  1. Trump wants to build a ballroom just like he has at Mar-a-Lago. What the actual fuck.

  2. fuck trump, the short-fingered vulgarian

    fuck maga and the lazy non-voting americans

    i know it has been said a thousand times but i hope his supporters get fucked so bad

    this action of paving over the rose garden is too much right on the nose

    i want to go to the timeline where Gore won and every American home has solar and America is energy independent and we have universal heathcare

  3. Classless trash administration is going to leave the Whitehouse looking like a 70s casino.

  8. HEs trying to convert it into mar-a-lago. He thinks he is going to become a dictator and wants the white house to be turned into his private residence.

  9. Sigh, add it to the pile of atrocities, file it under “are we upset yet?”

  12. I’m not particularly patriotic, or a US history conservationist by any means but this enrages me. It’s purely to be spiteful to those that came before him.

    I’m hoping that those plants are being rehomed but I’m guessing he’s having them throw them straight in the trash. A damn shame.

  13. >”Trump previously said he would pave over the Rose Garden because the grass is always wet, and it’s an inconvenience for women in high heels.”

    What a dumbass excuse to do this

  14. I hope whoever is President next restores it.

    It wouldn’t only be right to do so and return our history, but a symbol of slowly dismantling everything MAGA has ever stood for or been. We will erase MAGA from our nations culture, it will be nothing more than a story in the history books, a shame, like how Germany views the 1930s. 

  15. Let me guess, contracted to the highest bidder and Trump gets a cut. Probably an 10 year contract so when Trump is out they’ll be contractually obligated to do the work if they want to put it back how it was.

  17. Why in the actual fuck would you pave the Rose Garden?

  18. That’s what dictators do, they concrete everything. Make everything sterile and cold like their hearts.

  19. Seems like the actions of someone who doesn’t want to leave the white hous3

  20. Destroy something beautiful to make something soulless. What a perfect metaphor for this administration

  21. >Since his return to the White House, Trump has [transformed the Oval Office](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-oval-office-gold-2045930), making some of the most significant changes to the room’s appearance in modern presidential history. There have been gold medallions, gold vermeil figurines, gold eagles and gilded Rococo mirrors added.

    >It has also been reported that Trump wishes to build a ballroom in the White House, similar to the one he has at his Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago.

    Grotesque.

  23. It’s him just giving the United States the finger in another destructive way.

  24. Over a century of being a rose garden but he just has to destroy it. There is no bottom to his pettiness.

  26. I hope the next president erases everything that shows Trump was ever in the White House. Replant the garden, get rid of the gold nonsense, move his disgusting portrait to a warehouse (maybe it will get lost).

  27. He’s paving over a rose garden because (checks notes) the grass is always wet, and it’s an inconvenience for women in high heels.

    Excuse me while I stare blankly into space in utter disbelief.

  29. This seems pretty symbolic of what he wants to do with our national parks too

  31. I’ve never been there and will likely never go there but I feel he’s just stolen something I value as an American.

  32. That rose garden was over 100 years old, established in 1913. Symbolic of what Trump is doing to America.

  33. Also, he will not care about a nuclear war or the fallout bc the world begins and ends with him. He doesn’t care about planting trees of which he will never see grow. He’s a piece of shit and everyone who follows or likes him is also. He’s destroyed this nations reputation, integrity, infrastructure, structure, and safety. The rose garden is just yet another small beautiful tradition that is now gone to satisfy the whims of an egotistical tyrant. Fuck us all.

  34. This is such a symbolic reference to trump’s entire presidency. Something great that’s been there for ages getting torn down for no good reason. Want to put it back? Awesome, all the care and attention that’s been there for decades has been undone, and will have to be completely restarted from scratch.

    I literally check the news every day hoping to read one headline.

  35. 😱 the WH rose garden is iconic. This is a trash move. It’s like he is trying to erase the history and grandeur of the space if it isn’t his idea first

  36. Reminds me of Saruman and the orcs, cutting down the forest. Evil men really hate things that grow.
