The left double-dribbles over Trump’s ballroom…

Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 10/24/2025 2:29:27 PM

Only in today’s America could building a ballroom spark a national meltdown. President Trump is redoing part of the East Wing to create a stunning new ballroom, something timeless, elegant, and built to host history for generations to come. And the left are absolutely losing their marbles. It’s called “Ballroom Derangement Syndrome.” The outrage machine has gone into overdrive, hurling every insult imaginable, from “dictator” to “narcissist,” all because Trump dares to build something beautiful. Hilariously, these are the same Dems who will be twirling around the ballroom for years to come.

Comments:

Now, who comes to mind when we see "double dribble"? I don't see him being much of a dancer.

FTA: Apple, Amazon, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Google, Coinbase, Comcast and Meta are just some of the major companies who have made donations to build President Donald Trump’s proposed 90,000-square-foot ballroom, according to the White House. Trump has repeatedly said that work on the ballroom is privately funded by himself and donors and will cost nothing to taxpayers. *********** Hakeem the Dem Jester has threatened to have every edonor investigated for using donations to gain favor from PDJT. Considering the direct purchase of access sold by Menendez and Biden, to name only a very few, this shows more of Hackem's spite and ignorance.n You wanna open that Pandora's box, Hacker?

It will be beautiful, I am certain. Leftists hate anything and everything that Trump does. If he rescued a drowning child from a swimming pool they would complain.

We are probably the only country in the developed world that has to have state dinners under a tent. Democrats have no real issues but have to scream like banshees when someone else comes up with a good idea.

Trump has the Dems on the ropes wrt the shutdown. This is just their feeble attempt to lash out at him and find an issue they can run with. They look more and more pathetic each day.

All the other presidents used taxpayer money to pay for their rebuilds and additions. I read somewhere that disgusting obama's basketball court (for his selfish behind) at OUR house cost taxpayers over $300 million. Where was the outrage that he built a bb court alone? Then the cost? How many games do you think he or biden played on that court?

Sorry, I read the article after commenting; I heard about the $300 million cost yesterday. It costs US $400 million for non-basketball-playing obama. That court was built to perpetrate a lie that he was a baller, when we have him on tape not able to make shots. They all thought it was cute, not fake and phony, just like him.

Ubama wanted to prove to the world that he was a 'baller like Lebron, and so he spent $400M of taxpayer money building a basketball court at 1600 PA. Most of us saw a filmed demonstration of his athletic abilities, as he missed lay up after lay up after lay up[, just like WNBA "star" Angel Reese. In addition, anyone who's ever seen his low power golf swing knows that he hasn't any athletic ability whatsoever. He's not so strong in the mind, either. At bottom, he's a useless community organizer who achieved the Peter Principle. There's not one thing is good about him, a true quisling and communist. He should return to Kenya. That's where his heart is.

Four years ago, a group of race-grifter activists in New York City tried to sue their way into government-enforced racial quotas and race-centric curricula. But New York state’s highest court just decided they are not allowed to use the judicial system to mandate the indoctrination of children. According to Defending Education (DE), which intervened in the case in 2021, far-left group IntegrateNYC’s attempt to abuse courts to create racial quotas for students and blame the racial make-up of school staff and a “white and Eurocentric curriculum” for poor education outcomes among the city’s black and Latino populations was put to an end Friday when the New York Court of Appeals dismissed

11 Singhs were arrested in San Bernardino County, California, accused of operating a sophisticated freight theft and trucking fraud ring that diverted high-value shipments across state lines, costing companies millions. The police branded the criminal ring as the “Singh Organization,” raising questions about whether the repeated appearance of the surname in media reports involving massive narcotics busts, immigration violations, and fatal trucking accidents points to a broader pattern. Could U.S. efforts to combat ethnic-religious gangs like the “Singh Organization” be undermined by Canada?While the U.S. secures prosecutions, deports illegal drivers, and imprisons narcotics traffickers, Canada routinely grants bail

NBC “Propaganda Press” News has an exclusive, and it sent a press release about it to other press so all press can report that a handful of Democrat senators have written a letter. Sure, senators write strongly worded letters all the time — and often they result in no action — but NBC is marketing this letter as a big deal, doing its part to spread Democrat propaganda. The senators sent the letter — “first provided to NBC News,” according to the press release — to Education Secretary Linda McMahon, “demanding that she step in and ask the Department of Homeland Security to curb its operations around schools.”

Having provided deliberate advice and counsel quietly on these matters, it is important to continue watching the developments as they unfold. There are trillions at stake. President Trump’s global trade and economic reset is well underway. It is not an overstatement to say the western world economic structures within trade, banking and finance are in opposition to his efforts. Alas, as we have outlined extensively, part of the larger phase of this reset will come in the likely dissolution of the U.S. Mexico, Canada trade agreement (USMCA).

Conservatives and Trump supporters were quick to remind former first lady Hillary Clinton about her 2021 furniture controversy with former President Bill Clinton as she attempted to lambaste President Donald Trump for constructing a ballroom at the White House. "At least he didn’t steal the silverware," Texas Sen. Ted Cruz posted to X Tuesday lambasting Clinton. Clinton's X post quickly set off condemnation from conservatives reflecting on the 2001 furniture controversy, when the Clintons took an estimated $28,000 in White House furnishings provided by donors and paid $86,000 to the federal government for other gifts they received.
