Trump BLINDSIDED by BALLROOM Construction LAWSUIT - Legal AF



The National Trust for Historic Preservation has finally gotten around, better late than never, to try to put a stop to the further construction of Trump's golden ballroom, arguing that it is illegal, unconstitutional, done without required Congressional approval and should be halted ASAP.

Michael Popok reports on why the Trust filed late and the impact on the case. - 12/14/2025.

I guess the courts are going to have to tell him that he doesn't own all government properties just because he was elected President. Those sites belong to all of us!

It is NOT his personal house, he is only in residence for four years like any other POTUS in history since John Adams!!!
