The Trump administration is arguing in court that halting a $400m White House ballroom and bunker overhaul would endanger national security, setting up a sharp clash with preservationists and a federal judge.
If that were the case, they wouldn’t have just gone ahead and started bulldozing willy nilly. They could have at least said it was for security reinforcements on the White House “and we may as well build a ballroom at the same time.”
I’m sure it was the opposite. Trump wanted a ballroom, and they figured while the White House is half blown up, they may as well build a bunker.
