[Stalin]

The frump crime family have suckered the us government for billions over the years for buildings so you can expect the malignant narcissus

pay up suckers

The cost of President Donald Trump’s sprawling White House ballroom project has spiraled to $600 million, with taxpayers paying roughly half of the bill, the Washington Post reported Tuesday.

The bombshell revelation shatters Trump’s initial insistence that funding for the biggest in a series of projects remaking the People’s House would come only from private donors.

The new estimated construction cost also dwarfs the original $200 million price tag.

The Post’s reporting is based on a detailed project summary put together in March by Clark Construction, the contractor overseeing the massive White House that has seen the East Wing demolished and a secure underground bunker added to the specifications.


The Post obtained six cost estimates, including one dated March 5, indicating that the projected cost had ballooned to $600 million — with $155 million coming from the Secret Service, $149 million from the White House Military Office, and $3 million from the Executive Residence, all public funds.

The rest, or $293 million, was said to be coming from unspecified “private sources.”

The newspaper notes Trump has alluded to the Secret Service and the military contributing to security enhancements, without specifying the price of those upgrades.

As I understand it, no taxpayer dollars where to be used on this vanity project.

It's my understanding that the courts blocked this project from going forward for the time being.
