True. As I said, it was structural then. Now it is like a constantly refurbished B-52. Indeed, during Dubya's administration some of my former colleagues were involved in a massive refurbishing of the media room. Spent a lot of money on that I can tell you.Well, as a student of history you are then aware that Bess Truman and Harry Truman spent a lot of time and money refurbishing the WH because the place was a shambles, according to them. So this isn't unprecedented. However, the problem in 1947 was structural and I think President Trump is just doing his "can't control my id" routine on this. I don't support him trashing the WH at all, just saying it's sort of happened before.As a student of history, this just sickens me to the core.
Yeah, but when Truman fixed the White House... it WAS in shambles. The floors were falling in.
IMAGINE -- for a minute. Just imagine if the previous president had uttered such a thing. The right wing would have lost their shit as if the world were ending. Imagine their original criminal hero Reagan saying "the White House is a dump".
Cons you have crossed over into hypocrisy of such a scale that it has never been explored before.

I do. Did the President say on C-SPAN that he didn't mean the WH was a dump, just the people? Which people, I wonder? His cabinet? His staff?View attachment 141629He is talking about the people ,not the White House itself .
Once again press guessed at what he meant and gets it wrong.
I'm not the one with fingers in ears.
Try watching c-span.

And yet.....when obama compared the White House to a prison.....where was the outrage....? Since he was a Black President, and compared the White House to a prison?
Barack Obama reveals the worst thing about being the most powerful man in the world
The former president isn’t the only Obama to have described the White House as a prison. Michelle Obama hit the headlines for saying that living in the White House has prison-like qualities
Before you get yourself all outraged over this, read some history. This is a common complaint of presidents.IMAGINE -- for a minute. Just imagine if the previous president had uttered such a thing.

Peach, I don't know your stances well enough to know what TV stations you watch. I don't remember criticizing you for watching FOX before; I used to watch FOX sometimes, when I got that channel, but the meme wasn't as much about Fox, to me, as the rest of it. This isn't about Fox.I do. Did the President say on C-SPAN that he didn't mean the WH was a dump, just the people? Which people, I wonder? His cabinet?

No
I said that because you always accuse me of only being a fox news watcher. Which is not true at all.
Which by the way has just as much false info as CNN & MSNBC
Read the article.
It puts it into perspective.
Why do you want to know which people?
The corruption is in both parties.
D.C. is full of corruption.
That's why the people voted for him, he has no ties to the corrupted lobbyists.
So..that's the current excuse.‘That White House is a real dump’: Trump openly trashes official residence while visiting his golf course
"Donald Trump explains away his frequent visits to his own golf courses by belittling the residence of every U.S. president since 1800, telling attendees at his Bedminster Golf Club that the “White House is a real dump.”
Golf.com reports that during a recent visit to his New Jersey golf club (which Trump has visited four times since his inauguration), the president told fellow members the reason why he frequents his own properties.
“That White House is a real dump,” he said."
‘That White House is a real dump’: Trump openly trashes official residence while visiting his golf course
Wow. Such respect for the sublime history of that important American Institution.
<smh>
Imagine for one earthly second if Obama had ever said anything like that.
Just sickening the way this man trashes nearly every one and everything he comes in contact with.
Once again, liberals prove that despite our best efforts, many reach adulthood without the ability to read the language. From your link:
"As for the president’s golfing abilities, while some reports indicated Trump has an uncanny ability to make a hole in one, the people who’ve played with him over the years told golf.com the president “doesn’t play a round of golf so much as narrate it, his commentary peppered with hyperbole”"
There's another excuse.Sounds like a democrat whopper.

It is government housing....and it was built, again, in 1817.......of course it is a dump...just because it has a lot of history doesn't mean it isn't a dump......

It's been remodeled several times including when it was basically gutted in 1948-1952.

Why isn't this in the 'Humor' forum?That's why the people voted for him, he has no ties to the corrupted lobbyists.
He is talking about the people not the WH.
“This is my real group,” he reportedly told a group of members, while inviting them to stop by his interviews the following day. “You are the special people. I see all of you. I recognize, like, 100% of you, just about.”
