Tucker Carlson has raised this point a few times in speeches in recent years. Why do all of our post-World War II buildings in America look like hot garbage? Mentally healthy people agree with that sentiment. President Donald Trump agrees and is converting the ugly East Wing of the White House into a fancy ballroom for big events. Democrats are suddenly beyond apoplectic about this. They’ve gone completely bonkers over the idea that America should start constructing pretty buildings once again.
Failed 2020 presidential candidate Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is demanding a loyalty pledge from all Democrats who plan to run in 2028. They must promise to demolish the Trump ballroom if they plan to secure the nomination. What a bizarre hill to die on.
The shrieking harpies on ABC’s “The View” claim that the ballroom is absolute proof that Donald Trump is a dictator and that he plans to never leave office.
“Why else would he build a fancy ballroom unless he intends to use it?! Duh!”
Dude, it’s just the East Wing. Democrats act as if Trump is destroying some vital piece of American history. The East Wing was slapped together in the 1940s to conceal a bomb shelter. It’s ugly and outdated. It’s not as ugly as Barack Obama’s library in Chicago, which looks like a North Korean guard tower had a baby with an air fryer designed by Lego engineers. The East Wing is (was) still pretty ugly, though.
The USA is coming up on our 250th anniversary. It’s kind of ridiculous when you realize that after all this time of being an amazing country, we don’t have a formal building where state dinners and formal events can take place in the nation’s capital.
Every time there’s a state dinner, they have to spend millions of dollars to set up tents on the White House lawn. They drag in chairs and tables, and if it’s chilly outside, they set up space heaters. It’s like a Cheap Trick concert at the county fair, and everyone has to crap in a porta-potty. Seriously bush league.
“We couldn’t afford a better venue, so we hope that King Charles and the other dignitaries enjoy the reception here at the Golden Corral!”
Another important factor in constructing the Fancy Trump Ballroom of Magnificence is that it will be much more drone-proof than tents and porta-potties on the lawn. In the dawning age of drone warfare, it’s a massive security risk to have the president and foreign heads of state sitting out in the open in a tent. That’s one thing we’ve learned from the war in Ukraine.
The new ballroom will have a metal roof that the structural engineers believe will (hopefully) be drone-proof.
So, there are practical reasons for demolishing the East Wing, in addition to the fact that we’ll have a new building that will be aesthetically pleasing. The new East Wing will be beautiful. Looking at it will not make you feel like jumping off a bridge, because beautiful things are important and pleasing to look at.
Democrats don’t want us to have nice things. They want our spirits crushed. The Washington Post ran an obituary for the ugly old East Wing titled, “The East Wing is gone. Here’s why it’s been called ‘the heart’ of the nation.”
Yeah. How will we move forward without the White House bookshop and the Calligraphy Office? It’s the end of an era, or something.
It’s also the end of the White House Family Theater, where the wholesome Biden family spent four years screening movies about pedophiles, transgender hookers, gay pornos, and topless girls on Spring Break to their weirdo friends.

The same people who spent four years tearing down our nation’s beautiful statues and monuments are now going crazy over a building that was, honestly, not all that impressive. If you’ve ever seen any of President Trump’s properties, you can rest assured that the new ballroom is going to be swanky.
Don’t we deserve nice things as a country? Our cities are filled with crime, filth, graffiti, and garbage. There are homeless people everywhere. All of our modern buildings are ugly eyesores. They suck. President Trump is creating something beautiful and Democrats are vowing to tear it down the moment they regain power.
As for the rest of us, we can’t wait to see the results at the grand opening of the Fancy Trump Ballroom of Magnificence. Maybe Trump will give his inauguration speech there in 2029!
