Trump in July: Ballroom construction will not touch the East Wing
When the White House first released the plans for the ballroom on July 31, Trump told reporters that the 90,000-square-foot addition would be “built over on the east side and it will be beautiful.”
“It’ll have views of the Washington Monument. It won’t interfere with the current building,” he said. “It’ll be near it but not touching it and pay total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of.”
Trump Is Wasting No Time in Tearing Down the East Wing
As roaring machinery tore down one side of the White House, President Trump acknowledged on Wednesday that he was having the entire East Wing demolished to make way for his 90,000-square-foot ballroom, a striking expansion of a project that is remaking the profile of one of the nation’s most iconic buildings.
Mr. Trump was unsentimental as news of the demolition spread. “It was never thought of as being much,” he said of the East Wing, which was home to the first lady’s office and spaces used for ceremonial purposes. “It was a very small building.”
From July of 2025 to October of 2025 was all it took for this lie to be revealed.
The East Wing went from being a place where Trump said, “I’m the biggest fan of” it to “It was never thought of as being much.”
Just one more example of his many tens of thousands of lies. Again.
Solid proof of why he can’t be trusted. Again.
Clear substance that nothing matters to him, not even what he said before. Again.

According to recent estimates, Trump has lied over 50,000 times in the last decade. Only morons still believe anything he says.

He says what sounds good to him and his audience at that moment in time. Think about it.
