Trump II's ballroom cost $200 million in July 2025 and the project was completely funded by private donors. It's now $600 million with the U.S. taxpayer picking up $300 million.
Trump II can flat out spend money. His signature project rose 200%. How much is cost inflation vs. egotistical machinations?
TechGods and private equity underwriters (PEU) hate paying taxes. Apparently, they also have a limit on donations. I expect someday they will prefer predictable taxation vs. regular fundraising phone calls from the White House for pet project after pet project.
