A Closer Look Back: Trump’s Ballroom Obsession

Try peace
Good at goofing off ,
Go ahead Trump, and build your ballroom — on your dime. Go to your oligarchs and let them fund it. 10:24
That idiot HHH! What, you need more money? Nod at dump when he says he’s good at ballrooms. Good boy
Gordy, Gordy 🤮🤮
Grant sounded more like Lee.
The white house belongs to the people. He shouldn't be able to do anything to it without the publics approval 🤦♂️ WE PAY FOR IT !
Cost of living is up, because of his war in Iran! And he has money to build a ballroom?! This is so unnecessary and an insult to the struggling people of this country!
I am going to miss Seth's Lindsay Graham voice. You could have a play ghost of Lindsay and talk to it?
His ballroom is his hiding place for Fort Knox gold. Underneathe will be Trump's living space when he refuses to leave office at the end of his term. No, we don't want him to finish any of it. We want him gone from the White House!
He plans to empty Fort Knox for his projects. He will use catering trucks to smuggle it out to line his swimming pool at the Florida Orange House.
TABLE: "Wood board with stick legs." CLASSIC! 🤣

He elected this time for revenge, that's all he cares about. He just wants to destroy the USA.
We are going to miss all the Lindsay Graham "Mee-maw" references (unless of course his sister wins his seat).
This seems like a coverup for a safe room and bunker (under the ballroom), to prepare for the public response when they institute martial law. Like all of his private sector projects in the past, over budget, delayed, possibly not paying the contractors, generally a massive grift and he pockets the majority of the proceeds
He's turned the white house gaudy 🙄🙄🙄🙄
I guess the justice system doesn't mind trump bulldozing the 1st lady's offices..
This was great 😆 While Seth is away, please do more of these Closer Look greatest hits compilations. Thank you!
