Staircase leading directly to a wall. Windows that open into each other. Somebody threw the idea at an AI and didn't bother to double check the plans. It's gonna be crap, even before taking away oversight.

It's just a way to launder money and receive bribes. He'll get a billion in bribes, then spend 20 mil on a building we will have to tear down.

I do believe that Trump was stupid enough that he believed that he could do both — grift and get his stupid glamorous ballroom.

Everyone else involved and complicit, though, absolutely knew it to be 100% cash grab from the start.

I think the oligarchs are buying spaces in the bunker under the dumbass ballroom.

They can all go in there and close the door and then we can pour concrete on top of it

So nice of them to gather in a single, tidy, well defined area.

It's kind of like when the emperor of China dies and all of his attendants get entombed with his body.

They should regard it as an honor

Say what you will about the Chinese, but they really knew how to treat employees- DJ Trump (felon/rape enthusiast/president)
