What? Are they building it out of pure gold bars? How can a ballroom cost that much unless Trump is building a $50 million ballroom and pocketing the remaining $550 million.

Rebuild the East Wing and take the money from his personal accounts to do it

As a contractor, in normal times, a contract from the WH would be a crowning achievement, but now it’s a thorn. See the great work of contractors with the algae laiden pool…. Sad

If this is the case, then for consistency and to prove there is no lawfare going on, the DOJ should investigate Trump for fraud as they tried doing to Jerome Powell for an alleged over budget project.

Maybe next time we can elect a president that is working on our behalf instead of themselves

All of the real cost will be paid by the taxpayers of the country that elected that buffoon. Again. The money he said he’d provide for the works? Never going to materialise

Affordability?

The ENTIRE COST is bore by TAX PAYERS. Individual donors don't get to earmark (buy) specific reforms because that BYPASSES THE LEGISLATURE

It isn’t a ballroom, but the Calvinball Room. It is a monument to greed, with a fortified bunker.

Trump lies. Trump always lies. Trump has always been a con artist.

The American people do not want a ballroom! Have we no say?

Seize all Trump assets. Let him watch the rebuilding of the East Wing as it was from a jail cell.

Fuck that bullshit!!!

I don't mind paying $300 million for their jail. And all we have to do is sit back and let time pass. bsky.app/profile/bonn...

the criminal will keep pushing as he will store some of that for himself.

That orange motherfucker!

Guess there are many grifters who were left out of Trump's initial ballroom cost & are now coming out of the woodwork with their hands out with Trump blessings to take their turn to dig into taxpayers pockets.🤨🤣

BTW Where is his FREE JET that has cost taxpayers $900M to refurbish and upgrade The FREE JET THAT HE IS KEEPING WHEN HE LEAVES OFFICE Where is it????

Plus Republicans want to give him an additional $2B of taxpayer money for the ballroom I had heard before that the total expected cost of his ballroom would be over $2Billion, back when he was saying $200M He was lying from the get go

Lots of open pockets to feed.

The scam just gets scammier. Next they'll be demanding Best Buy gift cards

Wow, the White House looks like GAZA. 😼

Trump is bankrupting America. He's killing Social Security in the process. All of our hard-earned retirement used up to pave walkways with Italian marble, gold to gilt statues and rename buildings for himself. And fly around the world to golf or kiss ass for gifts for him and him alone. 😼

It’s an escape bunker.

Trump is a PEDOPHILE!!!!

Hell no. Not a bloody nickel!

Can we please just provide health care to those in need?

Did anyone really expect Trump would spend a penny of his grifted money on this?

Please note $$$ doesn’t matter. He never pays. It is not a concern. Like the inflation he loves. Like the tariffs hike consumer debts. He moves on whatever he wants (do it, ask permission later or not at all.) He is gaining wealth while robbing the country. Starving kids to feed his greed. 🪦soon pls

And Jerome Powell was over budget?????????????

he can pay for it. he destroyed the east wing.

No sympathy from anyone else. Only got yourselves to blame

BS! We were always paying 100% for it. Any money from "donors" was a direct bribe to Trump for their $50B in contracts.

Epitaph to a Rapist

We need to bleed Dump's bank account dry to repair his damage. Lawsuit-arama.

One thing Trump has brought out into general public scrutiny: every one of those ballroom contractors will be overpaid by a factor of 10x. At least. With a cut going to "the Big Guy," natch. I, for one, am more aware now that my country spends way too much on our military, most of it corrupt.

Not half, all.

Not long until the debt hits 40 trillion. fiscaldata.treasury.gov/datasets/deb...

Loving how the government has been borrowing from us all to line its own pockets. They're practically rolling out the red carpet for this whole "grift-a-thon." Time to reclaim what's ours, right? Like, really reclaim it before it's all gone.

He knows his time’s limited so the purpose of this ‘ballroom’ will be to house his ornate sarcophagus in the bunker or ‘tomb’. The ‘tomb’ containing his gold trinkets will be sealed but not hidden as his name will be in gold on the bunker door to advertise his presence. To visit - crypto only.

Why try to remove him and his "supporters"? Lock them all in there...forever.

Weird cause he'll be dead way before it could be built 🤷

Watch for Trump's deadline for completion of construction and arming his 'Fort Trump' and you'll learn his time-frame for starting the insurrection/revolution he plans to use to stay in power.

WTF IS WRONG WITH WITH PEOPLE? THERE'S NO WAY IN THE LIVING FUCK THAT'S THE COST. STILL BELIEVING FALSEHOOD BULLSHIT COMING OUT OF THE MOUTH OF A guy WHO LIES EVERY SINGLE SECOND? SMMFH DAMN

I think we can all scream a collective WTF!

Did Hitler kill himself in a bunker? Yes he did. 🤔

This could be a Polymarket bet. I'd go with 60%.

I assure you that those estimates are low. The US government has long embraced the cost overrun and never more so than under Dipshit's "leadership."

They lie as easily as they breathe.

He's always been the worst kind of con man salesman, a bait and switch hustler, constantly spewing ridiculous lies and superlatives about his magical powers. It's only gotten worse except now it's about our own nation's Treasury.

Like Mexico was going to pay for the wall.

Mexico is gonna pay for the wall. trump is wasting our hard-earned money on his vanity projects while we are all one serious illness away from losing our homes. NOt pissed enough.

It’s staggering these idiots could still believe Trump would pay for anything himself Remember: the scandal with his charity was that he collected donations from OTHER people to then distribute and pretend the donations were HIS. He does not pay for anything that doesn’t personally benefit him

Yup

It's like he's playing with Monopoly money and we're about to be his next bankruptcy.

Inflation is bad enough but then once you add in the kick-backs...woooo!

Didn't trump want to arrest Jerome Powell for going over budget? Rules for thee, not for me.

He needs it though he’s been forced to wear a bulletproof diaper 🤣 bsky.app/profile/midd...

The Moneylaundering Room. #fixed

Trump and friends pay for it all. It was never approved of by Congress..

NO!

F NO!!!

How to Bankrupt a Casino in Three Easy Steps seems to have a government application. A fool and his money are soon parted but a cretin and our money might as well be burned by the Reflecting Slough.

And who is that money being paid too??

Too bad we're going to destroy it and erase his name from history.

Imploding

The ballroom is Trump's personal project, not authorized by Congress. The next President, immediately after inauguration, should freeze all Trump and Trump org assets until he pays to remove the ballroom and replace it with an exact replica of the East Wing.

Surprising, no one.

“Ballroom” is code for “fortress” in which fascists can hide. It’s obvious.

But but I thought it was going to be built from donations?…

If this tower to babel is ever built the american people need to treat it like the end of the berlin wall. Piece by piece.

To hell with Trump's damned "ballroom!" That money must be spent on actually making things better for all Americans.

He doesn't need a ballroom he can just the cage on the lawn or the patio where Jackie's Rose garden was or the Reflecting pool where the algae is blooming. All things we will have to tear down, fix and replant. And we will!!!

Mike Johnson for god sake took a extended recesses while major legislative reforms remained stalled. We pay for a ballroom while they sit on their f asses? F BS! Im so disgusted right now I can puke. What a disgrace.

I am not surprised.

Congress must refuse to allocate $600 million dollars for Trump's ballroom. Let Trump pay for everything. He can sell his $ 400 million dollar airplane from Qatar. Trump is a billionaire who has grifted billions as president. The American people do not support paying for the ballroom.

STOP this bullshit ballroom

It the same as Mexico is paying for the wall.

Trump has the key to AMERICA'S resources Welcomes the criminals of the world In criminal law, modus operandi refers to a method of operation or pattern of criminal behavior so distinctive that separate crimes or wrongful conduct are recognized as the work of the same person.

Where's the other $400 million going? Follow the money!

But Harvey Levin says we are elitists for being anti circus at the white house

That's a hard no.

JUST PUTTING IT OUT THERE… What's all this about all the medical facilities underneath the ballroom? Is he building some kind of life extension medical lab down there? You know his best friend Lootin Putin has invested in medical trends/techniques…

Puerto Rico has had no water for two weeks now. 15 Minneapolis protesters raided this morning & arrested by Todd Blanche for their roles in Minneapolis protests. THESE ARE THE STORIES Not Trump has a “plan” I’ll gladly tell you on Friday (right when Obama’s library opens w/star-studded cast)

Got DAM this man...

Well, at least they'll be offering free ballroom dancing classes open to the public 2 evenings a week, so I guess it's worth it

You Know What Happens When A Contractor Does Something Illegal...??? The Contractor Has To Repair The Damage.

Cost of gas = $4.50 a gallon Price of an insurrection payoff? = $1.776 billion Price of a ballroom? =$600 million Price to tear down Donald Trumps ballroom? PRICELESS!!!!!!!

It's on hold right?

But of course.

Who’s surprised by this?? NO ONE.

#TrumpCrimeFamilyForPrison #TrumpPedoFiles and #EpsteinBallroom

It can’t be true Trump said otherwise 😭💀

Yup, and then he will tell us our National Debt is too high so he and the GOP will try to cut SS and Medicare, by 22%, all to be done after the mid-terms……….he is robbing this country blind and also taking us broke………gotta vote them out………….

We don't want this! Where are our Representatives in Congress?

Well, butter my butt and call me biscuit. Who ever would have thought that we could trust a convicted fraudster with our tax money?

Sure, but no money for healthcare subsidies, medical and scientific research or anything else that actually helps people.

For anyone who hadn’t figured it out yet, this is how Trump bankrupted 6 companies and countless failed business ventures.

This clusterf**k has GOT to be stopped. Somehow.

STOP IT! STOP tearing up our house!!! Such disgrace.

As if this whole nonsense about the cost of the ballroom is somehow a legitimization of the destruction of the E Wing. Whoever tore it down must be responsible for restoring it. Screw the ballroom & The Felon who acted w/o any legitimacy. And screw the Republicans in Congress for dereliction of duty

Sue the contractors for destroying the East Wing without proper environmental, building or historic approvals. Trump’s DOJ has basically acknowledged it was done illegally in a rush to eliminate challenges. Sue them all for damages and restitution funds on behalf of we the people. It’s OUR house.

Trump should pay the total price personally. He is responsible fir destroying the building.

That would have more than funded my social security payments I've paid into for decades.

And pigs can fly.

$10 million to build the ballroom/Hitler bunker; $590 million to trump's pocket. But we can't have health care.

Sue him for it

Musk should be prosecuted for vandalizing several government agencies, and if found guilty, fined $1T, plus have SpaceX nationalized and turned over to NASA.

Why is this even a conversation we are having? This orange menace is actively stealing from taxpayers, full stop.

If they can't stop this thing from being built... my hope is that once the orange shit stain is gone, the ballroom should be turned into a museum dedicated to the history of black brown and indigenous people. Also, have a library filled with all the books these racist assholes banned

It won’t even be finished by the time he is out..

We do not want it! It is waste!

and no one is talking about what the day-to-day cost on taxpayers for the ongoing operation of the monster ballroom. It is gonna be a boatload more money, not going to help us in anyway, but for rich people parties. Not pissed enough.

For the 100th time. There is no mechanism for private donors to pay for ANY of this. Please stop repeating or inferring they can.

This is exactly why he started knocking walls down before it was approved. Now they have to push forward, there’s no going back.

And how much of it will go to no-bid contractors that will give him a kick-back? I'm guessing at least 30% maybe more
