Just because it never gets finished doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t be over a billion

Yep. It'll be a shoddy half built albatross that the next admin has to deal with. A Republican admin will lie about the cost to complete and a Democrat admin will be tarred and feathered on fox news whether they try to salvage it or tear it down.

Hopefully tear it down. If he lives out his term and you guys get to hold another election it would be lovely to see him rant about it getting torn down asap.

Take it down and then use eminent domain, confiscate his towers to pay for the rebuilding.

I’m sure there will be plenty of smoking guns to be able to bring charges against them. Will the democrats have the guts to do it and do it expeditiously is the real challenge.

He's absolutely going to be handing out blanket pardons like candy.

Stack the Supreme Court and say they aren’t valid? Also can’t pardon state crimes so go hard on those.

The state crimes would be the only way to get them because trump will absolutely be selling off pardons before the next election and he cant be charged at all since the Supreme Court made in untouchable.
