6. Now a vote?

The time to vote on what to replace with was before tearing an entire wing down and leaving a crater next to The White House.

But Mr. Apprentice always gets what he wants. It's like a spoiled child wanting different shoes, so they destroy the existing ones to guarantee parents have to replace them and can't say "the shoes you have now are fine."

Infuriating. They could have proposed a new separate gathering facility elsewhere on the WH property and probably had the Rs approve it instead of tearing half the WH apart in preparation with no concrete plans in place.
