There are so many examples of how broken the leftist media is about Donald Trump that it's hard to pick a favorite. But the new East Wing of the White House might be one of the best we've ever seen. When demolition and construction began on the new grand ballroom, everyone in the legacy media absolutely lost their minds ... for an entire MONTH! The New York Times actually ran an obituary -- yes, an obituary -- for the building. And, of course, it signaled the 'end of our democracy.'
In case you thought that they're over it, though, rest assured that they are not. The NYT is still frothing at the mouth because Trump is building a ballroom -- something that not only benefits him, but every administration that comes after him. And doing it without charging the taxpayers a penny.
How DARE he!
Yesterday, the Times issued a desperate cry for professional help in the form of 'an architectural look' at the planned ballroom, shared courtesy of The Bulwark's Sam Stein. They even marked up one architectural drawing with handy annotations proving that the worms have finally eaten the last of their brains.

First of all, someone should probably tell Stein, who allegedly is a professional writer, that 'nowhere' is one word, not two.
More importantly, however ... WTAF? Obsessed much, New York Times?
The entire article is behind a paywall, but we really don't need to read it to get the point. In this case, a picture says 1,000 words -- all of them indicating that Stein and the NYT have gone completely batpoop insane.
You people need to get a life.

They need to get a straitjacket and a padded room is what they need to get.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt noticed the crazy.
The New York Times had three random people who have “studied fine arts,” “long written about urban planning,” and never built anything to write an article criticizing the new White House ballroom.

President Trump and his lead architect have built world-class buildings around… https://t.co/qAl2gk6hDA pic.twitter.com/vRH9U6mes0
... the world, and they are ensuring the People’s House finally has a beautiful ballroom that’s been needed for decades — at no expense to the taxpayer.
You know how people often say that if Trump came out in favor of oxygen, the media would stop breathing?
It's not an exaggeration. This image and article prove it.

Ah, yes. About those annotations on the drawing.
Someone should have told the 'fine arts student' and 'urban planner' who wrote the article that this isn't just any ballroom. It is a ballroom that hosts people (including one Bad Orange Man) who are assassination targets.
Thanks for providing just how retarded the NYT has become.

- They were down to complaining about "path symmetry," while ignoring that their other complaints have a very necessary component to them.
- Given the left's murder attempts on the President, as a reminder. pic.twitter.com/RHf05zlbi2
Needless to say, none of the article's authors -- let alone NYT editors -- reached out to the White House to get these very sensible and simple explanations.

Those poor birds. Don't make them suffer like that.
Of course, many users couldn't help notice that while the Times is obsessed with Trump's ballroom, they have had very little to say about the hideous Vogon spaceship that is currently blighting the Chicago skyline.

And repulsively asymmetrical, since the Times is so concerned with symmetry all of a sudden.

No, no, no. That building is obviously (D)ifferent.
Not to mention at least $500 million over budget.
The New York Times is right. Obama should have done the ballroom. pic.twitter.com/UfglkxbqkZ

Gross. We don't even want to think about that possibility. Let Chicago have that affront to the senses.
And then there is this one in New York City.
Unneccessarily BIG.

Also, entirely useless. Someone should raze that one to the ground.

HAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA.
We can only hope that, someday, the Navy commissions the USS Donald James Trump aircraft carrier.
The media's heads might literally explode.

I love how the media continues to find ways to attack the beautiful structures the president is building when government buildings like this have existed in DC for decades. https://t.co/fWID7hTjw0 pic.twitter.com/Mvz5DNhKWS

Most modern buildings in DC are atrocious. The East Wing Ballroom is a welcome return to more classical architecture.

Could you please also take an architectural look at the vinyl tent the White House currently hosts dignitaries and world leaders in? Just for comparison's sake? pic.twitter.com/py3VuyHvin
— The Thinkalorian (@TheRewster) March 29, 2026
That tent seems like it's a security nightmare for the Secret Service. They're probably looking forward to some solid marble walls (and an 'unnecessarily big,' unsloped rooftop on which to place snipers).
The following tweet summed up the media's insane bitterness quite well:
It just kills you guys that Donald Trump was able to fulfill this need without touching taxpayer money
— Snarknado ⚓️ 🇺🇸 (@ZannSuz) March 29, 2026
For decades the White House has been throwing State events under giant tents with porta potties like it’s a county fair.
Real classy. World leaders flown in to sip champagne…
... next to a folding restroom trailer. Peak superpower energy.
Now there is finally going to be a proper ballroom funded by private donors, built to actually match the architectural dignity of the Capitol and you’re spiraling over… windows, staircases and restrooms?
Fake outrage over whether a window is decorative. Melting down about staircases being too grand. Crying because a door leads to a restroom like that’s some scandal instead of basic planning.
You ignored the embarrassment for decades but suddenly you’re architectural experts because the solution showed up and you hate who delivered it.
This isn’t about windows or stairs. It’s about the fact Trump is fixing something that made the country look second rate and you can’t stand it.
Very well said, and correct on all counts.
We still kind of prefer the more direct explanation, though:
The legacy media belong in a lunatic asylum.
