling by obscenely rich and infamous will get some views on YouTube.

He doesn’t give a shit about that ballroom. It’s a cover for his corrupt cronies to donate money to him for favors. The end result will probably be a broken down shack with all the money that went into it in his bank account.

Being the architect of record for such a job could get you expelled from our professional organization (which might not be a big deal) and your license suspended (a much bigger deal) in any state where someone might file a complaint.

it would be a net benefit for humanity if he completed it and filled it with his cronies and they all died in a fire.

Does a ballroom have to be up to code to be demolished? Because that thing is going under the wrecking ball on day one of the next administration when Trump is gone.

If you believe Trump works for Putin (I do) then maybe a deathtrap for 900 of the Free World's dignitaries is the idea. Is that idea nuts? Well... err.. ahh... umm... no

We're gonna HAVE to tear it all down. Trump can't build his way out of a wet paper bag. He hasn't built ANYTHING that didn't fail. His only big successes were in learning the value ot Mark Burnett's crafted personna of him for licensing a false image of himself and in bankruptcy court.

Government entities can be self-inspecting, but they still have to comply with all applicable codes (at least this was the case with the college district I was working for in 2007-2010).

I wager the HVAC and ventilation system are botched--and that the waterproofing is botched--and that the sump pumps are botched, and the fire suppression system...

Unbelievable! WHEN will Americans DO SOMETHING about the fact that they have an absolutely CRAZY man as president. Of course, this means the whole fucking "ballroom" will have to be re-done - again at taxpayer expense. Or doesn't that matter anymore?

Probably true in a literal sense. Trump thinks he's the pirate boss, even without knowing about Pirates of the Caribbean. But he's not as good at it as he thinks he is. 😉

Does fire cleanse evil?! That’s a rhetorical question. “I am the code.” That statement can be generalized over to cover his view of everything. First, start with “I,” as in “I alone can fix it.” Then extrapolate from there…I am the law. I am the judge. I am the savior. I am God. I am the universe!!

The architects rendering of the Ballroom/Armaments Depository. The small entrance door is designde to prevent the communist hordes from breaking in and absconding with the armaments.

It'll be either torn down or cut down to size with fire exits. Once Dems take the House, they need to connect the company that was awarded the contract to build the ballroom and the amount of bribes tRump received for it.
