Former President Donald Trump has revealed his intention to personally finance and construct an opulent ballroom at the White House, with the goal of enhancing its prestige to align with other prominent global power centers. Trump announced this initiative on Truth Social, indicating that prior presidents had envisioned such an enhancement but lacked the necessary experience to bring it to fruition. Drawing on his own proficiency in building lavish ballrooms, such as those at Mar-a-Lago, Trump assured that the project would be executed swiftly, incur no costs to taxpayers, and embody the grandeur of the White House. He initially proposed this concept during President Biden’s administration and earlier under President Obama, but reported receiving no feedback. Now, as he embarks on his second term, Trump plans to move forward with the construction personally, describing it as a “fun” endeavor amidst wider global issues.
