President Trump Takes Out ‘Sacred’ Trees for New White House Ballroom, Hysterical Media Loses Its Mind – Twitchy

This is really all you got, huh?

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.

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:
Without looking it up, tell me what the G stood for https://t.co/3T8okm8IVf

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
