"Military, Secret Service, Law Enforcement & every President for the last 150 years have been DEMANDING a ballroom"

[Miles Archer]

Trump doubled down on his ballroom demands on Sunday morning, posting to Truth Social that “this event would never have happened” if the ballroom was already built.

“What happened last night is exactly the reason that our great Military, Secret Service, Law Enforcement and, for different reasons, every President for the last 150 years, have been DEMANDING that a large, safe, and secure Ballroom be built ON THE GROUNDS OF THE WHITE HOUSE,” he wrote. “It cannot be built fast enough!”

7. We Can Ask 3 Living Ex-Presidents

I'll bet all 3 would say they never asked for such a thing nor did they even entertain the notion.
The lying is so natural that he never even considers how easy that would be to check.

4. only if you, Mr. President, NEVER EVER leave the ballroom

In fact, to protect you even more we should make sure to put bars are all the windows ( well, you say they will be made of really thick bullet proof glass, so that might be ok ). But just to make sure you are not disturbed, we will cut off all communication with the rest of the world, starting with the the West Wing and residence.

Hmmmmm, sounds like a plan. Lets build it. but really... much much smaller... say 6 x 9. With a toilet an cot.

5. Trump just gets more crazy as the days pass and yet, the media is silent.

oh, a few LW stations are not silent but not enough nor are they loud enough.

6. Anywhere a President shows up is safe ...

... except Dallas and playhouses in DC.

8. I wonder if all the gold he's glued to the Oval Office has repellent qualities and that's why he needs more and more

to protect himself from reality.
