"President Donald Trump complained that the White House was a sh*t house when he moved back in for his second term, claiming that the columns were falling down and plaster falling off. Trump has made numerous controversial changes to the presidential residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, including adding a significant quantity of new gold decor to the Oval Office, renovating the Lincoln Bathroom to add marble and yet more gold fixtures, and demolishing the East Wing to build a ballroom."
"During his remarks, he discussed his opinion of the physical condition of the building. This place was not properly taken care of, said Trump. He said that First Lady Melania Trump had told him to act presidential and don't use foul language, but then he went ahead and said, normally I would have said it was a sh*t house, but I don't wanna say that. The columns were falling down. The plaster was falling off, he claimed, adding the paint job was in disrepair as well, but this place is tippy-top now."
"Trump touted all the brand-new beautiful new stone, I paid for it myself, saying that we're bringing the White House back to shape. I spent a lot of time on bringing this house back, because this house was in very bad shape, he said, and the White House should be incredible and pristine. And the big thing is, we're building a ballroom in the back, which will be, I think, the most beautiful ballroom anywhere in the world, he continued."
"You'll never see anything like it. And it will also be very safe. It's going to be a very safe ballroom. It's got glass this thick, it's amazing, the glass is this thick, like six inches thick, and you look through it, and you can see as perfectly as though it weren't there. Now, how they do that, I don't know, but it's at the highest level of safety, and you won't have a situation like"
