How to guarantee the ballroom gets taken down

Name it after yourself

Democrats will run on tearing it down as a campaign promise.

I wonder what their boogeyman will be once Trump is gone.

I’m just glad it’s named after Donald J. Trump so we don’t get it confused with other Donald Trump presidents.

I suspect Trump will never be truly gone from the American people’s psyche. The Republican Party will be labeled as the party of Trump for a long time. And they will deserve that label for a long time.

Sure. At some point it will be quaint, like elderly ranting basket cases, smiled at politely, and otherwise ignored by society. "People of their time".

But I guess that generation can always show up in the voting booth, as elderly people do, voting to service their life-long grudge against Donald Trump and the stain he left on the Republican party.

He's taken being a twat to a whole new level.
It's getting difficult to even joke about his humourless character and narcissistic actions

[kluurs]

While he has enough self love to make him the most beloved President of all time, for all the stones thrown at him, it is probably safe to say that he is the most transformational President since Reagan, and possibly since FDR - and he's not done yet. If he is able to reinstitute slavery, deny women the right to vote, he may pass Lincoln - his goal.

If they pledged that, they still don't understand how to win elections. That won't inspire new folks on the left to register to vote, and the independents in the middle (and even some anti-Trump conservatives like me) don't really care. I actually think the ballroom makes some sense in terms of hosting dinners for foreign leaders. Now, did he go about it the right way? Probably not... just like the massive "don't look at my small hands" american flag on the north lawn looks just gaudy (when I saw it 2 weeks ago while in town).
