Offering to pay for the ballroom himself, President Trump’s vision is for an opulent space big enough for large gatherings. Currently, major events are held in tents on the lawn.

While Trump’s ballroom will be a lasting contribution to the historic home, other Presidents have also influenced the national mansion.

Bill Clinton – Left kind of an icky feeling in people visiting the Oval Office.

Barrack Obama – A basketball hoop above the garage door.

Joe Biden – A walk-in bathtub.

Richard Nixon – Small holes in the wall where microphones were hidden.

Jimmy Carter – A feeling of malaise that still oozes from the walls.

Gerald Ford – The only modern President that left no mark on anything.

Meridian-street.com also polled presidential hopefuls about what they would add to the White House.

J. D. Vance – “A small room where I can meet personally with visiting dictators for one last time.”

Kamala Harris – “A coconut tree to remind people that I just didn’t fall from one.”

Tim Walz – A manly den where he can keep his hunting things, drink beer but not Bud Light, watch sportsy stuff, and do manly man things.

Gavin Newsom – A French Laundry restaurant in case there is another COVID panic and he gets an urge for fancy food.

Hillary Clinton – An extra bathroom where she can keep the servers for her own private email system, and an emergency kit with a hammer and BleachBit.

A.O.C. – A shelf where the Representative can keep the two books that made her the woman she is today; The Communist Manifesto and Bartending For Dummies.
