Hell if the house was that important the Canadians should have invaded in 2017 and burned it down again, maybe we’d be spared this timeline of stepping on the same Lego but harder this go round

People put historic buildings in a weird place above other things. I think it’s partly because they’re symbols but also because they’re massive. But yeah, if this really radicalizes someone, good. Better late than never.

By building this HUGE, UGLY, ILLEGAL ballroom

Aw fuck, I didn’t even think about that. So when he’s out of there, it’ll get rebuilt at taxpayer expense again. Meanwhile, you know it’s going to be gaudy trash.

I honestly cannot wait until this sack of shit is dead

Given the fact that he’s sure as shit not using union labor, that’s almost garaunteed

Once the workers checks start bouncing that’ll happen. Remember, a Trump never pays their debts.

He’s not known for telling truths.

To be clear, the White House was destroyed the moment a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and literal insurrectionist made it his home.

Unfortunately, crooks and rapists and insurrectionists are the norm for occupying the White House over its history. Like, if you want to apply this standard, the White House was destroyed back under the Jefferson administration.

Right, because it was fine when it was the home of slave owners, rapists, racists, genociders, imperialists, war criminals?

Americans need to learn their own history better.

Trump is a fascist pedophile who will probably have to be killed to leave. The White House has been home to genociders and rapists many times before though. To occlude the historical brutality of the United States is self-destructive and makes you less curious about how and why a pedophile rapist is right at home in the White House.

Tear it down with him in it.

Fuck yeah, just keep that excavator going until it goes all the way through the Lincoln Bedroom window.

We don’t need that building anymore. Raze it. We need something else after this motherfucker.

They never should have rebuilt it after 1814.

Credit where credit is due. 🇨🇦

Its a big deal because, aside from everything else, any construction on any government owned buildings requires a approval process that has not been done. This approval process is because the US taxpayers own this building, the president does not. They (the administration) are claiming that only “construction” needs to be approved and “demolition” does not, this is why they went ahead and started this project without approval.

Yes.

1. it is a historical landmark building, you cannot just start doing shit to them without going through the proper channels.

2. it is in the city of Washington DC, and they need to be included in the process.

3. they have not provided plans, something needed for literally any construction project.

4. they are not even bothering to shield the site, so anyone from any intelligence agency from any country can watch.

5. Congress holds the purse strings per the US Constitution. The president cannot just unilaterally do this shit. This is what autocrats do.

Depends—do you often hire companies to perform construction or renovation on houses you don’t own?

Afaik they have not put in the plans to the planning board or whatever. Basically they did not go through the right procedures but literally just started demolishing the building.

Cool, I’ll tell that to my landlord when I demolish the living room with no plans to fix it.
