President Donald Trump said he is hard at work on something the country “desperately” needs.
But not everyone agrees with his urgency on this one.
“I’m building something right now in the White House, one of the greatest ballrooms, so desperately needed, anywhere in the world,” he said during a Fox Business interview with Larry Kudlow that aired on Tuesday.
Kudlow had asked the president about Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, who Trump has been feuding with over interest rates. Trump complained about the ballooning cost of a renovation of the Fed’s office buildings under Powell’s watch.
That’s when Trump shifted to the massive ballroom he is having built on the grounds of the White House, bragging that he was getting it done for “a fraction of what this guy’s doing.”
