Trump’s Ballroom Design Has Barely Been Scrutinized

His classic contractor grift. Hire a handful of companies and 2/3 of them are owned by friends and family and jack up fees like 50 dollar nails and screws and then bail on the project and collect insurance while burning one of your friends and family while the rest make money. 

Trump's already bumped up his grift to at least $10B. This is now a small grift. The money raised for his presidential library has disappeared.

Seriously. Who the heck cares about a building wing in DC? It’s not like THIS is what America’s reputation around the world during his term has been flushed in the shitter because of.

That’s why we need journalists, who have the means and skills to ask questions and report on what they find. Otherwise the right is continually allowed to say “oh well surely presidents have the power to make updates to the White House right?” But a journalist can spend the time to show how this is not the same at all. Frankly at this point I would be fine if he bull dozed the entire White House. I’d love to see Scott Jennings on CNN and the whole congress come up with an explanation that they have to continually repeat to make it sound sane.

tl;dr "*I'm still gonna get Mexico to pay for that wall, just as soon as we finish this war and my new ballroom*"
