The White House is a Dump Because A Black Family Lived There.

68. Trying To Promote His Wealth

I think Trump was actually trying to promote his wealth. He was trying to say that he is so wealthy that and has such nice homes that the White House is a dump to him. Can you imagine how wealthy someone would have to be in order to view the White House as a dump?

Throughout his adult life, Trump has been trying to convince people he is extremely wealthy. Either right before he was elected, or shortly after, Trump was making suggestions that he might keep his personal plane because he viewed it has far better than Air Force One. Many people knew that in truth Trump's plane was no match for Air Force one; however, some in the media indulged Trump and questioned whether Trump's private plane was better than Air Force One. There was actually a news segment, on CBS This Morning, that started by questioning whether Trump would be taking a step down by giving up his plane in order to ride on Air Force One. During the segment it was reported that Air Force One was bigger, could carry more people, and was more technologically advanced than Trump's private plane.

I think the dump comment was another attempt by Trump to promote the idea that he is very wealthy. I think he was also trying pretend that his is making a major sacrifice by being President. He is trying to claim that he gave up a massive salary and multiple palatial mansions all for the good of the American people.
