But I think the whole notion is poisoned for a good while.
Yeah, nobody’s going to want to throw good money after bad to tear it down again. Maybe at some point after Trump dies and therefore can’t gloat, it’ll actually get used for state dinners and such. In the meantime, I personally think you’ll see the space partitioned into cube farms and temporary offices, and in particular you’ll see the First Lady (or Gentleman) and staff plopped back down over there.
We’re gonna see a fight with Congress trying to not quite stop the ballroom construction but trying to get it through the proper channels, and Trump just telling the contractors what to do. Who knows.
If I’m the Democrats, I try to figure out a way to get something of value to the American people in exchange for letting him fuck off to play with his toys for the next two years. Whatever it is would be cheaply bought, especially if it distracts him from doing anything of actual importance, which by this point we know will be stupid and bad.
My thoughts as well! It doesn’t have to be a monster ballroom. We can have a proper ballroom and much, much more in that space. I say finish at least the shell, get that weatherproof, work out the rest later.

Set him up an office and let him pretend work like they did for his dad’s dementia.
