Trump can’t focus long enough, even on his $400 million passion project
In October, Donald Trump traumatized all true patriots by tearing down the East Wing of the White House. The move, he claims, will clear the way for a ballroom for holding large events that are typically held in tents on the South Lawn. A debate immediately arose online over whether or not the next Democratic president should tear down the ballroom or keep it, albeit with the necessary extensive renovations to remove all the tackiness Trump brings to any project.
Two months later, it increasingly seems that such discussion was a wasted effort, as the chance this ballroom will actually be built is rapidly disappearing. Perhaps it could have if Trump had delegated the management of the project to someone competent, but that’s not what he did. Instead, the famously lazy and disorganized president decided to blow off his actual governance duties in favor of micromanaging a construction project he is incapable of handling. Finishing the ballroom in the next three years would be difficult for anyone, but it’s quickly becoming clear it will be nearly impossible for the famed real estate tycoon to pull it off.
The whole thing is a too-perfect symbol of Trump’s second administration: They are very good at breaking things, but they don’t know how to create anything of value.
Because I don’t clutch pearls over the destruction a piece of a building that was built by slaves and occupied by imperialists and pedophiles, that makes me a “pedophile enabler?”
You’re the type of leftist everybody hates, clutch your Pearls as hard as you can, I don’t even think you’re real I think you’re Russian, being paid to troll and manufacture dissent online
You’re right. How could it be otherwise? Everyone loves America. A real leftist would watch a child talking about how they’ve come to fear sunny days because that’s when the American drones fly, and would belt out, “I’M PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, WHERE AT LEAST I KNOW I’M FREE!” It’s literally inconceivable that any actual American would look at all the needless deaths caused by everyone who’s sat in that building since, well ever, and would experience anything but trauma at seeing part of it torn down.
It’s genuinely sickening to me that any of you liberals, clapping like seals when bombs are dropped on innocents because the news says it’s ok, thinking of yourselves as “true patriots,” and shunning any and all alternate perspectives, abjectly refusing to read any sort of theory - that any of you actually think that you’re some kind of “leftists.”
