Trump Reportedly Wants Name Of New Ballroom To Honour His Favourite Person In The World
Donald Trump has reportedly picked a name for the new ballroom that will replace the East Wing of the White House, and it’s a true measure of his humility.
Katherine Faulders, ABC’s managing editor in Washington, posted on social media Friday that “Trump will likely name the new $300 million ballroom after himself,” and cited senior administration officials as her source.
“Already, officials are referring to it as “The President Donald J. Trump Ballroom” and that name will likely stick,” she added.
President Trump will likely name the new $300 million ballroom after himself, I'm told by senior admin officials. Already, officials are referring to it as "The President Donald J. Trump Ballroom" and that name will likely stick.

Trump’s ballroom project has come under fire for starting to build during a government shutdown, and for not submitting plans to the agency that oversees the construction of federal buildings.
When reached for comment, White House Spokesman Davis Ingle told HuffPost: “Any announcement made on the name of the ballroom will come directly from President Trump himself, and not through anonymous and unnamed sources.”
Considering that back in 2019, Trump criticized George Washington for not naming Mount Vernon after himself, many people didn’t seem shocked he would choose to make the ballroom a personal tribute.

During a 2019 visit to Mount Vernon, Trump said: “If (Washington) was smart, he would've put his name on it. You've got to put your name on stuff, or no one remembers you.”

Trump will be remembered, bitterly. Much of the world will cheer when he makes headlines for a final time.
Some people thought another person near and dear to Trump would be a better name on the ballroom.
It will be known as the Epstein ballroom until it is rubble. There should be nothing that celebrates the most corrupt administration in American history. https://t.co/nP83cLT0QO

Nobody on the planet will call it that, because everyone knows it's real name.#TheEpsteinBallroompic.twitter.com/GXjxZDHNO6

Not the Ghilsaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein protector’s ballroom?

Others speculated on what might happen to the ballroom after Trump leaves office.
If a possible Democratic president really wants to mess with him, they could change the name to Obama

Then that 100 percent eventually gets blown to smithereens.

He knew nobody else would honor him. So the bastard tore down the East Wing to build a monument to himself.
But as fast as they’re moving, you know they’re cutting corners. It’ll probably blow over in a stiff breeze. https://t.co/2wM74zduKq
It'll stick until Jan 20 2028, along with the Gulf of Mexico and Dept of Defense...

That Ballroom will be dismantled in 2028 and it’s parts sold to pay toward our astronomical debt. The East Wing and Rose Garden will be rebuilt.

Most Americans want to be rid of the Stench of Trump and won’t want to have to look at it. What’s his approval rating… 39%? pic.twitter.com/U9EPjFkiLk
