Trump made the point that the ballroom which is used now......

only holds 109 people and the new ballroom will hold many more people.

It’s simply makes no sense to put more people in harms way!

Just add something disguised as cornbread, a giant carrot, and a chunk of microwaved, frozen turkey.

it's the executive suites that will sit atop the ballroom where the action will take place.
