Is this a bad dream?
The Supreme Court has become a criminal organization that allows Trump to trample on existing laws and the Constitution without recourse.
In a 5-4 decision the hard right wing of the court is allowing Trump's ballroom construction to continue. Chief Justice Roberts joined the liberal wing in dissenting while making this statement, "That construction is likely unlawful."
If that's the case, why is Trump getting away with his vanity project? By now it's apparent to most Americans - the hard right wing of the court has turned Trump loose to do whatever his black heart desires. As a malicious narcissist making over Washington DC into his personal vanity legacy Trump is living out his wet dreams.
If the construction continues unimpeded it's slated to be complete in August 2028, according to court documents. Come November - which just happens to be the midterms the framework of the building is expected to be finished.
Supposedly the whole project is being privately funded according to Trump. We already know that's bullshit. Trump's minions have been plucking money out of various agencies (funded by taxpayers) to meet the rising costs.
The last laughable guess that it will take $400 million to complete the ballroom is already being challenged as insiders suggest it'll end up being $600 to $800 million. Possibly a billion dollars.
The lawsuit to stop construction will return to the lower courts, but documents say that key portions of the project could be complete within months - a quick timeline compared with a typical legal case.
The ballroom never had the mandatory congressional approval (hence Robert's remark) but the Trump regime has plowed forward ignoring court decisions to halt until fully adjudicated.
The irony is Trump won't be in office upon completion of his pet project. I suspect a Democrat will be elected president in 2028. I also think that Congress will be in Democratic hands. Based upon those assumptions the new president may declare the ballroom The Stephen Colbert Media Arts Center.
If Trump is even alive then, the first Master of Ceremonies, Jimmy Kimmell, would probably invite him along with Biden and Obama. The three could sit together in the front row.
As it Stands, even if Trump slaps his name on the front of the ballroom, I doubt it will stay there in a Democratic administration.
