    Lol! Again…are you seriously comparing those kinds of upgrades with Trump literally demolishing the entire fucking East Wing, just so that he can build a ballroom that no one needs? You’re comparing security upgrades and single room remodelling projects, to the complete destruction of a third of the White House.

    On some level, there has to be some part of your brain that is capable of recognizing the difference. I can’t accept that you lack even that basic capacity for critical thought.

    At the very least, are you aware of the difference in procedure that was followed on every one of those previous projects, compared with Trump not following any approval process, at all? There were no official consultations with heritage groups, historical planners or anyone in the government whose job it is to protect National sites from being unduly modified or damaged. There is a legal approval process that needs to be followed…and Trump just skipped all of that, and called in a wrecking crew.

    Every single one of the upgrades and renovations that you mentioned, followed those procedures, and they all had expert approval, as well as Congressional support.

            Oh, well that makes total sense, then…because of course it was impossible for Trump to hold off on these renovations until he could do them LEGALLY…right? And of course there’s absolutely nothing that Republicans can do to reinstate the healthcare subsidies they cancelled in the summer, and get the government reopened…right?

            I mean, how could anyone expect Trump to follow the law, when there are all these things that he has total control over, stopping him from doing things legally?

            You have no idea how stupid all these excuses make you sound.

                Man, if all you can do is come back with more made-up excuses, then you aren’t actually making a valid argument.

                You think people are obsessed with blaming Trump for every little thing…when he is literally breaking the law, every other day…but can’t seem to grasp the concept that you guys are the ones obsessed with making excuses for him. At some point, you’ve got to realize that you aren’t on the right side of this debate.
