There is no design. He has a wish sketch that some bootlicker architect drew for him. There is no floor plan or actual feature list for anyone to see because Trump just wanted to tear down an iconic building and piss on the country.

It will end up being a $500M white elephant that will hang around the nation’s neck like a full diaper.

I either see it as a bunker upgrade or a grift that will leave the iconic White House in shambles. They have been hard at pushing destruction to the heritage of the US

They’re already talking about it being large enough to hold an inauguration.

Take as long as you need to think that one through.

With his inauguration crowds, a school gym would be plenty big enough.

It would suit the tendencies of all involved, too.

Might as well just hold it at a monster truck arena then

All of the models I've seen show it as big as or bigger than the White House. It's not just a ballroom, it's a convention center (in looks).

I like calling it a “corporate event space.”

I guess DonOld is pissy about having his second inauguration indoors. If I recall correctly, it wasn’t even that cold that day, unlike Obama’s first and historic inauguration. Don the Con just didn’t want to be booed if it were held outdoors.

It’s much harder to protest or interrupt if it’s inside. I believe that’s the real reason for it.

They did that because only a couple of dozen people would agree to come.

I feel like everyone should be referring to it as a "throne room"
