President Trump has reportedly authorized the demolition of the East Wing of the White House as part of an ambitious $250 million renovation plan which has now upgraded to $300 million. The project is said to include the construction of a grand ballroom for official events and an upgraded underground bunker designed for enhanced presidential security.
Heavy machinery was spotted on-site earlier this week as workers began clearing the historic section. The move has sparked a mix of shock and criticism, with some questioning the destruction of part of the nation’s most iconic residence.
Sources close to the project claim Trump wants the new additions completed before the end of his term, calling it “a legacy upgrade.” The White House has yet to confirm the full scope or timeline of the renovations but as of now the whole East Wing has been demolished.
