“Just inspected the site of the new Ballroom that will be built, compliments of a man known as Donald J. Trump, at the White House,” he began in a post on Truth Social earlier this month.
"For 150 years, Presidents, and many others, have wanted a beautiful Ballroom, but it never got built because nobody previously had any knowledge or experience in doing such things — But I do, like maybe nobody else, and it will go up quickly, and be a wonderful addition, very much in keeping with the magnificent White House itself.
He is so fucking full of himself is almost unbelievable. I’m sure this will turn out just as well as the wall that’s being built and paid for by Mexico.
The man is actually worse than the piggiest resident of a sty
Turning the white house into mar-a-lago 2?!
He is the white trash of presidents
It looks like they’re getting rid of the grass that was under the seating area. They’re also putting French drains around that gathering area.
The roses and topiaries are still there, they’re just redoing the area where the chairs and tables go.
This is landscaping change is pretty low on my lists of concerns about Trump. I have a lot of greenery in my yard, and I also put gravel and stone under the seating areas.
I agree. I despise Trump. But removing a lawn and putting in hardscape, in a spot where people often gather for events, is not an insult to heritage or anything like that.
If a president that I otherwise liked did this, I wouldn’t have a problem with it.
It’s not as if a lawn is super environmentally valuable. And I doubt people spread picnic blankets and play Frisbee on this lawn - they put chairs on it and walk on it with heels and hold events and stuff. A hard surface is the right thing for that type of use.
And if a future president decides to put lawn back in, they can! It’s not as blades of grass and sandy growing medium are irreplaceable.
Ah if it’s just grass, fine. I hate grass. Always needing water or it’s gonna catch fire. And allergies to go around. Grass can go.
Let’s save all the outrage for cutting Medicare, starting wars. That’s where my ragebait is.
trump could be eating crackers and that would make me anti-cracker eating
Gonna pave it with gold toilets so he can shit together with all his friend
Dunno man, he and Elon are having quite the “will they, won’t they ruin America” moment right now. He’ll be solo for a bit.
Does this guy just sit up all day trying to find new ways to be a fucking piece of shit asshole?
No. It comes naturally from decades of practice.
It’s part of the strategy.
Overwhelm the news cycle, see what the news picks up and push that more, let the actual bad stuff go under-reported.People keep trying to attribute planning to what can be much more plausibly explained by idiocy. Trump is not “strategically” dozing the rose garden to distract from the real news, he’s just a tasteless brutish moron.
People keep trying to attribute maliciousness to stupidity as well. Mostly because it’s easier to dismiss stupidity than argue against it.
He’s shortsighted, narcissistic, and petty. But he doesn’t do things just to prove how much of a big idiot he is. Dismissing everything he does as “idiocy” just gives him more leash to piss on everyone from.
I wouldn’t say those two things are mutually exclusive, Trump is dumber than shit and also a raging malicious bastard. The Nazis were both malicious as hell and stupid as fuck.
I would argue that malice is born from stupidity.
I would say the opposite. At least for the basis of this train of thought. That maliciousness makes one single-minded in their ideals and goals, which inevitably devolves into “Get mine, fuck them”. Which is inherently destructive, both for the person in question and those around them.
Which is inherently stupid.
It’s the gish gallop of news: do as much bullshit as possible so nothing can be effectively blocked or countered.
He is. But the people around him and controlling/handling him aren’t idiots.
It’s either in project 2025, or some other republican playbook. Scattershot out a bunch of crazy news to swamp the news cycle and overwhelm everyone, then get to work doing the dirty stuff
Exactly. Yet another truly awful something is about to happen that’ll get buried under his new patio.
Yes
Yeah how you wake up at 3:00 in the morning with a great idea but by noon you realize it was stupid. Noon never comes for him.
The deck chairs on the titanic aren’t going to rearrange themselves. If It wasn’t for shit like this he’d have to actually govern
It just comes naturally to him, he’s too stupid to be this good at anything.
Magic 8 Ball says… YES DEFINITELY
it’s for parking his motor coach
Next up: painting the White House with cheap gold paint.
It’ll be expensive gold paint from one of Don’s mates
Especially the showers
Ten bucks says the next part is a statue.
This one?
spoiler
Mark that shit as NSFW, please. That’s worse than Burns’ portrait.
I really doubt his ass isn’t covered in shit.
Ok, what the fuck am I looking at? Is that actually the toddler in chief?
a big taco monument
a golden taco pissing on small orange hands with little sick looking supermario mushrooms at the bottom.

art man, art.
Cosmetic injustices like this are an intentional distraction from the regime’s attempts to steal all public funds, kill Americans who need Medicaid, continue their ethnic cleansing campaign at home and support Israel and Russia’s ongoing genocides.
How long until he changes the US flag to one with his face on?
Like his social media avatar
Oh, it will happen.
And when will he force every home and business to have a portrait of himself on the walls? Because, that will probably happen, too.
i’m perfectly capable of hanging pictures facing the wall
He’s admitted he admires North Korea’s dictator and the way he’s treated
That sounds like something he would do on July 4th
Nah, he cares about that holiday, not ones that celebrate minorities. So I’m guessing some time again this month in opposition to Pride, or Indigenous Peoples’ Day will have some bullshit. Even though Google already got rid of that from their calendars and kept Columbus.
he needs a place to bury melania.
I believe the succubus is returned back to hellfire once they depart this plane of existence.
He needs a place to be buried.
preferably in a dog park
Don’t worry! Once the newly poured concrete has cured, they’re going to cover it in gold tin foil and it’ll be fabulous.
Honestly I could totally see that happening
The rose gardes deco has gotten controversy, but a green space seems way better then drab concrete. Such a tall flagpole wont even be seen in press conferences. I bet he got stuck in some mud and got mad, and the flag pole is a vain attempt to say hes got a huge pole…
I bet he got stuck in some mud and got mad,
That really is all there is to it. Dude can barely navigate stairs. Actually walking on grass after rain makes him look dopy and his ego can’t handle it
Concrete holds a LOT of heat. A summer news appearance on it with normal
hearheat, humidity, lights could cause heat exhaustion or stroke, since the very young and elderly body temperatures have trouble regulating.Hope
Melania was expected to do something with it and she had no interest. This reflected poorly on her in a lot of people’s expectations, and so the two of them were like “fuck the rose garden.” End of story. The Trumps will never have class so they figure no one else can either.
