Bill Maher and John Fetterman have defended the construction of the White House ballroom, blasting criticism as “so stupid”.
In spite of legal battles, construction is underway on Donald Trump’s controversial project, which could cost taxpayers as much as $1billion.
Speaking on the Club Random podcast on Monday (11 May), the Democrat senator said the divisive reaction to the project is a result of Trump Derangement Syndrome. “If he came out [in favor] for ice cream and lazy Sundays, we would f****** hate it,” Mr Fetterman said.
Mr Maher added: “The money is like one angstrom unit of a percentage point of what our budget is. So it doesn’t matter anyway.”
