MODERATORS
The one they're building on top of a ~~skynet~~ stargate data center yes. It's a giant dogshit AI cluster for Oracle to run Grok in.
Some democrat should run for president on the platform that they will completely dismantle this thing starting on day one. As trivial as that would be relative to the shitshow that is this country’s overall status, I believe it would meaningfully move support. Of course, no democrat will ever do that because they are more concerned with appearing decorous than winning or ever accomplishing anything.
It would be a powerful symbolic gesture of healing. anyone who isn't willing to do this is too weak to be the candidate America needs to heal.
If there's ever a new admin they'll need to anyway. Guaranteed that thing is riddled with listening/tracking devices.
Honestly damn thing probably isn't even built to code.
Dismantling it would be a further waste of money. The best thing they could do is rename it the Barrack Hussein Obama Ballroom.
It would be worth the loss of money to deter future presidential vanity projects.
If Trump's still alive to see the ballroom finished, hopefully he's still alive to see it knocked down.
Rebuild the Whitehouse and make Trump pay for it
I would love to see that being a prominent part of the platform. Along with many more kitchen table issues, yes, but I hate it when Democrats are such pussies about stuff like this.
Let's not waste even more money tearing it down, just show the public the bunker underneath, maybe open it up to tourists, and get some decent designers to zhuzh up the ballroom after we've used it for the tribunals for this entire administration and their collaborators.
Repossess trump's assets and sell them off to cover the cost of restoring the Whitehouse.
This is really dumb.
The soullessness of pedo-fascism.
Ngl that looks like shit.
‘Soulless hotel conference space’: Trump’s Jeffrey Epstein Memorial ballroom is poised for approval despite scathing public feedback
Who knew something associated with Epstein would be soulless?
I wonder if they took any influences from nazi architecture.
