White House ballroom project has become costlier and larger than originally anticipated
Donald Trump encouraged those working on the construction of his new White House ballroom project to disregard traditional permitting, zoning, and code requirements, according to a new report.
Since announcing the project in July, Trump’s ballroom has become larger, costlier and more destructive than initially thought – raising concerns about whether the president is following historical rules when it comes to a White House addition.
The ballroom’s capacity, initially thought to be 650, has been raised to 900. Its cost has nearly doubled from $200 million to $350 million. Its construction, which Trump initially said would not interfere with the integrity of the current White House, has led to the destruction of the East Wing.
Yes! Disregard the code! Don’t even think about the building code!
And don’t worry, the ballroom certainly won’t fall down with you inside it, piggy!
I have never been horny before in my life, on account of being asexual, but the thought of this ballroom collapsing under shitty building practices while housing the top thousand richest bastards in society, is certainly making me feel something hormonal.
Never in your life? I always assumed asexual meant very rarely horny, not literally never. Is that common?
Forty years old, still a virgin. Sex-repulsed. Doesn’t cause a problem in my life. Immune to most advertising. Watching people make the same stupid mistakes about birth control time and time again, and never understanding why. My line ends with me and that’s fine.
Edit: why did people downvote my answer, and not the question asked of me? Does that mean I shouldn’t have answered, or that I should have answered in a sex-positive way, or do they straight-up think ace people aren’t real?
The people who downvoted are stupid, thanks for sharing :)
What about sexual pleasure like from touch and orgasm?
being sex-repulsed doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t enjoy self-pleasure. there’s not one “kind” of asexuality, there’s a spectrum
But also yeah, I can’t have self-pleasure. Doesn’t work. Grosses me out besides. People act like sexual pleasure is the most important thing ever. I’m doing just fine without it. I’m not a problem to be fixed.
You already know what the answer is.
And besides, I’m intersex. Loads of people take for granted that their genitals formed well-enough.
I’m not invested in sex or discussions about it. It actually skeeves me out.
We should be so lucky.
It’ll probably collapse on a kindergarten tour group while piggy is in Europe meeting with Putin.
Along those same lines, they should have a Wizard of Oz ball using the original snow recipe from the movie.
Asbestos?
Yeah, and as an aside, that’s another Russian product for which he’s advocated.
Look on the bright side; hopefully it’ll catch on fire due to an electric short, or Canada, or something, during one of Trump’s shindigs and him and nine hundred of his “friends” will get trapped inside due to overcrowding and insufficient emergency exits and will burn to death in abject agony.
🤌 GORLAMI
I am confused, what ballroom is this talking about? Do you mean the Epstein ball room? That makes sense…
Yes, the Trump-Epstein Friendship Ballroom
With extra gold trimmed glory holes in the men’s toilet.
Might even have something to do with bubbas balls
I’d be surprised if he didn’t
This feels like a Nero burning Rome moment.
Funny thing is, even Nero wasn’t this blatantly corrupt and evil. Most of the myth of the ‘fiddling while Rome burned’ story came as propaganda from his enemies (long after he was dead too). What we’re seeing here is undeniable proof that Trump is the biggest POS in America
A DC burner instead of a CD burner.
You win.

Tip:
In markdown, add two spaces at the end of a line for a linebreak.
As is, your art is spread to 2 or 3 columns on a wide screen.You da man.
Show me all your ways!
EDIT: I’m on mobile. What happens if you copy/paste it in your format? Will it look good for you and broken for me?
Simply brilliant
Took me a second.
Bravo, sir.
Wouldn’t it be a shame if the Epstein Ballroom collapsed in on Donald?
That’s not going to happen because it’s not going to be built. The next president is going to inherit a demolition site and the Republicans are going to complain that the Democrats are denigrating the office of the president by failing to deal with the construction site.
He’ll blame THAT on Obama.
If the ceiling don’t land on him, which would be a horrifically ironic way to go
I’d say 60-40 Biden or Obama.
Ignoring the law just because you were told to is no excuse in court.
Code requirements? Dude those are not just useless regulations. Those are for your safety and the soundness of the building. Only a complete moron signs off on a build that ignores building codes. But here we are.
I expect they’ll probably follow code anyway? Because you know as soon as dipshit is out of there, they’re going to have to inspect that thing for safety reasons. And the contractor probably doesn’t want the reputation of building absolute crap.
On the other hand, if he’s as good as picking construction contractors as he is at picking lawyers or cabinet positions, well…
I’m sure it will be built by a contracting company incorporated just for this purpose. And after this, it will be dissolved. They’ll have no reputation to defend.
Four Seasons Total Landscaping is about to land another big job
Seriously. i get ignoring zoning and permitting because fuck everyone else, but skipping CODE requirements just means your building fucking sucks.
Now we know how his buildings are made. It’s probably best not to live in, or even next to one.
Shhhhhhh! Let him play in his castle. It keeps him quiet.
All he’s doing is giving a future president an excuse to tear it down. Plus, visiting politicians and influential businesspeople usually don’t like to hang out in unsafe buildings.
Can’t say as much about submarines, though.
That’s never getting old.
White trash doing white trash shit
Everything he’s doing is probably going to have to be torn down and rebuilt.
Hey, Canada, that’s kind of your thing isn’t it? Seriously, though, please just burn the while fucking White House to the ground! (again) Cause we’re never gonna be able to get Diaper Donnie’s stench out, anyway…
Uh, it looks like you guys are well on your way to burning it down without our help.
probablycertainlyFTFY.
Even if by some miracle it isn’t an unsafe, condemned piece of shit, it’s still a blight and a travesty of historical proportions that will need to be corrected by restoring it to the previous design.
Just make sure those same fuckin billionaires who donated for this pony up the money for it’s restoration, too.
That seems like a feature not a bug. I don’thave an issue with tearing literally everything down that’s tied to him.
I think we Canadians would be happy to help with any extensive remodeling your White House requires.
Maybe you can paint it orange this time.
yeah come give it the ol 1812 special please
I’ll start a gofundme!
Please let this end the way I hope it will……
With an electrical fire in a ballroom full of 900 of Trump’s enablers and the doors fail to open due to corner cutting?
One major part of fire code in most areas I’ve ever worked in is that the door access control system must be tied into the fire alarm so an alarm event will kill power to any doors with maglocks. Every door also needs its own exit button to again directly cut power if the automatic motion detector fails to let anyone out. Let’s hope those were the things missed.
Were megacorp CEOs/biggest owners invited too?
Haha, I hope it collapses on him.
What a surprise? Trump is cheating again! Who woulda thunk it, other than EVERYBODY?
And in this case, cheating is even stupider. He’s not a normal developer in this case, he’s not paying for this, he doesn’t have to wait for anything, he can expedite anything he wants. There is no reason to not do this by the book, but Trump is one of those guys (I’ve known several) who when offered a choice between the honest way, and the dishonest way, they will take the dishonest way every time, because they think that somehow it will get them something extra, even if it doesn’t. It’s just their nature to cheat at everything.
But the Dems assure us that the 2024 election was totally “fair & square,” and Donald Trump didn’t cheat in the only election that would literally keep him from a life sentence in prison. Sure, he’s cheated on literally EVERYTHING ELSE IN HIS LIFE, just for fun, but he didn’t cheat to keep himself out of prison. Makes sense.
No wonder Democrats lose every election.
