For days, Corporate Media has been freaking about the ballroom President Trump is adding to the White House complex. Today, they moved onto trees being removed. Yes, this is the new freak out.
Satellite images show President Trump's project to build a grand ballroom has appeared to take down at least six trees on the White House grounds — including two historic magnolia trees commemorating Presidents Warren G. Harding and Franklin D. Roosevelt. https://t.co/E9Epovw4wI pic.twitter.com/DNEubFKMzN

Apparently, this is all they got and it's absolutely not about the trees.
This is really all you got, huh?

I absolutely do not care. https://t.co/StsMC5chxk
They sure didn't care about historical monuments being torn down. They praised that behavior. A statue of Thomas Jefferson that has resided in New York City Hall since 1833 was removed Monday following a unanimous vote by the city's Public Design Commission over the Founding Father's slave-owner past. Author Douglas Murray slammed the decision on "Fox & Friends" Wednesday and warned of the left's mission to "rewrite the American story."
Oh no, not trees!

I guess if the construction of a ballroom is dominating the news cycle and is all we have to complain about, things in the US are quite good.

Wait until you guys get a load of what Truman did.

That would send them to orbit.
I do think the wisest trick Trump pulls continuously with the media is to kick up these sorts of controversies, leading to outraged headlines about something that absolutely does not matter to most Americans, revealing so many outlets and journalists to be carnival barkers. https://t.co/8vkMWmNiGj

Trump knows exactly how to play them.

Scores of people who up until today had no idea who Warren G Harding was are now doubtless shedding bitter tears over the destruction of his commemorative tree. To them I say:

I've been told that Magnolia makes great firewood.

Probably need to let it dry out, but it should be ready for fireplaces inside the White House this time next year. https://t.co/zQD4RYPOO4
