Paid for by Donors? That was a lie.

You're the one who seems triggered here and elsewhere on this forum. Some question: "What do you believe that is difference from what Marx espoused about capitalism"? Not even a lucid question. Nor a relevant one if made lucid since like almost all liberals I'm a capitalist myself.

really/ So you oppose Mamdami and his grocery store scheme? Because if you do, I have never seen you start a thread about it.

I can wait.

I can wait.

Really/So you oppose Trump taking taxpayer money and having the government pick winners and losers across a bunch of industries in a way that parallels socialism/Crony Capitalism?

i can wait while you show us some threads where you started a thread about it.

Yes but that is Trump and WH lies, as Trump tries to tie getting his Ballroom paid for by PRETENDING it is part of the over security requirements, when it is not. And the Judge NEVER disallowed any progress on the 'security aspects of the underground structure'. How do we know that? Trump and his WH admitted it prior.

So there is no reason that Trump cannot submit to Congress the APPROPRIATE costs for the under ground secure bunker while also submitting to the law and allowing the process for the above ground structure (ballroom) to go thru Congress, as the law demands.

Judge halts Trump’s ballroom construction, permits bunker work to proceed​

...“The exception for underground national security facilities does not include the proposed ballroom because Defendants themselves distinguished between below-ground and above-ground construction, stating that ‘the below-surface work is driven by national security concerns independent of the above-grade construction,'” ...

Leon said that the administration does not “explain why the proposed 90,000-square-foot ballroom — the source of the National Trust’s claimed injury and likely unauthorized by statue — is required for security purposes now.”...

The judge clarified that the defendants may “cover and secure the below-ground construction while litigation proceeds.”...

Yes but......

If you want any sort of credibility, which seems doubtful, you can stop calling everyone who disagrees with you "marxists." There are no such things anymore. We are all capitalist-socialists living in a capitalist-socialist country.

Well, I'm sure some of them in TD's mind are Maoists, Anarchists, and assorted Socialists...

He'd be doing what Democrats had done and wanted to do for decades. They'd no doubt be pleased with this. And, yes, I oppose doing this almost entirely. As with almost everything, there are exceptions.

We objected to him destroying the WH for another vanity project. Magas never even uttered the word "ballroom" before trump told them we needed one. With his ballroom, that cheesy outdoor-restaurant patio, and an overload of gilding, he wants to remake a historical site into Mar-a-Lago. And all the maga sycophants bow and scrape and say "yes sir, whatever you want, sir."

Wait, I thought Mar-a-Lago was worth like $1 million. A judge and the state attorney general in New York said so...
