Show me a photo of one of Trump's baubles, then put a side-by-side photo of something from Home Depot that looks identical, and the conclusion I'm going to draw is "that came from Home Depot."

And the "sends a bill" thing...

...the other part of this is that we're supposed to think this, and the marble make-over of the Lincoln bathroom, ISN'T coming right out of the taxpayers' pockets.

I'm in the group of people who hopes "the ballroom" never gets built. And I know all of the accounting will be hidden from the American people. That doesn't mean that Trump's boast about "paying for it himself" along with "patriot" donors is true. If he chips in ONE DOLLAR, he makes his claim about "I paid for part of it" true.
