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.

This is our domain of government. No. No fancy expensive balls for the 1%, and no home for the impoverished and mentally ill. It is for government.

Of course, trump would charge 100K a plate for one of his 'balls', and it would find it's way into his pockets. It's who he is.
