The White House magnificently trolls Dems about the East Wing renovations

[E. Pluribus Unum]

There’s a saying on the conservative internet that “the left can’t meme.” While conservatives have proven adept at churning out punchy, ironic, and relevant memes, both visual and verbal, leftists respond with ponderous diatribes that consist of walls of words and muddy, confusing images. In a world of 3-second attention spans, their messaging fails dismally.

It turns out that our White House can meme very well, too. Nothing more perfectly exemplifies this than the official White House website response to the Democrat hysteria regarding the upgrade that President Trump is doing to the East Wing of the White House.

James Hoban’s original design for the White House. Public domain.

As we are all aware, the East Wing was constructed during World War II to accommodate the surge of office workers flooding the government during the war. Additionally, it may have been added to obscure the fact that the White House was upgrading its underground military headquarters and adding a bomb shelter.

The old building’s history isn’t very interesting, and it wasn’t an architectural gem. Instead, it was a warren of rooms, including the First Lady’s office (since Rosalynn Carter’s era), as well as lesser facilities, such as the calligraphy office and a small movie theater.

Meanwhile, White House entertaining has been taking place in small, 19th-century rooms that hold fewer than 200 guests for a reception. For the most important, and one of the most populous, nations in the world, that’s ridiculous. Large receptions have been held in tents, with guests trudging over to portable toilets. It’s third-world political theater for a first-world country.

So, the Trump administration acted. With private donations, Trump developed a plan for a large space that can accommodate up to 1,000 guests and features numerous bathrooms. It also features spacious and modern...

Cocaine Discovered
During Biden’s administration, a U.S. Secret Service agent discovered a small, zippered plastic bag containing cocaine in the West Wing entrance lobby. Speculation has pointed to Hunter Biden, an admitted drug user. Additional evidence includes a laptop, seized in 2019, which contains photos of frequent drug use alongside emails about foreign business dealings (Ukraine, China) involving his father, Joe, while he was Vice President.

I was on the White House website the other day and saw this “history timeline”. I wanted to see what the East Wing looked like and what the changes involved. What a HOOT!

Well done President Trump.

Just checked - the deadbeat freeploading Loser Bookschlep doesn’t seem to have gotten on the Q4 2025 Free Republic donors board.

Trump’s White House troll staff actually put this stuff on the official White House website.

It’s glorious.

“We are a dynamic and important nation, and the White House needs to adapt to the times. It can move in a sordid direction (affairs, Islamic radicals, cocaine, and transgender debauchery) or it can keep up with the demands of a powerful nation that’s on the move. Thankfully, Trump has chosen that second option.”

Memorable memes.

CORRECTION: "As we are all far too few are aware, the East Wing was constructed during World War II to accommodate the surge of office workers flooding the government during the war after Constitutional barriers that originally constrained Congress were annihilated by The Supreme Court with it's disastrous rulings in the 1939 Helvering case, and the Wickard case in 1942. Additionally, it may have been added to obscure the fact that the White House was upgrading its underground military headquarters and adding a bomb shelter."

The vaporization by The Court of those Constitutional limits permitted an explosion of the Federal Power that the Public entirely failed to recognize because it was entirely masked by the concurrent explosion in Federal activity related to the War. Had this not been the case, Main Street America may well have been more aware of how the exponential growth in Washington DC was impacting practical aspects of their daily lives. Tucked in, as it all was, amid rationing, Victory Gardens, and collecting scrap metals for the war effort, the simultaneous invasion of the Home Front by domestic bureaucrats and their minion busybodies went tragically unnoticed.

I would like to see a meme of the construction. It would have President Trump walking around supervising with a crown on watching Democrats in sombreros working on it.

Inasmuch as the renovation is far MORE than just creation of a Ballroom (which is nice)-— that is to say, serious re-building and modernizing the Presidential Emergency Operations Center the PEOC acronym paid for by US War Dept and other funds aside from the private 250 million (the WWII era lower floors under the East Wing, built there by..the dems sacred Hero the gimp F.D.R.)

They never biotched about FDR and his bunker or his indoor swimming pool, which Nixon filled in (they never forgave him for that, and outing FDRs Commie of the Cabinet, Alger Hiss) or.. especially not the basketball court for the sports incompetent hoops “playing at” obama (AKA Oba-Mau-Mao the First). No they have to hassle a President who combines beauty with NatSec necessity for him and future Presidents.

Soooo typical and so demon-RAT of them. Always on the prod.
