Related: About this forumTrump's Ballroom Lies! - Glenn Kirschner
Donald Trump promised the American people that his vanity project ballroom wouldn't cost US taxpayers a single dime. And then, the truth began to emerge.
New reporting from The Washington Post shows that taxpayers will be paying for at least half of the projected $600 million cost.
Donald Trump says he needs a ballroom because that's the only way he and other dignitaries can safely attend a function on White House grounds. And then, Donald Trump sits for hours in an open-air, ultimate fighting arena. Where? On White House grounds.
Donald Trump's lies are endless. - Glenn Kirschner - 06/16/2026.

not one cent.
Hell we are paying for his fucked birthday shit and July 4th. Paying for conflicts created by this administration.
But this administration will not provide US citizens with affordable healthcare, a stable economy, but all the while dismantling Department of Education and other departments that US citizens can benefit from because the rich is greedy as hell.
