I think the “People” of this Country should sue him for destroying OUR house. 😡😡😡😡😡

Danita Hamilton's avatar

Exactly Sue the hell out of his ass. I’m ready let’s go Americans because this SOB has to be stopped now.

Class action…..I’m in!!!!

Renee's avatar

Meidas Touch gave all the things one needs to do the class action. We the people need to stand up! If I knew more about the law I would do the class action.

Lori Lott's avatar

Me too!! if someone starts a class action suit though, I will definitely participate!!

MollyWhitebear's avatar

A Class Action suit will take years. Something needs to be done NOW!

WillHotkiss's avatar

Y’all want to do something? Black Friday & Cyber Monday are coming up🤔 Strike the shit out of this billionaire holiday ✊ ALL they care about is money. So let’s take it away 💸

Amanda's avatar

We don't need billionaires. They need us!

HOW DARE HE DEMOLISH OUR

WHITE HOUSE?

Lori Vollandt's avatar

I hope the next president rips it down the first day.

S. A. Linden's avatar

That plan destroys the balance of the original planners' intentions. Trump has absolutely zero taste and will decorate it in Liberace Moderne.

It has GOT to come down post-Trump & MAGA, just like the hideous gilt in the White House itself. They should make him pay for the demolition.

I had originally thought that maybe it could be repurposed as something else more in line with democracy? But the size dwarfs the White House itself, just like Donald dwarfs his peers with his fat ass.

If Democrats EVER learn how to message, they should point out that Trump's horrifically unsuitable ballroom makes the historic White House look puny. Surely that reveal should win some MAGA converts?

WillHotkiss's avatar

I just want to point out, we've had a ballroom for two centuries. It's called the East Room, and it's 80' x 37' with a 22-foot ceiling.

This entire demolition was for nothing. Except to feed the ego of a narcissist. The original design of the white house was to reflect balance. Now it will be out of balance…. Fitting for the times.

S. A. Linden's avatar

I heard this morning that the corridor/connector that Trump designed has an upper traffic passage that is walled in glass, so that his adoring public may watch as Donald transits fr. White House to Ballroom, elevated above the common folk's passage. Kind of like those bridges with upper and lower decks. Good god, the man is insane. We should start calling him Napoleon.

Nicol's avatar

The Dems will NEVER learn how to message. Its pathetic. Im ashamed of the whole party

Deb Fyfe's avatar

Remember magats do not believe common sense, honesty, facts.

Karyn Payton's avatar

Next president? You’re still in denial. 😕

Sandy's avatar

Don’t say that. It only puts ideas into his head….there WILL be a next president or a revolution.

Nicol's avatar

Nobody needs to give him any ideas.He's already said we're never gonna need the vote again.He has no intention of leaving

Kathy Fielding's avatar

He and his allies will never allow another vote!

Nicole Wade's avatar

What next President? Oh, you think it's gonna be another election? Awww....aren't you sweet.

D’Luise - PNW Strong's avatar

I just want to scream!!! Why hasn’t he been removed from office yet???!!! The White House is NOT Trump’s house!!! IT’S OUR HOUSE!!!. IT’S THE “WE THE PEOPLE” HOUSE!!!

Janet's avatar

I’m right there with you! I’m physically repulsed every time I hear him

or see him.

Diana's avatar

Screaming with you my friend!!!!!!!

Danita Hamilton's avatar

I know me too 💯💯💯

KAY's avatar

ONE REASON: REPUBLICANS.

D’Luise - PNW Strong's avatar

I agree but it’s also become apparent only a small handful of Democrats are pushing back hard every chance they get. Their colleagues need to do the same or step aside for stronger democrat replacements in the house and senate. James Talarico, TX, is running for the senate and though I’m not one of his constituents, I’m backing him up. He’s a solid, grounded and extremely wise younger gentleman. He’s only accepting grassroots financial campaign support. No big money allowed.

Also, some judges/justices in high places need to re-read the oath they took and swore to uphold our constitution.

MollyWhitebear's avatar

Screaming with you from WA State! :(

D’Luise - PNW Strong's avatar

Molly, I’m from the REAL WA too!! Washington State.

MollyWhitebear's avatar

SO AWESOME! Hello Neighbor! Camano Island here!

Leah Baum's avatar

Screaming with you in Oregon.

S. A. Linden's avatar

Civil suit is not covered under his immunity, is it? Nice idea if workable. We want damages!

JMassa's avatar

Stop paying Federal taxes!! Starting January, Im done! I'll take my chances. Trump is using tax $ as his personal bank! We are getting NOTHING for all the taxes we pay!

Nicol's avatar

So I was hoping to speak with somebody who knew what the repercussions of this were because if we all start putting exempt on our w4s, can they come back at us, ... or what happens??

JMassa's avatar

I, too, will be chatting with someone about the repercussions of this. I will pay the state but not the feds. I feel that if millions of us withhold our money, they will have a hard time addressing it. Of course, I could be wrong. But speaking with an expert in the field is a must.

Lori Lott's avatar

For those who also have IG, I just saw this post and they’re talking about class action as well!!

Jumajaju11's avatar

I think it's time we go in and drag his ass out, along with Stephen Miller, Mike Johnson, Pam Bondi, Peter Theil, Karolying Leavitt and ALL others who have been kissing his soiled diapers!!!

S. A. Linden's avatar

I don't understand why John Roberts hasn't been impeached yet for his immunity ruling.

Fox.or.Ox's avatar

Same reason Trump hasn't been impeached. Too many republicans in Congress and Supreme Court. There is a need to vote for more democrats.

MommaMich's avatar

I don’t understand how it hasn’t been done yet😡

Nicol's avatar

That you're correct.There's nothing that can be done at this point. They own everything

Nicol's avatar

That's about what it's gonna take. Physical removal and you know that that won't be bloodless

Danita Hamilton's avatar

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Ruby Brown's avatar

Every last one of them!

GingerLee's avatar

Instead he wants $230k for his legal expenses interesting isn't that the cost of the disgusting ballroom?hmmm did his backers bail? Or better yet he had no backers... no way would the stain pay out for the ballroom...

Andrea's avatar

The legal expenses that one of his PAC’s paid for - not him! And if this happens, not a penny will be going to charity, we all know that. He’s pushing everything as far as he can to see if there is a red line - so far, no one has trod to stop him. The East Wing is a brazen act of defiance and says, to me at least, that he doesn’t intend to go anywhere in 2028! Like a dog he’s marked his territory!

Dee Joy's avatar

The only way he's leaving the WH is in a body bag

JoAnn Duffy's avatar

Foreign countries are probably the backers of the ballroom.

JoAnn Duffy's avatar

That would surprise no one.

uRNangel423's avatar

Could be, but what are they getting in return??? Like the Qatari Air Base to be built in Utah?

JoAnn Duffy's avatar

They’re getting so much, it’s hard to keep track.

Tara Batin's avatar

Seems to me THIS is where he is getting his money to pay for the renovations. Seems a little to sus for me.

EZB-Mustang's avatar

How? I'm in but I don't know anything about how to do that.

MDL's avatar

People let off steam with their fantasies of arresting Trump and his crime syndicate and walking them out of the White House while the nation watches it on TV. It's getting really old and tired seeing the same comments over and over.

JoAnn Duffy's avatar

Well, it’s either blow off some steam or stay heavily medicated to stay sane.

KPB's avatar

Okay. I hear you.

Sandy R's avatar

I can't wait to watch that. It can't happen soon enough.

MDL's avatar

Unfortunately, it isn't likely to happen.

Mike Oszko's avatar

Maybe not in our lifetime. Maybe not in this world. But he WILL get his comeuppance. Of that, I’m certain.

Rule Jan's avatar

Unfortunately “WE” can’t. But the legislature & Judicial can take action.

Lisa Meyer's avatar

BUT THEY WON'T. THEY NEED TO STAND UP TO TJIS TYRANT. PSALM 109:8

chance dees's avatar

They can but have made it clear they won't. So what now

Elizabeth's avatar

These things take time to develop, esp.when trump has everything in constant flux.

Stefany Stratton's avatar

Best idea!! It wasn’t approved by us & it is the “people’s house” also can we get him evicted & banned from even entering DC? I will settle for the WH if possible!

Ruby's avatar

Sue him for the $300 million he wants to spend on his vanity project... That's nearly a million dollars per American!!!

Danita Hamilton's avatar

Exactly we have to do something more because he is never leaving Washington and the White House even probably when he dies they would want to put his body in there.

Linda Smith's avatar

I’m no mathematical wizard, but I think that would amount to 1 million for 300 Americans

Avril Orloff's avatar

I think the American people should run these thugs out of the country!

D’Luise - PNW Strong's avatar

We need to sue him for many more things too!!

Snoozer's avatar

I’m sure SCOTUS would decide he is within his power to deface an American icon. Even if he isn’t, they’d find he is immune to any negative lower court finding.

Troy Kaplan's avatar

He should be arrested for destroying America’s house and historical house. Can all Americans press charges against him? It is our house

Kim's avatar

We need a general strike. This entire regime needs to be removed. He should have never been able to run. Hes a convicted felon, a predator, a conman, pedophile rapist. Disgusting how america has sunk so fckn low.

Leah Baum's avatar

General Strike is scheduled for Nov 25 thru Dec 2.

Peter Tey's avatar

Indeed

I am sure the resistance organizations are planning it. It should come soon

Tara Batin's avatar

We should as a COUNTRY...then where will his Billionaires be? They all make money off of us. A country-wide strike, a NATIONWIDE strike. If only that COULD happen then maybe the Billionaires will think twice. But even trying to generate a strike against Target was only half way done, people still shopped there. It needs to be EVERYONE who strikes, no money moving anywhere. We have to hit them where they hurt most which is money.

chance dees's avatar

This is the one thing that might work.

Sharon Brown's avatar

Yes whatever happened to checks and balances? Someone should be held responsible for allowing this destruction!

Kim's avatar

Should be the voters who keep fckn voting these criminal, racist pigs in.

chance dees's avatar

When they checked they decided not to balance.

Jackie Taylor Miller's avatar

⚡️🏆⚡️

Best comment I’ve read all day !!

👏👏👏

Francine Koski's avatar

BIG YES‼️‼️😡

Joan-Avicii’s Mom's avatar

From what I’ve see of his dancing, which almost blinded me, could be done on a school auditorium stage. I know the kids would upstage him but he could ban children for the night. He doesn’t have the right to demolish east wing of the White House!

Therese Lynch's avatar

Is anyone surprised that Trump lied yet again? Nothing that ever comes out of his mouth is the truth!

Lulu's avatar

Do people who renovate intend to leave the place where they live? 🤔

Cheryl Jones-Head's avatar

Exactly. He has no intention of leaving. There will be another coup attempt in 2028. Dems better get their shid in order.

Shelly G's avatar

Exactly! And the inside looks to be putrid gold color theme. That thing looks hideous and not representative of the “people’s house”!

Fox.or.Ox's avatar

Yes exactly and Cheap, Tawdry.

Dayna Logan's avatar

Looks like a whore house.

S. A. Linden's avatar

There won't have to be a coup attempt. As Aaron pointed out, the MAGAs are busy working in the background (and have been for some time) to prevent free and fair elections.

That's the only thing that explains the Republicans' disgraceful opt-out of ANY kind of consequence for the illegal and vile things that Trump is perpetrating on the American people. Besides cowardice. But yeah . . . they really don't think that they're ever going to leave power.

Cheryl Jones-Head's avatar

We CAN and MUST stop him — arrest him, if necessary, if he refuses to leave!!!

JoAnn Duffy's avatar

Unfortunately, no they don’t. It’s not going to be pretty when we finally get rid of him.

Katvie's avatar

It’s the PEOPLE’S house!!!!

Bluestocking_Brigade's avatar

I am so tired 😪 I would like off this ride, please.

Kate Quigley's avatar

This is outrageous bullshit! We do not want or need a 90,000 sqft or larger "ballroom" to be added to the 55,000sqft White House. We the people were not consulted on this. This is not just remodeling or structural support. This is wholesale demolition. And of course none of the normal procedures have been followed in the historical preservation context. The number of people it can hold just keeps changing! First 650, then 900, I have seen up to 1k! And they keep glossing over that he said he wasn't going to touch it. The lying king just keeps on demolishing not only the foundational aspects of our democracy but now is demolishing We The People's House. It is NOT his, he is allowed to stay for his term. If a renter had tried this they would've never been able to rent anything again. And it may seem like I'm getting bent out of shape over a building that can and has had changes in the past. And I am but it feels like just the extra twist of the knife for good measure in the atrocities being committed by this administration.

Kevin's avatar

Figures. He does as he damn well pleases - and then lies about it.

Richard Waddell's avatar

All he CAN do is lie. He begins with a promise, then breaks it, since he

was never honest in making it - he is a LIAR in every possible way.

I won't go into his bad points.

DAWN DARNER's avatar

This is why the Democrats need to continue with the shut-down. All republicans now lie and we know beyond doubt they won’t come to the table and compromise about medical insurance issues after the budget issue is settled. Get it up front or no deal.

Chris Bystroff's avatar

And follow up with a general strike. Shutdown is not enough

S. A. Linden's avatar

Trump is like a dog, marking his territory.

MAGAisAMess's avatar

So much for just barely touching it. 🤦

Danita Hamilton's avatar

I hate his sorry ass it’s time for this lunatic to go ASAP. He is going to turn the White House into god knows what. If he did sex trafficking they would let him. This is getting more and more dangerous and sickening and disgusting. He would do anything for money anything.

Sal Teodoro's avatar

Yeah, I don’t think so about changing state elections to federal elections. FUCK HIM!!!! Why would he pay $300 million dollars to build the Epstein Ballroom if he was leaving in 3 years??? FUCK ICE!!!! And Trump and Kegsbreath are war criminals.

Vera Gilpin's avatar

I am standing on my chair, screaming YES YES YES F**KIN YES to this post.

Stacey's avatar

Taking over the 2026 elections? Not surprising as it was in project 2025.

JNP's avatar

Right?!? Isn’t this a lot more concerning than construction (not that I agree with that). Basically turning us into Russia. Forgot any more free and fair elections.

Keifer Allan's avatar

"It won't interfere with the current building," he stated during an executive order signing. He specifically promised, "It'll be near it but not touching it". White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt reinforced this message at the time, telling the Associated Press that "nothing will be torn down".

S. A. Linden's avatar

I just Wiki'd the White House to get the original plans. It looks like the model Trump is featuring in the photo also has constructed connectors to the East and West Wings. So he IS really altering the historic balance and connecting his own identity literally to the North Portico, the part we think of when we think of the White House. So how does he plan to pay for those connectors? And he IS altering the original because he'd have to break into the walls of the North Portico for those connectors, probably later on in his administration when he begs for private funding again.

Vera Gilpin's avatar

I would like 5 minutes in a dark room with both of them. How many pissed off people is it going to take to stop this MFer?????

Suki Herr's avatar

Trump should be charged with vandalism. Tearing down a national monument isn’t a presidential duty.

Trump personally needs to cover restoration cost.

Ball room construction halted.

Mamaax's avatar

WHY IS NO ONE STOPPING THIS MONSTER???

Fox.or.Ox's avatar

Democrats are outnumbered by republicans in Congress and republicans like what he is doing.

KingRayVet's avatar

It's not just on congress, ya know? That's only what soft Americans think. Go back in history and you'll see regular Americans used to know how to fight, too. Hell, I'm close to 70 and ready to go, but not by myself, dammit. I wouldn't go after him directly ... his regime must be first.

Nancy Melendrez's avatar

How is this happening and nobody is stopping him??? This is not HIS HOUSE????

Allison Nava's avatar

Yeah isn't there someone that can file for an injunction?

Fox.or.Ox's avatar

That would have to be the Dept. of justice which is in bed with Trump.

GramaJ Catherder's avatar

Republicans is why they're the majority and in on the grifting and destruction. We have only one chance to get them replaced and that I'd through the 2026 Midterms.

Fox.or.Ox's avatar

The Republican Congress is supposed to stop him as a check on the executive branch, but they are collaborating with him to dear down our democratic government. When the French Revolution occurred, it took the people themselves to storm the Bastille, guillotine the corrupt king and family. The American people are too timid to storm the Whitehouse and other government places.

Vera Gilpin's avatar

Where are the building inspectors.??? They could be hogtied in the basement for all we know. RIDICULOUS!!!
