What are some good uses the new ballroom can have after the Trump regime is over?

A tourist attraction, an unhallowed mausoleum to store Trump’s rotting corpse where people can walk by & spit on it or throw tomatoes at it or pour gasoline & matches on it or whatever.

Probably be a great place to broadcast the hangings from.
InfiniteHench@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Bold of you to assume they ever plan on leaving. He’s already handing out Trump 2028 hats and Bannon is just doing media interviews telling everyone he isn’t leaving.
You don’t tear down an entire wing from one of the most (symbolically) important buildings in the country just to throw parties for a couple years and then leave.

It’s just as likely he’ll get bored or run out of money and never finish

A free retirement villa for all the citizens he took healthcare & SNAP away from.

Turn it into a pigsty.
Use the pigs to feed the hungry.
Also, breed the pigs to look like Trump.
(I mean, if the Danes could get a pig breed to look like their flag, I’m sure Americans can get a pig breed to look like Trump. I mean, they’re already almost there!)

We could probably take the ballroom apart very carefully and use the materials to rebuild the east wing but, once started, we’d discover that trumpy cut corners like hell to line his pockets even more and the ballroom is just a pig shell of nothingness, but with golden lipstick.
Bazoogle@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Nobody is going to rebuild the east wing. Americans don’t want it torn down, but I’m sure most of us also don’t want our money spent rebuilding it

Remember that scene in Inglorious Basterds where they lock the cinema full of Nazi officers and set it on fire?
Cool scene, just thought I’d bring it up.

Demolished and have offices built.
relativestranger@feddit.nl 5 months ago
demolished is the only answer.
it won’t be built to code. shortcuts will be taken as everybody looks to score some free cash along the way.
no one will know what ‘extra’ items were planted during its reconstruction. even more significant if the security bunkers underneath the demolished east wing are also rebuilt.

Seems like it’ll have plenty of space for a guillotine.
P1nkman@lemmy.world 5 months ago
A guillotine is all that’s needed in there

Wouldn’t it make a good court room for a Nuremberg-style trial to hold the current Junta responsible for their crimes and treason? And remember: “I was just following orders” is not a valid excuse!

Good one.

Probably the same uses as the basketball court that Obama had built.
ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Dude’s not been president for almost 10 years and you’re still seething mad about him. He’s living in your head rent free, right next to Biden.

How did you get that from what I said?
swordgeek@lemmy.ca 5 months ago
I’m not convinced it’s going to survive the civil war that is required to get Trump and his cronies out of power.
starlinguk@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Especially because there’s a bunker underneath.
I’m willing to bet this is all about modernising the bunker, not the east wing.

It’s not tacky or gold-covered enough for Trump’s tastes. He needs that shitty dollar store-baroque style to feel at ease.

On a list of priorities, having a ballroom for state dinners and what not would not be high on mine. But as a big government whose reputation 47 hasn’t ruined entirely (yet), I can see the usefulness of a dedicated ballroom for these functions. He is all about appearances and little to no substance behind it. Some government functions are like that, even when the people running it have decidedly more substance behind it than this shriveled mandarin. I would have looked at a gazillion other issues first if I were him but I also take pride in not being him or being similar to him in any way. So let him have his silly ballroom. The construction of which will reveal either that they cooked the numbers or [clasping pearls] it was built by immigrants without the proper visa. You can rename it the Obama ballroom or something when he’s gone (eventually/hopefully) and I suspect you can pawn the gold leaf from the walls to help reduce the budget gap he’ll undoubtedly leave behind.

They can turn it into a makeshift hospital room out of nothing, because nothing is what they are going to have.

Homeless shelter and soup kitchen! The President is there every other Thursday serving food and drinks to the guests. As is tradition.

The East Wing historically was used as an art gallery and offices for the First Lady and her staff.
The Ballroom will likely be used as an art gallery, and offices for the first lady.

Gotta ask the King of England to ask the Canadians politely to do the deed.

I’m fairly convinced he’s building it because he has no intention of his regime being over. It will be passed down to his son as the next Reichful ruler. :/
compostgoblin@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 months ago
I agree he has no intentions of leaving office, but neither of his sons have the charisma to carry on the cult of personality. Whenever and however he dies, there is going to be a massive power struggle that ensures, and I don’t know if there’s anyone that can pull off being the sole inheritor of the MAGA movement

Need somewhere to put the National Museum about his atrocities once he is gone and all his “friends” write books outlining the horrible things he did to continue their grift.
