Why couldn't they just build a standalone ballroom on the property? Why do the desires of billionaires literally trump (pun intended) historic preservation and the integrity of one of the most prominent structures in DC? [/quote]

Because he loves to piss people off and show how he doesn’t follow the rules and no one enforces them on him. It’s a giant middle finger to the US and it makes him feel powerful. [/quote]

Exactly! He also thinks he has good taste…the BEST taste…[/quote]
