        I hope the Democratic Party officially asks the companies and the billionaires who control those companies one question. Why did you pay to trash the White House east wing after  Trump promised faithfully he would'nt touch the existing building.
It was a deliberately spiteful act done by the Trump following the mass protests against the tyrant. He did it the very next day.
