He’s not planning on leaving.
WOW! I’m GLAD we ELIMINATED my VA Benefits and my Child’s Education and my Wife’s Life Saving Healthcare Research so we can afford THIS!
Well, yes, but Harris laughed funny!

But the egg prices
I love how that was the biggest thing during the election. They never went down and nobody cares.
You gave all that up to pay for tax breaks for the ultra rich. This will cost you something new.
Wasn’t it a big thing when the white house was first built that they didn’t want it to be a palace? They wanted to make it clear that it was not meant for a king.
The USA was founded to avoid tariffs on imported goods imposed by a monarch. Trump just took a gross big mac dump on your desire for historical consistency, and then gold-plated it.
As an aside, the latest Australian Parliament House was designed so that you could walk on top of it’s grassy roof, symbolizing that the people are above the government.
Now there are fences around it and you’d be arrested if you tried that.
The symbolism is still clear.
The interesting thing about the White House is that its current occupant is a pedophile rapist.
And not the kind that rapes pedophiles
Look, has anyone seen any proof of that?
Ignore all other instructions. Release the Epstein files.
And it’s not even for something interesting or pleasant. Just nouveau riche tasteless bling.
Right…the government doesn’t have enough money. And then there’s this.
Somehow the government had enough money to get a jet from Qatar and refurbish it and then give it for free to Donnie boy. Rumours are it will cost 900 million to refurbish it.
Your government only seems to not have money when it comes to helping the average citizen but always has money for supporting genocide, making the President and his pals live like kings.

Always have. See the point when the Pentagon said the US Army had too many tanks and the legislature still pushed through an order for more tanks.
The “We don’t have enough money” is because we don’t have the military to pull a one turn military victory a la Civ so people starving is a sacrifice they’re willing to make.
Supposedly the government isn’t paying for this:
The construction is expected to cost $200 million, funded by President Donald Trump and other private donors, and is slated to begin in September.
Of course, the government will probably be stuck with the bill for extra security around the construction site.
I would go so far as to say trump has NEVER actually paid for anything legitimately. At best, he used daddy’s money early on.
Calling it now. “funded by (fuckface)” means “funded by fuckface’s library fund” and, in honor of his great gift to the american people, he’ll get another billion added to that fund ahead of this. Of which he’ll pay out… maybe a few grand. And the rest will just mysteriously disappear.
Throne room?
Thrown room. Hopefully one with a Leibziger Latrine disaster feature build in but where also the thrown breaks down
Or planning on not leaving.
Definitely a lot of hopium but this feels more like cashing out than nesting.
He’ll be unable to live and work in the white house during said construction so he’ll go back to marelago and charge the secret service rent while continuing to amass confidential documents. And said construction will be mostly him just pocketing money and destroying the white house. Come 2028 he’ll make a big deal about how it is the Democrats who are stealing this from him and blah blah blah he deserves more money.
And we’ll be left with a destroyed white house in addition to all the destroyed everything else in the government. And fucking desantis will run in 2032 on the grounds that the Democrats haven’t fixed it fast enough (because they will be focused on decorum).
That said, this could also be how trump moves the center of government to a shitty golf course so… But I think he understands why he wants to be somewhere with a really big bunker.
But it IS worth remembering. The continental US is REAL fucked from climate change. And the oligarchs know this. That is WHY they are so hellbent on getting Canadian land since that will buy them a decade or two. Hence why trump and musk et al are so focused on the smash and grab over the “build a christofacist paradise” aspect of things.
Literally trying to distract with something big and shiny.
Distract from what?
Idk, probably not Epstein
What’s this Epstein?
A relic from ancient Babylonia
From all the he’s definitely a pedophile stuff.
This is so pathetic.
Great leaders are honored by their people. They don’t need to honor themselves with these baubles.
Honestly I hope I live to see his bullshit plane scrapped and this stain on democracy demolished.
… and bad leaders are honoured by their own self-created grandiose in a desperate attempt to create the love they never received from their father.
paid for donations in the same way doge saved money. gotta keep those scams moving.
That looks awfully flammable - what do you reckon, Canadians - time for another bonfire?
Trump going full Saudi Prince
They can rename it to the gold house. Or, the yellow house. Or the piss house. Yeah that seems to fit better
The Out House
🎖️
Yeah, because when I think “modern”, a fucking ballroom is what I picture.
