A Hysterical Lindsey Graham To Introduce Bill To Force Taxpayers To Spend $400 Million On Trump Ballroom
Remember earlier today when Trump's ballroom was all privately funded? Well, that is out the window as Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) wants taxpayers to spend $400 million on a ballroom.
Republicans have completely lost their minds and are claiming that the only way to keep Donald Trump safe is to give him the money from taxpayers for a ballroom.

This means that the same party that told millions of people that their health insurance premiums were going up because the government was broke, and who also told people who need food assistance that they were out of luck because the government can’t afford to help needy seniors, kids, and persons with disabilities, has sprung into action and found $400 million to spend on a ballroom.
Watch Sarah debunk the White House’s claims about dangerous Democratic rhetoric:
Sen. Lindsey Graham announced at a press conference that he will be proposing legislation to bill the taxpayers $400 million for Trump’s ballroom.
Graham said:
We're gonna introduce legislation that would authorize $400 million to be spent to secure the to build the presidential ballroom underneath. There will be a lot of military stuff. There'll be a Secret Service annex, and we've paid for it by offsetting it with custom fees, but the estimate is 332 million.
We're gonna do 400 million 'cause I think it's probably gonna take more. Private donations can be used, but I think they should be used for buying China and stuff like that. Underneath this ballroom will be infrastructure that is national security centric.
The ballroom itself will avoid the dilemma of having to leave the White House grounds with future presidents and this presidents to go downtown and a place this less secure.
President Trump said to me. This morning, excuse me, yesterday. We need the ballroom, not just for me, but for future presidents. He literally could have left his bedroom, walked out the back of the white House, and been at the ballroom. That's what needs to happen when you have a thousand or 2000 people gathered, uh, in today's environment. And the sooner we get the ballroom built, the more hardened it is, the better for the country. So I hope and pray that most people in the Senate after Saturday night will support this bill.
