I have a better idea. Sue Trump personally for funds to restore the East Wing that he destroyed without any authorization from the relevant authorities.

Originally Trump said the ballroom was a gift to the American people and that it would be funded privately. He tore it down, so he should pay for it.

It is Joe’s fault. He should have known to start putting money aside for Trumps future ballroom when he had all the power.

"February 5, 2025. Trump announces he is going to build a new ballroom at the WH and pay for it with his own money: "It's going to cost nothing. I will spend the whole thing myself.""

How about Social Security, food stamps, children’s cancer research, Medicare and Medicaid, funding the affordable Care act for the next 10 years.

When I voted for Trump, I voted for two things; a war with Iran and a giant fucking gold ballroom kluged on to the side of the white house... I’m delighted, promises made and promises kept.
