In his final speech before Iowa caucus day, Donald Trump renewed his old promise to build a lavish White House ballroom and pay for it himself.
"Every time the top people come over from China ... they put up a tent at the White House," he said, during his final event Sunday in Sioux City, Iowa. "We'll have a ballroom at the White House."

Nice of him to dig into his own pocket to cover the expense.

For security, lavish dinners must be at the WH.
The tents are getting old and are embarrassing IMO.

Trump will have to fumigate the place or bulldoze it after Obola.
I guarantee it will be months before he moves in if ever
To: Bobalu
I agree. A Trump White House would
need more ball room.

He said he offered to do it for the Obama administration, but they declined. Just like when the Obama administration turned down American Express’ offer of their credit card fraud detection software to be used for Medicare.

"Every time the top people come over from China ⦠they put up a tent at the White House," he said, during his final event Sunday in Sioux City, Iowa. "We'll have a ballroom at the White House." Very similar to JFK:
We mean to be a part of it--we mean to lead it. For the eyes of the world now look into space, to the moon and to the planets beyond, and we have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag of conquest, but by a banner of freedom and peace. We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with weapons of mass destruction, but with instruments of knowledge and understanding.
No question they should chisel obozo's face on Mt. Rushmore.

I kind of agree with you. The Donald is use to luxury. Not sure that after so many year’s the White House is luxury.
It sure will be interesting to see how this all works out.

Those are so ingenious! Where ever did you get them? I would NEVER have thought of that. I've never seen anything like it! It's so creative. I bet you could scour FR and not find anything similar! Go You!
