After the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, MAGA influencers, GOP members, and President Donald Trump began promoting the construction of the White House ballroom. Although initially said to be privately funded, Republicans are now pushing for congressional funding for Trump’s project.
Trump immediately posted about his ballroom, arguing that its construction is a necessity for the safety of US presidents. The president argued, “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.”
