I think if it were Obama, nothing would be said about it. I think just because it’s President Trump there is the hate that some have for him. Not this much controversy when all the other changes were done by other presidents. None of this is costing taxpayers as it has in the past.

Fred

Please provide an example of such an expansive change ... this ballroom is likely to turn out to be larger than the White House itself! I don't doubt we'll see a TRUMP sign on it before it is finished!

Max

Trump is improving the White House, and he is using private funding to do that.

Fred

Right ... "private funding" in exchange for pardons and other favors. The more accurate description is BRIBES.

Separation of the rich and poor is getting wider. I was never invited to watch a movie in the movie room just like I'll never be invited to any dances.....I think we'd be better off if they tore down the west wing

STOP THIS MANIAC!!!

Kelly Branstetter

It's history, it's respect and honor, the ballroom was never approved and the drawings show it overshadowing the White House itself. Awful

The fact there is not already one or any attempt at common sense enforcement speaks volumes in it's own right. Maybe we need another department and a 10 year study.......

Fred

We used to have government funded mental institutions that would have handled this, but Reagan handed this off to the states who didn't have the money to continue funding.

Max

They spent all of the money on the Left leaning group.

If the City passes this, the homeless will not go away. They will move into the surrounding neighborhoods. Your children will step over the homeless as they walk to school and you will hear screaming all night long..

It's about safety

Right now ICE brings fear and anger and there is no place for them at the Olympics.

ICE is keeping America safe.
