President Donald Trump might not “think about Americans’ financial situation” as his approval ratings continue to sag amid his unpopular Iran war and failure to address cost-of-living issues, but he appears to be very in tune with the mental health of at least one group of workers — those who are toiling on the White House ballroom he has been obsessing over for nearly a year.
Writing on Truth Social Wednesday, the president said there are “hundreds of happy construction workers” working on what he described as “building the finest Ballroom/Military complex anywhere in the World” just a day after a five-vote majority on the Supreme Court — including the three justices he appointed during his first term — allowed the controversial construction project to continue by pausing a lower court’s decision to halt it in response to a lawsuit from a preservation group.
