In defense of the White House ballroom

In George Washington's time chamber pots and outhouses were the norm. However the highlighted text below really surprised me. 

In defense of the White House ballroom

"...... In classic Trump fashion, the president is pursuing a reasonable idea in the most jarring manner possible. Privately, many alumni of the Biden and Obama White Houses acknowledge the long-overdue need for an event space like what Trump is creating. It is absurd that tents need to be erected on the South Lawn for state dinners, and VIPs are forced to use porta-potties. ...."

Thanks Grwurston. Night and day contrast of tents versus magnificent guest areas we saw when Pres Trump visited other nations. Yep we need to step up our game to the plans you posted.

Security and logistics was a nightmare, just imagine being the agents that had to scan the Jiffy Johns for IEDs......

Thanks Jarasan. That's one thing no one mentioned, but is reality. I am happy the project is being done, and with a proven builder to oversee the project.
