James McCrery II, the project’s original architect—replaced in December by architect Shalom Baranes—reportedly raised serious concerns that the completed 90,000-square-foot ballroom would overshadow the 55,000-square-foot White House.
During the January planning commission meeting, Baranes told the panel, “I did mention the potential for a future addition, a one-story addition to the West Wing." He said it would “reinstate symmetry along the central pavilion of the White House.”
During an interview with The New York Times, Trump said he wants to build a second level on top of the colonnade that connects the West Wing to the White House residence. He said he's calling the project the "Upper West Wing" and that it's currently under design.

That is really stupid. You make the plans in detail before you start the work. You do not start construction without an organized plan detailing costs, workers and time schedules. I suspect Trump thought there would be important people against the gold ballroom. However ,if he tears down a big piece of the White House, it's too late to stop him.
He tore a chunk of the White House down without viable drawings or plans? You are OK with that.New drawings are out.....nothing said about how much this will cost or how locked in funding is or the schedule. .

I have talked about this several times....Trump pulled this same stunt with Trump Tower and later extensively bragged about it....tearing stuff down before opposition has a chance to gather and oppose him.
It is wrong.
If you wanted to understand how Trump operates you would learn The GodFather.
There is quite literally no one in The Godfather that is as stupid as trump.
He defeated the Swamp twice in being named President.
You still don't get it, trump is a swamp unto himself. he is now going to charge the government for everything he forces the government to name after himself.
The reason trump and his thugs keep falling is that they're all morons.Two months later, it increasingly seems that such discussion was a wasted effort, as the chance this ballroom will actually be built is rapidly disappearing. Perhaps it could have if Trump had delegated the management of the project to someone competent, but that’s not what he did. Instead, the famously lazy and disorganized president decided to blow off his actual governance duties in favor of micromanaging a construction project he is incapable of handling. Finishing the ballroom in the next three years would be difficult for anyone, but it’s quickly becoming clear it will be nearly impossible for the famed real estate tycoon to pull it off.
The whole thing is a too-perfect symbol of Trump’s second administration: They are very good at breaking things, but they don’t know how to create anything of value.
