"Debris from the White House's demolished East Wing, which was reduced to rubble to make way for President Donald Trump's planned $300 million ballroom, is reportedly being hauled to a Washington golf course the president has shown interest in refurbishing. Trucks were seen carting away loads of dirt from the East Wing demolition site on Friday, then depositing them at East Potomac Park, an island course along the Potomac River, The Washington Post reported."
"The nearby USA Today reported the same and captured video of an alleged East Wing debris drop-off at the East Potomac Golf Links. The revelation comes two months after Politico revealed Trump was eyeing a refurb and rebrand of the course. The idea reportedly began as a staffer's suggestion, which Trump embraced by autographing a rendering of a golden logo like those of his private clubs. The redesign proposal included a new name: the Washington National Golf Course."
Debris from the White House's demolished East Wing is being hauled to East Potomac Park and deposited on the island golf course along the Potomac River. Trucks were observed carting loads of dirt from the demolition site and dumping them at East Potomac Golf Links to form mounds. Multiple workers confirmed the dirt came from the East Wing demolition and that it will be used to create new terrain on the course. The move follows reporting that President Trump has expressed interest in refurbishing and rebranding the public course, including a proposed new name and logo. The East Potomac site operates under a 50-year lease signed in 2020.
