Well this is because Melania’s stiletto heels, and Donald’s shoe lifts/ duck shoes can’t navigate grass.

I’m surprised there isn’t a putting green.

Shameful

Didn’t Trump once call for people who desecrated the flag to be executed?

scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-...

If I live through all this, I will happily operate a jackhammer to help destroy and remove that monstrosity.

This was HER garden. Shame on the monsters 👹 who allowed this 🤬

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤬😢😢

I find that insulting. People will be stepping on the flag & the presidential seal when they're on that paved monstrosity. It is offensive. youtu.be/CW7UYuouC-w

Not stepping, defecating. I wonder who will be the first? This was all done for the congressional women, judges, and reporters, the “hose bags in heels” to make it easier for them to walk and not ruin their shoes. “Look what I did for you.” What a prince…

47 did it for himself so he could walk on a level surface.

Probably so he can use a golf cart

Trump will clean his dirty diapers down them

Those grates don't look particularly heel-friendly to me.

Young girls don't usually wear heels

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!!!

He’s a lout. 47’s brand is more akin to marking his territory, revealing his stain and the stench of new money acquired by grift and a lack of breeding and taste.

👏He's so right

Restoring it in ‘29!

Get him out of there before he does any more crass damage.

hes replacing the wh ...with his new palace ..

Why are the tacky white chairs and tables there?

because the tacky white patio wasn't enough

can't really call it a rose garden anymore-- Trump Parking Lot?

Wow! That presidential "rose garden" is awful! I suspect it foretells what is to be done to the US.

Soon: Trump rents White House Patio to Tesla: unsold cybertrucks begin filling empty spaces

So tacky.

Rose Garden ultimate plan ALMOST complete:

Bunker mentality.

Sterile and ugly. Like their souls.

Absolutely fugly. It’s a Trump signature look

One more step in the enshitification of America.

📌

Don’t forget Melania remodeled the rose garden in 2020. This time he paved over the remaining grass to turn it into a parking lot. Wonder how much he’s going to charge donors for Oval Office parking. Maybe he’ll add a drive through so his donors don’t even have to get out of their cars

It’s the crassness Ruin of a beautiful rose garden with many heritage roses! They have zero taste

Truly foul. Drumpf intends to murder every living thing & his maggat cultists are cheering him on.

It’s vandalism

Tacky pos just like Trump and his nasty family

Abomination Just like the P r e s I d e n t!

Everything Trump touches turns tacky.

He has no intention of leaving the White House in 2029.

Represents how badly he wants to rip green space & parks & anything family friendly from our entire country. This makes me cry.

Should have put his face on the drainage grates.

If I was the next president I would restore it to its previous state. I would also tear down the coming $200 million horror show of a Ballroom.

Either that or rename it the Trump/Epstein wing.

Once this regime falls, the ballroom could serve as a temporary medical ward and/or soup kitchen, given the state the nation will be in after his abuse.

Why is he doing this? And why is EVERY Republican supporting him? I will NEVER forget what is happening here. NEVER. He thinks HE is on a revenge tour? They are going to have to bury him on an island to keep all of us from urinating on his grave 👹🤬👹

Urination would be the least of potential damage. He’ll have to hide it at MAL. Anything else will NEVER survive.

Good example of “garbage in, garbage out.”

How much waste, fraud, and abuse is he creating trashing the Rose Garden, and building a 200 Million Ball Room? Someone ask the GOP Senators and Congress!!

The rose garden now looked like what I can only describe as nuclear winter

Gardens, in general, provide excellent drainage. Plus, that whole CO2 oxygen thing is also helpful.

so boorish and trashy to pave over that area. he is obliviated.

Be glad it wasn’t painted gold.

All a bit Soviet, innit?

It's hideous. At least this eyesore can be torn up and the rose garden rebuilt. America as a democracy will be more difficult to recover.

I read the rose garden was like 150 years old. Oh well.

Agree! Tear it all down in 3.5 years. They can use my tax dollars... and also tear down the monstrosity that will be built next to the White house starting in September... a 90,000 square foot eyesore built onto our "People's House", a 55,000 square foot National Historic Landmark.

This would be a fantastic issue to campaign on for the Dems. Also it looks like a heat sink in the spring, summer, and early autumn.

To quote Trump: "It's just weather". He simply cannot understand how concrete has any impact.

1970s Rose Garden

Metaphor for what he's doing to America, pave paradise and put up a parking lot--or a prison.

By the time Trump is done defacing the White House and the grounds it will have to be demolished and rebuilt from scratch. Someone definitely needs to get to the bottom of what kind of shady dealings he has going on behind the scenes with the ballroom. Something stinks to the high heavens there.

“He’s a builder”. Look at the vision required to create this masterpiece. A flat slab of concrete. Wow, absolutely stunning. It shows just how smart he is. What’s next? A giant manhole cover in place of the Washington Monument?

No. WH will be covered in gilt.

What a fucking gaudy disgrace

THIS is why 'OLD money' hates 'NEW money.'

Texasification of DC!

This is Trump trying to leave his mark on the place. He desperately wants a “Truman Balcony” of his own. Someone told him his “Trump Patio” will be ripped up so that’s why he’s building that tacky ballroom which Congress should have killed outright.

As ugly as he is

Okay, add this to the list --- When the fascists are defeated, in addition to prosecuting every last damn one of them, and barring them from ever holding office again, we're goddamn seizing Mar-a-Lago and turning it into a garbage dump, to repay Trump for the way he's desecrated the White House.

We can dream.🙄

A gender neutral homeless shelter, thrift store, and veggie farm would be better.

May it be so …

Somehow it was just a “peaceful walk” when January 6th-ers stormed our government. AND THEY WERE ALL PARDONED. Next Democrat needs to support MASSIVE MAJOR strikes. Those animals got away with MURDER.

Omg, gross. On top of his festering soul and black heart, we have to deal with his Liberace garishness and grotesquerie.

Spontaneous parties are often the most fun.

👍👏😂

I am so stealing this!

This is so he can drive his new bulletproof golf cart right up to the door. I hate this f****** timeline.

All to accommodate the lifts in his tiny shoes, I take it?

TREASON 24/7

Trump hates the flag. Unless he can fuck it. It's a love hate relationship

It’s just distraction and provocation. Smoke and mirrors. Don’t buy it. The garden can be restored but first he needs to leave office.

Ugly as sin but accurately reflects the lack of class, taste, soul of the GOP.

Make America Grate Again

Looks like the Hunger Games

“Brawndo has been in negotiations with White House officials for naming rights…”

Does it have Trumps initials?

This is Trump staking a claim with intent to never leave.

At least this is easily reversable and only costs dollars, not lives.

I mean, its what people want, right? Just barren wasteland of concrete over greenspaces. Between this and his ballroom design, t-a-c-k-y

Erasing and paving over history every day.

Why?

A man destroying the gardens and building a ballroom is not a man planning on leaving anytime soon

Everything Trump touches turns to shit.

Painful to look at.

We must demand to know where the money is coming from and that it be spent on the cancer research, snap, Medicare/Medicade, Vets services etc that they just cut in the budget bill because they claim there was no money!!! youtu.be/P8YBsrore5g?...

Another distraction from the fascism, and y'all fell for it.

Paved paradise.

Apologies if it’s already posted, but in fairness, he never promised us a rose garden. Also, he’s an ignorant, bigoted, narcissistic, misogynistic, pedophile, white supremacist, totalitarian, dictator wannabe profoundly lacking in ethics, morals, empathy, intellect, & integrity. Hard days comin’.

The American flag has no meaning anymore. Democrats before fight back and then redesign the flag

What the hell happens when the inevitable heat wave hits. This will be unusable. The only problem with the grass is that tarts in prossie heels won't be able to walk on it. On hang on, does that mean that women not plying their trade will be able to interface more?

Serious question, what right does the orange flop bag have to alter anything at the White House? It's not his property, it's ours.

The patio's complete? No above ground pool with bright yellow slide?

There's also no barbeque, turkey fryer, basketball hoop or patio furniture from Temu. It's far from complete.

I wish “loathe” were adequate enough for what I think about him. He is truly vile.

"They paved Paradise and made it a parking lot."

Forgive the misquote 🙃 youtu.be/ratQlft_G5c?...

Soooo ugly

It's going to be a great day when they tear out all that ugly concrete.

This looks awful. Looks like a parking lot.

It’s got Nuremberg vibe.

You think this is all may be because he got his shoes wet or dirty once, and he’s the most petty motherfucker on the planet?

Major renovations and changes to the White House should have to be proposed and approved by 2/3 of the Senate. People should have a voice in something like this, as limited as it may be.

He destroys everything he touches.

How depressing.

The only thing I can say is that if he spends all of his time working on remodeling the White House, that's less time he has to fuck up America with.

Poor taste is the least of it. This cheesy patio destroyed a precious piece of White House and American history. Grace, beauty and tradition. Gone. And it probably also poses a security hazard.

Angie’s Girl, you GET it!!! 💜

But... but... but... you can't possibly support Louboutin heels getting (gasp!) dirty by sinking into grass, George! Think of all the poor Trumpvangelical ladies! Plus, setting down Birkin bags on actual grass is the worst! The horror!

Jesus wept.

Who wants to sit on a huge concrete patio, especially with no umbrellas in the Washington DC heat and humidity? Trump is the anti-common sense President. www.housebeautiful.com/lifestyle/en...

Needs to be knocked down rather than fumigated after he has been evicted a second time!

there have been so many tragedies these past ten months that are too huge to really feel, way beyond my capacity to experience. Paving over the rose garden...while minor, and reversible, that's one that I can choke on.

ETTD

He’s washing America down the drain so the grates are fitting

That’s going to be unbearably hot waiting on concrete for the start of press conferences.

It all now looks like those grey cement apartment blocks from 70's Russia.

Cemetery?

That’s where the Epstein files are buried.

It's ugly

Terrible

Making Albert Speer Great Again.

So tacky

It really struck me how many comments took that as an amazing feat of design. And “patriotism”. Feels more like another juvenile prank someone like @StephenM foisted on us. Am anxious for Dems to take over and demolish all the destruction he has inflicted. Esp his $200 million Hitler “Volkshalle”

God, I hate him so much.

The true news of his demise, will begin the largest international party in world history!

Fuck that fucking fuck

Precisely

Yes, this!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9Y1...

Everything Trump touches turns to 💩! This is what happens when you put Trump trash and eurotrash in the WH

Putin’s wet dream

Add that and fumigating and removal of ALL his gilding to the expense once he's out, and hope for legislation forbidding anything like this ever again. It's OUR house, not his.

Sledgehammers exist, for exactly this purpose...

"Presidential seal."

Draining the swamp? Wish that it happened.

Hey, this is our fucking house ! trumpf is only a temporary renter! We dont give him permission to destroy our house. He needs to be evicted!

So painfully tacky. So completely on brand. So thoroughly demoralizing.

The DC Mar-a-Lago is coming along. Needs a putting green, gilded gold fountains and a golden TRUMP archway to complete the look.

The very latest in retro Soviet design.

Those are not American Flags covering the sewer. The grates are a panel of stripes and a panel of stars, alternating. That is not the American Flag, but close enough for an ignorant man who doesn’t care enough to know the difference.

What a dick !!

Pictures of Melania would’ve worked

Do you think it’s just in case he forgets where he is. Also, doesn’t Rose Garden imply there are roses, not just some featureless patio.

A metaphor.

In the time of climate peril Trump paves over nature.

Eventually it will look like this

Could we add “nursing home”?

Crematorium

Yeah. That’s the one.

Or this

That hideous, tacky hardscape is disgraceful.

It's like a tarmac.....

If Karma was real he would slip on ice or rain and break his neck. Come on winter!

He ripped up his wife’s garden?

Moron

😢😠

😭

And we thought Melancholia destroyed it the first time! She’s not around now to object. And the outcry from the public always falls on deaf, geriatric ears!

My first thought when I saw this, was the song "Big Yellow Taxi"

Bulldoze it the second the Republicans are booted from office.

Make the GOP felons (redundant, I know) tear it all down as part of their hard labor sentences.

In terrible taste as always, Trump trashes everything he touches.

It is so disgusting.

What is the purpose of this? Easier for Melania to walk on in those ridiculous spiked heels?

TBH it seems fitting.

One more way to erase history...

Also, the giant flagpole. It looks like something a MAGA crazy person would put next to a highway.

Trump is brain fucked and people just nod and smile.

Just imagine if a Democrat install sewer grates shaped like the American flag. Right wingers would lose their minds and accuse them of completely disrespecting the American flag.

Well the sewer grates are a representation what trump thinks of America

Horrid, tasteless man. How can we stop the ballroom?

Designed by Kim Jong Il?

Cold & sterile like the current inhabitants.

The drainage grates are required for when Putin and the 🇷🇺 strippers come to provide their kompromatted client some water sports.

What has happened to our rose garden is an analogy for what is happening to our Earth. 😕

Sewer grate. A perfect metaphor for the Trump United States.

There should be laws against temporary occupants making major changes to the property. This is horrendous.

I'm shocked he didn't use the image of his bitcoin in the corners instead of the seal. That would be more aligned with his interests. Regarding the mud, there were certain other better solutions that would have preserved the lawn and still make it walkable. Now it looks like a walmart parking lot

Desecration &destruction everywhere you look by this hideous 🍊Dicktator &his equally vacuous, tacky, "escort" wife & partner in crime...& it has only been 6mos‼️ God help America &the whole 🌏.😪 new follower. Please vet &follow back. Thank you.💙

Can’t wait til they fire up the jackhammers

American flag sewer grates..

nauseating

Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got till it's gone...

How appropriate, flags for drains as the USA is going down the drain.

Demo crews coming in 2029.

That’s fucking awful … 🤦‍♀️

The Whitehouse Rose Parking Lot.

President Trump, I promise you here and now, I will piss on your fucking grave.

So ugly. A crime.

Still waiting for his commemorative plaque & the statue of himself to show up.

Whoever runs next should have an ad where they go Donkey Kong on that concrete crap. Bring a jack hammer to everything.

Anything he's touched should be collected and every American is allowed to come and take a sledgehammer to it. And doo the ancient Egyptian tradition of striking his name from everywhere.

It’s absolutely fucking hideous and truly makes me want to vomit. That beautiful rose garden just gone!

Gross he destroyed the history now build a fucking ballroom why are Americans allowing him to make our Historic WH look like a cheap hotel!! This show be return to its beautiful glory. Trump & REPUBLICANS ARE COWARDS HE GIVING THEM WHAT? MUSK IS THREATENING. THAT PEOPLES HOUSE REMOVE HIM A 2nd con

So when do we get to restore the Rose Garden for historical purposes?

The next dem POTUS needs to make a huge, obvious showing of tearing this up, knocking down that ballroom, and destroying every scrap of that tacky ass gold plating he's put up.

Turning the WH into a cheap, tacky POS. Awful!

As an amateur gardener I see this as vandalism. The destruction of habitat for pollinators and a place of vibrancy, calm and beauty is a crime. Replacing that beauty with concrete reminds me of the absurdity and brutality of 1930’s 3rd Reich Architecture.

He's also "knocking down" the East Wing of OUR White House so he can build a gaudy $200 Million ball room. TWO HUNDRED MILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS to fluff his ego while kids go hungry. Evil Bastard.

Tasteless.

The Ballroom, the Rose Garden, the utter gilded kitsch of the Oval Office - say what you will about the Constitution and term limits, but he's planning on not leaving the White House. The only question remaining is what's going to be done about that, and by whom

So disgusting.

Ugh...🤢

The Rose Garden & some portraits removed; the Oval Office destroyed with gaudy gold gilding only a wanna-be-king would like. How many tax $ were wasted on this & how many tax $ will it take to restore the WH after this madman is gone? Plus, we know taxpayers will foot the bill for the ugly ballroom.

Can ppl pls put up wind turbines all around?

Really love what you’ve done with the place Biff. 🇺🇸🤡😢

I can't like/heart this.

I suggest the next Democratic president turn the $200m ballroom into a residential treatment/support center for homeless veterans.

I can feel the heat from those pavers in the DC summer.

Can’t wait for the next president to tear that shit apart.

It really sucks, but it's mendable. Let's focus on what will be much harder to restore. We know they shit on everything we love.. that's why they do it. Fucking mouthbreathers that they are.

Looks like a parking lot

ETTD

I’m just sick about this. Disgusting. And this PIG wants us to pay for his grand ballroom. Make it stop!

Hideous

Trump kills all living things he touches and leaves behind inanimate emptiness.

He forgot ask the owners if digging up the rose garden was a good idea. By owner’s I mean the American people. That ballroom is going to be an abomination as is this patio.
