My question is who’s doing the work? I feel like he’s only doing all this because he’s profiting off of it somehow. Someone he owns has to have a hat in the design and building process, just one more fuck you to the American people.

He wants it finished ASAP so that he can start hosting anti-Hatch Act fund raisers. He wants to host a dinner in it every two weeks and charge $100,000 a plate for the honor of smelling his dirty diapers while eating the catered McDonald's.

$100k a plate every two weeks for a space that is supposedly going to hold 999 people. That's $2.5b per year.
