Summary
President Donald Trump stated that it is “too late” to stop construction on a new ballroom at the White House, despite a lawsuit filed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Trump described the ballroom, which he claims is privately funded with a budget of $300 million, as a gift to the nation. He criticized the lawsuit for being filed after construction began. The ballroom is set to replace the current East Wing and accommodate approximately 650 guests while reflecting classical design elements of the White House.
