I wonder if all the MAGAts like it? And those conservative Republicans, the real ones, how can they support the destruction, the idiotic uselessness of the planned ballroom?

Real conservatives like tradition and historical details. The filthy-rich can always build another useless ballroom, castle or palace. But they can never build another historical White House.

It will all end up looking like a cheap whore house, like everything pedo Trump builds. Just another overpriced useless bauble for the flilthy-rich to play with while the peasant starve.
