Are you sure about the private/public payment balance ?
Seems that the new WH ballroom was pitched to be as all privately financed, was it not ?
I Googled and found where an article stated that Trump and donors are pitching in with 100 million and the government earmarked 13 + 2 (15 million total) for this project.
I have no first hand knowledge.
Just what I found doing searches.
Because it’s Trump, our MSM will of course attack.
