Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, October 22, 2025

We respectfully urge the Administration and the National Park Service to pause demolition until plans for the proposed ballroom go through the legally required public review processes, including consultation and review by the National Capital Planning Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts, both of which have authority to review new construction at the White House, and to invite comments from the American people. These processes provide an essential opportunity for transparency and public engagement--values that have guided preservation of the White House under every administration going back to the public competition in 1792 that produced the building's original design. Doing so will help ensure that the project honors the exceptional historic significance of the White House and its grounds and acknowledges the investment that the American people have in the preservation of this beloved place. The National Trust stands ready to assist the White House, the National Park Service, and relevant review agencies in exploring design alternatives and modifications that would accomplish the objectives of the Administration while preserving the historic integrity and symbolism of the People's House."

The National Trust for Historic Preservation warned that President Trump's planned 90,000-square-foot ballroom would "overwhelm the White House itself," which spans just 55,000 square feet. https://wapo.st/4hmL8rC[image or embed]

The National Trust for Historic Preservation wrote in a letter that Trump's proposed 90,000-square-foot addition would "overwhelm the White House itself -- it is 55,000 square feet -- and may also permanently disrupt the carefully balanced classical design of the White House." https://cnn.it/43vQs6i[image or embed]

Well, the American people are a little bit pregnant with the ballroom concept, given that the East Wing of the WH is no longer useable. Der Dotard did it this way so that anyone with a say-so would be faced with the choice of approving the project or having a partially demolished "Peoples House" on their hands.

What I want to know is who is holding the funds for the project? That money, if it exists, should be in the hands of the GSA or the entities which NORMALLY would have responsibility over such affairs.

The ballroom tables will probably come equipped with hidden microphones so that Trumpy can spy on guests to see if they are properly loyal enough. And of course hidden cameras and mics in both bathrooms.

Harry S. Truman gutted the White House in 1948.
Teddy Roosevelt built the West Wing.
FDR built a swimming pool when he added the East Wing.
Obama added a basketball court.
Nixon built a bowling alley.
Last year it is reported the government rented several large tents for large gatherings costing over a $1 million. All of the items were paid by tax dollars
Trump is adding a ballroom paid for by private donations.

Fake like your outrage. Presidents in history have changed/added - it's not that hard to see. You however have an issue with THIS president doing it. And here's the kicker, It will always be known and the President Donald Trump Ball Room. Dedicated without the use of tax payer's money. It will be forever marked in history books. Children will learn about it in school. Be honest, that's what's giving you the ------- warts about this whole situation.

Adding tacky gold trim to the Oval office is remodeling, tripling the size of the WH to add a fucking ballroom and paving over the rose garden is grossly disrespectful to our shared heritage.

Only a cunt can't see that

Boaz couldn't care less about America or the constitution.

He only joined the army because he was a high school dropout out with zero options.

Thats why republicans are hell bent on destroying public education.

To help increase enlistment.

Oh, absolutely.

They'll have to install twenty-four hour surveillance to make sure it doesn't happen.

But Americans, being creative, will still find a way.

the White House is not his.

I wonder how many times you called the White House during Obama's term "his house"?

I would guess a lot.

You don't wonder what American treasure Trump will ruin next?

As jealous as the man is of Washington and Lincoln, I'd look that direction.

You know what? You have no place talking to anyone about ethics with your voting record and neither does Alexa.

You voted for a STUPID, fraud, racist, rapist.

Go sit in the corner, potato head.

Trump could eat a live baby on tv and lefthandturds and boaz would defend it.

C-U-L-T of personality.

"... until plans for the proposed ballroom go through the legally required..."

Legally required? Since when has that matter to these Fascists in the WH?

(definition of Fascists avail upon request)

Trump is the WORST, most corrupt, most incompetent president in the history of the United States.

In the past 10 months, the Republican Party has done nothing but make life worse for Americans.

In the past 10 months Republicans have alienated and strained relations between America and our allies. Between American and our trade partners.

Now while Americans are out of work, he's busy giving $40 billion to Argentina, building golden ballrooms to the White House and asking for the department of justice to give him $237 million. Because all he cares about is himself

Trump isn't a leader. He doesn't care about America and neither do the people who voted for him

Just wait about a month or less, when people figure out what they'll be paying in insurance rates next year.

MAGA sucks.
