Trump has complained that a stupid lawsuit forced him to reveal plans to build a top-secret military base underneath his White House ballroom.
The 79-year-old president was defending his $400 million vanity project while speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday night, after a New York Times article over the weekend exposed the shoddy nature of its construction and design.
While holding comically large placards detailing how the completed ballroom might look, Trump also gave updates on what is being built beneath the area where the White House East Wing once stood.
The military is building a big complex under the ballroom, which has come out recently because of a stupid lawsuit that was filed, he said.
The ballroom essentially becomes a shed [shield] for whats being built under the military, including from drones, and including from any other thing, Trump added. The glass, or the windows, you see the big windows, the glass is extremely thick. Its high-grade bulletproof glass, so all of the windows are bulletproof.

(23,251 posts)...and I'd assume "building a Military complex on White House grounds" requires more prior approval than was sought by Trump.

Whatever it was going to be, there was too much space required just to be a throne room, err, ball room.

Can we skip to the end where he unalives himself in the bunker? He's doing everything Hitler did.
