BTW, I just got a 7 day sitewide ban on Reddit for asking this same question!!

What the hell is going on there?

Maybe a big courtroom like what Nuremberg was used for after WW2.

A man can dream.

Remember that scene in Inglorious Basterds where they lock the cinema full of Nazi officers and set it on fire?

Cool scene, just thought I'd bring it up.

Wouldn't it make a good court room for a Nuremberg-style trial to hold the current Junta responsible for their crimes and treason? And remember: "I was just following orders" is not a valid excuse!

Being torn down and replaced with a rose garden.

Executing Trump.

Anti-fascism museum

Free venue for queer weddings

Nuremberg trials

I'm fairly convinced he's building it because he has no intention of his regime being over. It will be passed down to his son as the next Reichful ruler. :/

Impeachment ceremonies?

Shelter until homeless are housed.

We could probably take the ballroom apart very carefully and use the materials to rebuild the east wing but, once started, we'd discover that trumpy cut corners like hell to line his pockets even more and the ballroom is just a pig shell of nothingness, but with golden lipstick.

Probably be a great place to broadcast the hangings from.

Homeless shelter and soup kitchen! The President is there every other Thursday serving food and drinks to the guests. As is tradition.

The Epstein Ballroom?

Guillotine museum.

Bold of you to assume they ever plan on leaving. He’s already handing out Trump 2028 hats and Bannon is just doing media interviews telling everyone he isn’t leaving.

You don’t tear down an entire wing from one of the most (symbolically) important buildings in the country just to throw parties for a couple years and then leave.

I'm not convinced it's going to survive the civil war that is required to get Trump and his cronies out of power.

Seems like it'll have plenty of space for a guillotine.

A guillotine is all that's needed in there

Blow it the fuck up. Erase that shit stains legacy.

A ballroom… a large meeting space? I don’t think we need a ballroom. I don’t think the presidents normally have big galas and I’d rather not make that a thing either.

I guess we just use it as a ballroom or meeting space. Since it going to happen wether I like it or not I guess we just use it for its intended purpose occasionally.

We should immediately redecorate it tho because I’m sure trump will make it look very “new money “ like he does with everything else he decorates. “More gold means more rich right? Put it everywhere!”

So embarrassing.

Demolished and have offices built.

Make it a rollerskate disco venue

Kindling

A free retirement villa for all the citizens he took healthcare & SNAP away from.

Turn it into a pigsty.

Use the pigs to feed the hungry.

Also, breed the pigs to look like Trump.

(I mean, if the Danes could get a pig breed to look like their flag, I'm sure Americans can get a pig breed to look like Trump. I mean, they're already almost there!)

A tourist attraction, an unhallowed mausoleum to store Trump's rotting corpse where people can walk by & spit on it or throw tomatoes at it or pour gasoline & matches on it or whatever.

Need somewhere to put the National Museum about his atrocities once he is gone and all his “friends” write books outlining the horrible things he did to continue their grift.

The East Wing historically was used as an art gallery and offices for the First Lady and her staff.

The Ballroom will likely be used as an art gallery, and offices for the first lady and her staff.

You can have an epic bossfight!

• Make it a high end wedding venue.
• Partition it out as apartments for the homeless.
• Sell it to The Wizards.
• Make it an escape room.
• SA support group meetings.
• A Trump museum with displays and info on all his failed businesses.
• FEMA staging area.

we can bury him there and invite everyone over to dance

On a list of priorities, having a ballroom for state dinners and what not would not be high on mine. But as a big government whose reputation 47 hasn't ruined entirely (yet), I can see the usefulness of a dedicated ballroom for these functions. He is all about appearances and little to no substance behind it. Some government functions are like that, even when the people running it have decidedly more substance behind it than this shriveled mandarin. I would have looked at a gazillion other issues first if I were him but I also take pride in not being him or being similar to him in any way. So let him have his silly ballroom. The construction of which will reveal either that they cooked the numbers or [clasping pearls] it was built by immigrants without the proper visa. You can rename it the Obama ballroom or something when he's gone (eventually/hopefully) and I suspect you can pawn the gold leaf from the walls to help reduce the budget gap he'll undoubtedly leave behind.

Lol @ @muttmutt@lemmy.world downvoting everything in this post
