Is Trump the hardest working President in history? Quite possibly. He even has time to inspect contractor work at the White House.
The President said he noticed damage done to the limestone in the Rose Garden, which is undergoing renovation, and proceeded to conduct an investigation.
“I happened to notice a huge gash in the limestone that extended more than 25 yards long. It was deep and nasty!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
? BREAKING: President Trump says the White House security cameras have CAUGHT workers severely MESSING UP the Rose Garden renovations, and the contractor who did it will never be allowed to work on the WH again.

He continued, “I started yelling, ‘Who did this, and I want to find out now!’ — And I didn’t say this in a nice manner.”
“I wondered, “Was it vandalism or, was it stupidity?” The President further noted.
He then explained that security camera captured the moment the damage was done.
“Lo and behold, because of the fact that we’ve installed the finest security equipment anywhere, they brought back the stupid people, with their boss watching (in sunglasses!)” Trump hilariously related.
“It was a subcontractor that was installing heavy landscaping on a steel cart that was broken and tilting badly, with it rubbing hard against the soft, beautiful stone,” he added.
“I love and respect great workers and contractors, but something like this should never happen,” Trump urged.
“Now, I’ll replace the stone, charge the contractor, and never let that contractor work at the White House again,” he vowed, adding “But, how great is the video equipment? We caught them, cold. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
for want of a properly loaded pallet jack and some masonite to protect the limestone, the contractor is done for. what a fucking idiot.

What stands out is Trump treats the White House like it’s the people’s house, not just a backdrop. He defends it with the same pride he built with.

Trump roasting lazy contractors is the best version of him.

Nobody handles incompetence like he does, like he sees it, calls it out, and crushes it.
Hilarious and refreshingly, literally, down to earth.

Sometimes, there is no different between 'stupidity' & 'vandalism'. The two go hand-in-hand.

Supposed to lay down 4’x8’ Masonite sheets taped end to end covering any soft stone while transporting loads.

Trump is overseeing a series of extensive renovations at The White House aimed at reshaping the iconic residence in his distinctive style.
Key projects include the construction of a massive 90,000-square-foot ballroom attached to the East Wing, which is set to begin in September and is projected to be completed well before the end of his term in 2029.
Additionally, the Oval Office has been updated with gold embellishments on the walls and ceiling trim, reflecting Trump’s preference for maximalist decor.
The Rose Garden has been transformed by replacing its lawn with a cement patio, altering the traditional outdoor space.
The planned $200 million ballroom will be funded by both President Trump and other private, unnamed donors. The White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has stated that the project will not use taxpayer money.
The Ballroom will eliminate the need for temporary tents on the South Lawn during state dinners and other major functions—tents that Trump has long criticized as “unsightly” and impractical during inclement weather.
The projects are being undertaken to leave a “distinctive imprint” on the White House, modernize outdated sections, and evoke the opulent aesthetic of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, according to sources familiar with the plans.
Trump has described the initiatives as the largest White House overhaul in over a century, driven by his background in construction and desire to enhance the property’s grandeur.
