""This event would never have happened with the Militarily Top Secret Ballroom currently under construction at the White House," Trump claimed in a Truth Social post on Sunday morning."
""This event is yet another reason that President @realDonaldTrump's ballroom should be built!" Gov. Jeff Landry (R-Louisiana), who was at the event when the shooting occurred, said on X."
""Halting construction would imperil the President," a Department of Justice court brief states."
A shooting incident occurred outside the White House Correspondents' Dinner, leading President Trump and allies to advocate for a ballroom at the White House for security. The White House Correspondents' Association, however, prefers hosting events outside to maintain independence from the administration. The shooting raised concerns about the safety of the Washington Hilton and the effectiveness of Secret Service security measures. Trump emphasized the need for the ballroom, claiming it would have prevented the incident.
