It makes sense. He may be able to sell off pieces of the White House after some time has passed. Burying it on property he owns gives him easy access. After all, his bathroom is busy storing US secret information.
I think he's angling for a centuries long market in trump relics just like the pieces of the true cross that altogether weigh more than a building. Maybe there's market for his foreskin, or maybe his first turd that Fred had bronzed. The MAGA idiots will buy anything.
Mr. Star's professional universe overlaps with this project. It's been a headache, all the way through, No consideration or forethought, absolutely terrible planning. Makes you wonder 0 % how Cheeto bankrupted casinos.
Trump realizes he can't actually name his Follies after himself--that would be a step too far. He knows that, instead, he can feign modesty, and his lackies in Congress will clamor-on-demand for them to be renamed after our Greatest Leader, which he will semi-modestly accept.
"The price of the ballroom ballooned this week from $200 million to $300 million, and construction on the project – originally slated to begin last month – has been delayed to an undetermined date."
Since they didn't do an assessment or take any precautions I would assume the answer is yes. The East Wing was built in the 1940's and asbestos was considered premo stuff in those days
I am surprised Trump missed out on the chance to monetize this.
Many fans would surely have paid top dollar to own a brick from the destroyed White House, signed by Agent Orange, himself.

What treasures did he steal first? How many boxes were loaded onto a plane and sent to Mar a Lago or Bedminster?
It's Statler from the Muppets! (The other one.)
I have a firm recollection of Trump rebranding the Potomac as the River of Blood.

Read Lucky Loser for a full accounting of Donald Trump's lifetime of bankrupting things.

Can we all say "TOMB"?
I think I heard him say $350 million in one of his mad rants.
I heard $400 million but maybe not
But some of it will go to arc. What is arc? No reporter bothered to ask. They never do.
I'm surprised the grifter isn't selling pieces of the East Wing as souvenirs.
Paperweights, at the least!
Extra penalty for landing in the sand traps - everyone who chops a ball out of one kicks up a cloud of toxins over themselves and everyone nearby.
Is there asbestos in the White House rubble being used on the golf course ???
Since they didn't do an assessment or take any precautions I would assume the answer is yes. The East Wing was built in the 1940's and asbestos was considered premo stuff in those days
Lead paint?
I remember seeing so
R kind of stream of water generally aimed at the rubble pile
The title showed up as just "East Wing To Be Turned Into Golf Court", and for a second I believed it.
He can call the ballroom whatever he likes. Those of us not infected with MAGAitis will call it the Mausoleum of American Democracy.
MAD is good, but calling it the Epstein Memorial Ballroom would really get under his skin.
