    1. Since the White House is an important historical/landmark building, that really shouldn’t have been allowed. 

    2. That can’t be right.

      Donald said there would be minimal damage and we wouldn’t see anything 🤷🏻‍♂️🤯

      /s

    3. imagine if joe biden suddenly tore down 1/3 of the white house. what about obama? bush? clinton? reagan?

      everything was demolished with no permitting or approval during a federal government shutdown.

      the white house was built with *checks notes* American taxpayer dollars.

      the white house was paid for, and therefore belongs to, the American people. it does NOT belong to donald trump OR any other previous president.

      why is he allowed to demolish a portion of this historic building that is over 100 years old without any oversight?

      he isn’t- there just isn’t anyone to hold the president accountable right now.

      if the idea of confederate statues being suddenly demolished upsets you, and this FEDERALLY ILLEGAL demolition of a historic building does not, please ask yourself: why?

      the problem is not where the money for this renovation is coming from. the problem is that he tore down part of this historic and beautiful building so suddenly when it simply was not his to demolish. it is so, so sad.

      My question is how long it will take the next administration to un-fuck up what has been done? Not only to the White House, but to the whole country?!?!

    5. “it won’t interfere with the current structure” 🤡🤡🤡

      “Also the $300 million bunker, sorry ballroom, is being privately funded… Also also I’m gonna direct the DOJ to pay me $230 million of your taxpayer dollars… Also also also probably don’t plan on future elections…. K baiiiii”

      This is a fucking travesty and governments have been overthrown by their people for less provocation.

    6. It’s only been what? A few weeks? since people were talking about that video of people throwing trash bags from the second floor of the white house – something that shouldn’t have been possible really. And here we are, a short bit later, and we’re not even really surprised he’s tearing the structure itself to bits.

      This does raise a few questions. 

      Who is the authority having jurisdiction over the White House and other historic buildings in Washington DC?  

      Who approves the plans and issues the building permit?

      Did Trump follow this process?

      If not, who is going to issue fines?

    8. Over on r/conservative they’re talking about how it’s so funny that the libs are triggered over this 😐

    9. Where the hell are all the historic preservationists?! Or anyone else who takes care of the White House?! He doesn’t own the house, how could he be able to do this??!!

      Coming to Truth Social soon: An advertisement to buy a genuine White House brick from your favorite President.

      It was probably because it was where Obama and Biden were filmed jogging the length of the walkway. And he can barely walk it?

      So the bunker is below the east wing, are you really sure he’s going to build a ballroom? Seems like a good place to build a fortress or something in case anyone asks him to leave.

    13. I wonder if there is anything Trump could do where Americans would say, “no, that’s too far.” At this point it doesn’t seem like there is any line for him. That’s really scary.

      On behalf of the American people, a big thank you to our cowardly, boot licking, self-serving Congresspeople, House Representatives, with special thanks to the Supreme Court for handing our country over to a narcissistic madman on a gilded platter. And have no fear, your complicity WILL be remembered.

      Genuinely surprised he didn’t tear down the entire thing to build one of his tacky hotels

      Listen I know that this sucks and all, but I’m more concerned with stuff like the Epstien files, ice agents attacking and arresting innocent civilians, killing innocent Venezuelans and possibly going to war with their country, and other stuff like that

    17. And you did nothing. Let that orange felon destroy a national treasure. Where are the balls in this country?

    18. All that history. Gone. The entire building is a protected site. It’s the peoples’ house, he’s only a renter. Yet here we are.

      In addition to ‘taco’ ‘Captain Graft’, ‘tiny hands’, ‘mushroom p3nis’ and others I think we should add one to his nickname list:

      donald ‘wrecking ball’ trump
