    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.

    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.

    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!)

    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.

      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

    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!

      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.

      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.

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

      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.

      Only 7 days? Hell, I got permabanned from Reddit 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.
