1. And what do those rich people expect to get for their money?

They're not buying a ballroom because they want or need one.

2. Bribery is in the constitution as a must prosecute impeachable offense

I’m tired of these bribes being called “donations”

[Bettie]

4. Didn't the SCOTUS recently say

that "gratuities" are allowed? So, they do what their owners tell them to do, then afterward, they get a big pile of cash!

They're tips if they get them afterward, "bribes" if they get them before the vote.

Apparently, open corruption is now not only legal, but encouraged...at least for those with an "R" after their name.

9. They are in some kind of contest to see who can make the most illegal money

3. But according to what Trump also said, this is a secret military project

See: https://democraticunderground.com/100221127137

So is he saying that "rich people" are funding a secret military project under the east wing of the White House?

5. As if it wasnt already public knowledge that

there was/is a bunker under where the east wing was.

6. The White House still belongs to the people and we don't want your ugly-ass ballroom near it. Take your

bribes and build it at your Florida dump.

7. Are they building? Are walls up? Water and electric in?

8. It's the PEOPLE'S HOUSE. not Buckingham Palace.

If any other president had done this there would be an impeachment, however , no other president would have done this.
