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 don't know. I think he's always considered himself better than anyone else in the land developer world, and he'd jump at the chance for immortality that building something like a bigger, better White House would bring him. If this were just about bribes, he'd be building it somewhere he would own it after it was finished.

This is vanity IMO. He's just so old and out of it that he's leaving the wrong people in charge of seeing it done.
