Trump says 'military wanted' White House ballroom: 'That was supposed to be secret

[Coldwater]

So now it's the Military's fault for destroying a third of the white house and building a ballroom

President Trump says there’s a national security component to the construction of the White House ballroom that was “supposed to be secret.”

“Now it’s no secret, the military wanted it more than anybody,” Trump said of the construction of the ballroom Thursday during a Cabinet meeting at the White House.

“It was supposed to be secret, but it became unsecret because of people that are really unpatriotic saying things,” he said.

“But doesn’t matter, it’s going to be great,” the president added.

Trump ordered the East Wing of the White House to be demolished last year in order to construct a $400 million ballroom.

1. Right... the 400 million dollar structure that dwarfs the White House was 'supposed to be a secret' bunker.

It was all 'the military's doing.'

Wanted: a much larger bus with very big wheels.

22. Look up Drey Dossier on Substack

She makes pretty coherent case that the contractors and architects finally hired have expertise to build cybersecurity facilities, AI powered data centers for military, and hardened facilities and such. Also many corporate donors may be supplying work in kind in place of cash. According to this model, the ballroom looks secondary like a cover that perhaps attracted Trump to be on board
Sorry I couldn't figure how to put a link here.

24. Thanks for the info.

And apparently the only possible location for all of that just happened to be right next door(?)

Or did all of that come later to justify the destruction of an ICONIC, historic edifice because of a no-account grifter's whim for gaudy opulence?

2. I bet there is a bunker planned beneath that ballroom.

17. 100%. All The Best Billionaires Have One.

[LoisB]

18. No doubt.

[eggplant]

21. Well, there was one (PEOC) under the last one.

[magicarpet]

34. ..... wonder if the military bunker built by ReThug contractors will,...

..... be bugged with video and listening devises wired directly to Moscow. So when/if a Dem admin ever steps foot in the White House again - and highly secret diplomatic discussions and/or war plans are being considered - Putin knows first hand what America's various plans are being kicked around and planned out before officially enacted.

If Dems now become habitually and badly out foxed by America's adversaries because the trDUMP bunker was bugged and then broadcasted to our enemies.

The GOP will use that as a weapon saying Dems are ineffectual leaders that should never be given the keys to the White House or the US Congress leadership slots ever again.

The Russians, Chinese, and other USA adversaries are always miles ahead infront of the Dems.

Because trDUMP had sophisicated surveillance and espionage systems built right in the walls, ceiling, and chandeliers.

Testing One, testing two,... Putin can you hear us ?

[Solly Mack]

14. Yes. Very touching. Then they gave Trump a golden dance trophy.

[Permanut]

28. No one's ever seen anything like it.

5. See, If you don't support his ballroom then you obviously don't support our troops.

And how could you do that when they are sacrificing for us in a time of war?? God, his manipulation is getting obvious to a 10 year old.

[Blue Owl]

6. Who believes this utter bullshit?

[maxrandb]

10. Have you met our neighbors, family members, coworkers and fellow parishioners?

As I have said many times; "Donnie Dipshit isn't the disease, he's just a symptom".

7. Gimme a m-------f------n' break!

[JohnnyRingo]

8. The soldiers are going to love watching everyone in their tuxedos and gowns

I'm sure a few in dress will be stationed at the entrances to see the billionaires in

[Justice matters.]

9. So his new lie is the military wanted it but it's privately funded?

Since when national-security builds are "privately" funding?

If he was not lying again (which he does), either one or the other is not true and doesn't make sense although he is so used to think only his stupid 35% will believe it

[malaise]

11. WTF?

Lock up this lunatic please please please!

[spanone]

12. LIAR

[ColoringFool]

15. I'm Sorry; I Didn't Take Gibberish In School.

[Klondike Kat]

19. Hogwash or horseshit

I don't know where I should file this one.

[muriel_volestrangler]

20. Can't throw a ball without some dashing young officers on the lookout for potential wives

Why, even Lydia Bennett knows that, and look how flighty she is!

[pfitz59]

31. I met my wife at a Navy Ball.

I was a dashing young O-2.

[twodogsbarking]

23. Hurry up and finish it so there can be a super dance when the orange one turns blue.

[BidenRocks]

25. The military knows they are temporary.

They do not want a fucking ballroom!

They would like a sane president!

[D_Master81]

26. Riiiiight 😂

I’m sure it was the military that wanted it. Militaries are always wanting ballrooms LOL. The guy who never shuts up about it was just forced into it by the generals. Wait til they say it was Trump that wanted the war

[RockRaven]

27. Dementia Donald cannot remember that he was supposed to keep the new bunker a secret.

Oops!

[Walleye]

29. Army, navy, and Air Force all have huge bases he could put up his stupid ballroom on without tearing up our White Hous

[CrispyQ]
