    Someone told him Congress will approve crazy requests if he can make them sound like they're for the military. Which is true, but he's so demented at this point that he can't connect any of the other obvious dots.

    This is just to claim that building it is a national security matter to bypass laws intended to regulate the construction of vanity projects. It's just lies.

    Because of course a wealthy, powerful democracy needs a base for drones and snipers inside the capital city which consciously resembles a monument to Roman imperialism.

    Fixed that for you.

    Not defending conservatives, mind you, just think it's important to be accurate about what these crazies are..

    Conservatives have always been on board with this shit. They just used to come up with semi-plausible explanations for it.

    All that's happened is trump gave them permission to start saying the quiet parts out loud.

    Sounds like a primo place to store that class of battleships that he was promoting about nine months ago.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump-class_battleship

    On 22 December 2025, U.S. president Donald Trump announced the Trump class, with two ships to be initially constructed of 10 planned, and eventual plans for "between 20 and 25" as part of a "Golden Fleet".

    They could be stacked atop each other.

    It doesn't matter, it's coming down as soon as he's out. Then we need to pass a Federal law that it is illegal to name anything after Trump, except for Sewage Treatment Plants. That way, whenever anyone passes one, they can say "Wow, the Trump is particularly stinky today, much worse than usual."

    In British slang apparently trump already is a "childs" term used for fart.

    So in the U.S. some say they tooted, British kids might say they trumped

    I bet someone told him it was a top secret place to store weapons, and he was like "got it" and tweeted immediately about the "top grade" place.

    So just like most of the things he’s built, it’ll self implode, collapse shortly after he’s siphoned off as much of the funds as he can.

    Knowing the Wehraboos that hang around him, this was possibly inspired by the Berlin flak towers.

    Maybe the horse men will ride their horses in the hole to get their tools and swords outpf the hole.

    Or you know, the Chinese drones after a long drone flight might feel perky and take some loops around it. Great use of my tax money. How about also digging very deep holes out in the desert, just to see what's in there?

    Seriously, everything about conservatives is so easy to make fun of.

    They really are like 8 year old boys - Hegseth swears the Department of Defense is the Department of War and blabbers about "lethality" and how manly his men are. Also, no girls allowed in his club.

    Donnie thinks he knows space because of his uncle who died in 1985, but has to dress that up in a "Space Force", because exploring place without making it sound macho might be gay.

    Also, donnie wants to prop up the AI bubble to make more money for himself, so has to dress it up in creating an "AI Force" with a "czar" leading it. Remember when everyone was having the vapors over Obama's "czars"?

    And with this, donnie wants a fancy ballroom and a fancy arch, but has to dress it up in war talk.

    Just enough of Congress (and the Supreme Court) to let him get away with shit like this.

    Do you think he’s saying this stuff for the people already in his pocket? Of course not.

    This blathering is for the people, who should keep in mind that the person they voted for has greasy slimy shit running down his leg when he talks like this

  • Inside will be hidden all the pictures of trump sex trafficking little girls. Only to be discovered in two hundred years by Nic Cages great grandson following clues left by by the administrations civil servants placed in the ballroom and Kennedy Center construction. The last clue will be at the bottom of the reflecting pool.

    Oh, I realize, but the only people that really seem to fall for this cover story are conservatives:

    It's a ballroom.....BUT WITH GUNZ N STUFF!

    It's an arch.....BUT WITH GUNZ N STUFF!!!!

    Yep this is just Trump learning from the ballroom and leading with "Umm... actually my tacky multi billion dollar boondoggle is a vital security installation. We need it for national security and stuff."

    An arch stuffed full of guns and explosives, like a concrete death piñata. It’s the fantasy invention of a four-year-old. Actually my four-year-old could probably come up with something more practical.

    We can put guns on top of it that fire laser beams! And rockets to make it blast off into space!

    Might as add another arch and make a “M,” as a tribute to cronyism.

    If they're anything like the Nazi flak towers they'll be here for a while. Even though they're a huge eye soar and reminder of a horrible past they can't demolish them without nuking it.

    One attempted demolition of the zoo tower after the war: giant explosion

    After: building standing mostly intact

    You are going to build a public monument and then stuff it full of weapons requiring high security?

    He needs to say it's going to be the largest public bathroom in the U.S.

    Put his face in the toilet bowls, and I'd be happy to shit there.

    Our ding-a-ling of a president claims it will be a "drone port".

    He also claims any drone that hits it will "bounce off" and that it will be missile proof, too.

    This is the guy where it's not entirely clear if he understands that stealth planes are not invisible, though...
