The MAGAs like to tell us that the president's search-and-destroy construction project at the White House is all clean because the president is not using any taxpayer dollars to build his Gilded Palace of Sin (Thanks Gram). As CNN points out, there’s an unmistakable aroma of perfumed bribery about the project .
Apple, Amazon, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Google, Coinbase, Comcast and Meta are just some of the major companies who have made donations to build President Donald Trump’s proposed 90,000-square-foot ballroom, according to the White House.
Trump has repeatedly said that work on the ballroom is privately funded by himself and donors and will cost nothing to taxpayers. On Wednesday, Trump discussed his plans for the ballroom, saying it will cost “about $300 million.”
