"What happened last night is exactly the reason that our great Military, Secret Service, Law Enforcement and, for different reasons, every President for the last 150 years, have been DEMANDING that a large, safe, and secure Ballroom be built ON THE GROUNDS OF THE WHITE HOUSE, Trump wrote on Truth Social."
"There's an affordability crisis out there. Nobody gives a shit about the ballroom except for the president."
"They're so misaligned with what the American people need and what they want, Menendez said."
Rep. Rob Menendez expressed skepticism regarding President Trump's claim that a new White House ballroom is necessary for safety after a shooting incident at the Hilton during the Correspondents' Dinner. Trump emphasized the need for a secure venue, citing historical demands from past presidents. However, Menendez highlighted the disconnect between Republican priorities and the needs of the American public, particularly in light of an ongoing affordability crisis. He criticized the idea of using taxpayer funds for the ballroom, asserting that it is not a priority for most citizens.
