Subject: Re: The Ballroom
The White House was an icon, as is the US Capitol building, as is the Treasury building, as is Monticello, as is Mount Vernon, etc. Modern buildings have been, and will continue to be built to meet the needs of government.

I agree, but I'll wait until about six month after the ballroom opens to see how it fares. If its gaudy, we would want to deTrump it.

If we make it back to being a democracy, how are we gonna erect guardrails to prevent another Trump? We won't ever be able to get anything done.
