What to know about James McCrery, Trump's White House architect.....

[reACTIONary]

.......And what Peter Eisenman, his former mentor, thinks of his ballroom plan



Eisenman ... called McCrery’s ballroom design “bonkers” before adding, “putting a portico at the end of a long facade and not in the center is what one might say is untutored.”

2. McCrery thinks God is guiding his drawings. But the ballroom will be where the rich come to kiss Trump's ring.

Like all MAGAt nutjobs, McCrery thinks Trump is heaven sent. Which justifies Trump doing whatever he wants, namely fleecing America.

From the article:

If the president succeeds in getting the ballroom built before he leaves office, as he’s said he intends to, the galas held there won’t be about national unity or cultural excellence, and the tickets for them, in ways literal and otherwise, won’t be free. It will be a place to kiss the ring, to bend the knee, and to pay for the privilege. What the design suggests is not so much a bloated classicism or an effort to turn Washington into Mar-a-Lago north, although it is both of those things, as a blueprint for making concrete the notion that the White House has turned in some fundamental sense into a retail outlet, a place where access and influence are nakedly bought and sold.
