The president says the sound of bulldozers at the East Wing is “music to my ears.”
“You probably hear the beautiful sound of construction to the back,” Donald Trump told reporters Tuesday from a podium overlooking his newly paved “Rose Garden Club” terrace, alongside the new “Presidential Walk of Fame” featuring gold-framed portraits of his predecessors (and an “autopen” for Joe Biden).
“You hear that sound?” he said, raising his hand to his ear as if to savor the clamor from construction of the new $300 million White House ballroom that began Monday.
“Ahhh, that’s music to my ears. I love that sound. Other people don’t like it, I love it.”
It was a wry jab at Trump-deranged critics of his big, beautiful ballroom, who are losing their minds over his beautification of the White House.
Suddenly, the people who cheered on as vandal revolutionaries toppled statues of Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln or tore down Confederate monuments are ardent preservers of American history.
