BTW, I just got a 7 day sitewide ban on Reddit for asking this same question!!
What the hell is going on there?
What are some good uses the new ballroom can have after the Trump regime is over?

Reddit is owned and operated by boot licking wannabe fascists. That’s what’s going on.

Only 7 days? Hell, I got permabanned years ago for mentioning Elon Musk’s Boring Company and their ‘Not A Flamethrower’ contraption, which is totally a flamethrower of sorts, and looks like a fucking toy!
And this was way before Elmo even mentioned the idea of buying Twitter and before Reddit went public…
Fuck Reddit and fuck Spez, they’ll just as soon ban you for mentioning facts.

Dude, get off Reddit. The thing that’s going on there now has been going on there for years. It’s a true cesspool over there and using the platform enables them and gives money to spez.

People on the Conservatives and AskTrumpSupporters subreddits love to whine about how left leaning the rest of the site is.
I think that was true enough in the past, but the last several years have changed things.
I haven’t been there in the comments for about a year now but from the regular posts on here about being banned over there make me think it’s only gotten worse.

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.

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!

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. :/

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

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 1 day 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
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 13 hours ago
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.
InfiniteHench@lemmy.world 22 hours 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.

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.

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 1 day 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.

Shelter until homeless are housed.
natecox@programming.dev 1 day ago
Fun fact: there are more vacant houses in the US than there are homeless people. We literally have an empty, unused house for every single homeless person right now.
kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
Yeah, but that would crash the airbnb market. Please remember to think of the shareholders
Bloefz@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I didn’t know that, but I do know that homelessness isn’t just a housing problem. A huge number of cases are more mental health related: E.g. even if the person had money they wouldn’t be able to live in a stable home. I would also consider drug addiction to be a mental health issue here by the way which would be a significant percentage of the homeless too.
And that is of course heavily associated with the lack of affordable mental healthcare in the US :( And drug addiction care.

Oh I'm aware! Sheltering in the WH may speed up housing!
Aeao@lemmy.world 1 day ago
A ballroom… a large meeting space? I don’t think we need a ballroom. I don’t think the presidents normally have big galas and I’d rather not make that a thing either.
I guess we just use it as a ballroom or meeting space. Since it going to happen wether I like it or not I guess we just use it for its intended purpose occasionally.
We should immediately redecorate it tho because I’m sure trump will make it look very “new money “ like he does with everything else he decorates. “More gold means more rich right? Put it everywhere!”
So embarrassing.

Demolished and have offices built.
relativestranger@feddit.nl 1 day 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.

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!)
