Jacqueline Kennedy’s memorial garden to JFK was also completely destroyed today.

It was dedicated during the LBJ administration and was just south of the East Wing’s walkway.

Trump had it bulldozed for his unwanted ballroom.

From Goggle:

No, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Rose Garden was not paved over; however, the other garden named after her, the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden (also known as the East Garden), was demolished to make way for a new ballroom in October 2025. The White House Rose Garden, which Jacqueline Kennedy redesigned in the 1960s, had its lawn replaced with stone tiles as part of a renovation in 2025, not paved over, but the demolition of the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden is a separate, recent event.

Jacqueline Kennedy Garden:
This garden, located south of the East Colonnade, was demolished in October 2025 to be replaced by a ballroom.

White House Rose Garden:
The main Rose Garden, which Jacqueline Kennedy had redesigned with horticulturist Bunny Mellon, had its central lawn area replaced with stone tiles in 2025 as part of a renovation. The name and the surrounding rose bushes were kept.

1. The whole thing makes me sick...damn t-rump to Hell...

2. This seems to be touching a major nerve with people, the unilateral, surprise, wanton destruction

Our priceless national heritage destroyed by a mentally ill bozo bent on revenge against his enemies. People are woking up to the reality that he could lay waste to a lot more than a wing and a garden- all bets are off, no guardrails, it’s ALL in play. He could tear down anything he hates.

3. Have any Rethugs denounced this?

They just collectively shrug while precious history is plowed under?

4. Slobby sure is jealous of the Kennedys, isn't he?

5. Both his Russian ballroom and the Predator Patio need to be ripped out, root and stem

Once we get it back, the entire place needs to be purged and fumigated to remove every last trace of that freak.
