"President Donald Trump, a longtime developer, is overseeing the construction of a $200 million, 90,000-square-foot ballroom that will remake the East Wing of the White House, effecting one of the biggest changes to “the People’s House” in a century."

The project will be funded by MAGA donors and is planned to start in the Fall.

“They’ve wanted a ballroom at the White House for more than 150 years, but there’s never been a president that was good at ballrooms — really good, in fact,” Trump said at a news conference Thursday, adding: “When they have big events — you entertain the president of China, the president of any place — and you have big crowds, they’ve always had a tent.”

I would have thought a big change like this to the White House would have to go through Congress. Not that it would matter with this congress but still, seems like yet another overstep by the president.

And almost as classy.
The dude likes gold. What are you going to do? He and donors are providing this amenity for all future presidents.

Not my choice, but colors can be changed in the future.
