@cnn: President Donald Trump has proceeded with enormous latitude as he constructs his massive new ballroom, bypassing concerns raised by preservationists and so far stopping short of seeking approval from the commission overseeing construction on federal buildings to tear down the entirety of the White House East Wing. CNN's Kevin Liptak looks at how President Trump's controversial plans compare to the long history of White House renovations.

This year, Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill gave: Google an $18 billion tax break. Amazon a $16 billion tax break. Microsoft a $12 billion tax break. Facebook an $11 billion tax break. Now, they’re writing checks to Trump for his $300 million ballroom. Gee, I wonder why?

Poor reporting to focus on what other Presidents have done. Focus should be on the fact that they did it legally and trump isn’t.

And the demand he’s made to the Justice Department for $230 million… will that be at no cost 💲 to the people?

The White House belongs to the people. NOT TRUMP no matter who pays for it! And could he possibly be more tone deaf

Maybe once a year he would have 1000 people in that atrocity. Most of the time he’s gonna have 200 to 250 people in a 1000 person ballroom. How many times a year is that room gonna get used and who is looking into the cost which is now gone up $100 million I’m telling you as a professional builder you could build that entire thing with the finest finishes for 75 million.
