"The Democrats are upset because Trump is so unconstrained and he's so ambitious and he's wielding executive power so confidently, and none of their presidents ever did, and nothing they can do can check his power, said Watters on The Five during a discussion about Trump's controversial demolition of the East Wing of the White House to create a grand ballroom."
"They feel like they've squandered the opportunity in the executive office to do grand things, to make peace deals, to redo the world trade order, and they're looking at a guy who they thought was just like a pockmark in history come back and be a consequential president, and he's so consequential he's leaving a symbolic and physical legacy right there on the footprint of the most hallowed grounds in Washington, D.C., and they can't wrap their head around it."
"During a speech at the White House on Tuesday, Trump took a moment to admire the sound of the East Wing's demolition and the ballroom's construction. You probably hear the beautiful sound of construction to the back. You hear that sound? Ooh, that's music to my ears. I love that sound. Other people don't like it, I love it, he said. When I hear that sound, it reminds me of money"

The East Wing of the White House was demolished to create a grand ballroom, with construction noises celebrated as "music" and likened to money. Commentary credits Trump with grand initiatives such as reshaping world trade and cutting historic peace deals while depicting Democrats as having squandered executive opportunities. The demolition is framed as a lasting symbolic and physical legacy on hallowed White House grounds that future presidents, including Democrats, will inherit and enjoy.
