President Trump on Tuesday eviscerated a reporter, calling her a “dumb person” after she tried to press him on the cost of the White House ballroom.
“We have a ballroom that’s under budget. It’s going up right here. I doubled the size of it because we obviously need that,” Trump told reporters before a reporter interrupted.
“The price has doubled,” the reporter shouted before Trump went nuclear.
Trump fired back, “I doubled the size of it, you dumb person. I doubled the size. You are not a smart person.”
“Right over here, and based on a lot of things that have happened over the last year, we doubled the size of the ballroom. So, we’re going to have a ballroom that’s appropriate for the White House,” Trump continued to reporters.
“We doubled the size. The ballroom now is ahead of schedule, and it’s a little bit under budget depending on the finishes that we use.”
WATCH:
Trump’s privately funded construction of the White House Ballroom has faced massive pushback and lawfare from the left, claiming that the President lacks congressional approval to break ground on the White House.
Despite repeated attempts by leftist groups and District Court judges, higher courts have allowed the President to proceed with the project, which includes an underground bunker.
