He's keeping a close eye on the Rose Garden, too.

I used, at the White House, the most beautiful marble and stone available anywhere. Surfaces are very important to me as a Builder. As everyone knows, I built many GREAT Buildings, and other things, over the years. At the White House, I am very proud of the beautiful stonework we did in the Rose Garden, in this case, using limestone plus. The Rose Garden is completed, and far more beautiful than anyone ever had in mind when it was conceived of, decades ago. Three days ago, while admiring the stonework, I happened to notice a huge gash in the limestone that extended more than 25 yards long. It was deep and nasty! I started yelling, “Who did this, and I want to find out now!” — And I didn’t say this in a nice manner. I wondered, “Was it vandalism or, was it stupidity?” Lo and behold, because of the fact that we’ve installed the finest security equipment anywhere, they brought back the stupid people, with their boss watching (in sunglasses!). It was a subcontractor that was installing heavy landscaping on a steel cart that was broken and tilting badly, with it rubbing hard against the soft, beautiful stone. I love and respect great workers and contractors, but something like this should never happen. Now, I’ll replace the stone, charge the contractor, and never let that contractor work at the White House again — But, how great is the video equipment? We caught them, cold. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Maybe choosing soft, porous limestone for the big beautiful patio wasn’t a brilliant choice.

Now that this weakness has been exposed, it will probably get its own Secret Service detail to protect it.
As mentioned in the not-Tweet, it is continuously surveilled.

Yes, the golden cow in the Bible. That people worshiped in the Bible.
Do you truly believe that Trump will erect a golden statue of himself in a Whitehouse ballroom for worshipping purposes? If so, the statement is pure emotional hyperbole void and any reason.

Shouldn't the flooring be durable enough to withstand carts?

He probably got the same contractor who built the wall that fell into the Rio Grande on its own, or the one who built the wall that can be cut through with tools from Home Depot. Because illegal immigrants are unfamiliar with tools and Home Depot.

AFAIK, it’s been his fans who’ve erected the idols.

So, they're already talking about the possibility of Demolished a very expensive ballroom.
Presumably, they're talking about any demolition work required in order to clear the space for the ballroom to be built.

More unneeded work on the White House . While much needed on Mental health .And improving schools in the poor areas. Doesn't seem to matter.

Trump debuts 'Rose Garden Club' for DC insiders after he paved iconic White House spot

Speaking to dinner guests on the patio paved in white concrete, formerly a grassy lawn, Trump said the "Rose Garden Club" will admit members of Congress, senators and "people that can bring peace and success to our country."

Gold embossed stationary: 'The Rose Garden Club at the White House'​

Trump adviser Steven Cheung announced the "club" opening on social media with a picture of a gold embossed stationary sheet reading "The Rose Garden Club at the White House" sitting next to a polished silverware set.

The new design is reminiscent of the patio at Mar-a-Lago, Trump's luxury South Florida club. Yellow and white-striped umbrellas installed at the tables earlier this summer also added to the resemblance.

I wonder what the Club membership dues are? Next up after the ballroom, a nine hole golf course on the South Lawn.
