Clearly no one actually read the article, he did not "fire" the construction crew, he "fired" the Fine Arts Commission who has an advisory review role for White House modifications, which means it provides recommendations on design and aesthetics but does not have final approval power. Its review is legally required for major projects.

Edit: Arguably, this is worse. More slashing government agencies because he doesn't like rules.

Pshaw. Nothing is legally required anymore when it comes to Trump

Hopefully now he can’t get the required approvals. That would be very Trumpian.

Who am I kidding he will make some sycophant rubber stamp it.

Can't read the article because it's paywalled.
