WASHINGTON — The White House is suspending public tours because of the construction of a 90,000-square-foot ballroom initiated by President Donald Trump, a White House official said. The official did not provide a timeline for when tours would resume, saying only that the suspension is temporary,

The Trump administration has closed “The People’s House” to the people while it builds the president a $200 million Mar-a-Lago-style ballroom. The administration canceled all White House tours scheduled for September and is not accepting requests for any future dates,

Since the beginning of his second term, Trump has directed several major renovations at the White House. Trump redesigned the previously minimalist Oval Office, making some of the most significant changes to the room's appearance in modern presidential history, adding gold medallions, gold vermeil figurines, gold eagles, and gilded Rococo mirrors.

President Donald Trump made a surprise return to the popular video app TikTok with three montages posted to a new official @whitehouse account Tuesday night.

The move continues a remarkable turnabout toward the app for President Trump, who tried to ban TikTok in his first term.

The musician described the Oval Office as a "vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler's dressing room."

Trump's 2015 Mobile rally was a turning point that shocked the political establishment and conquered the Bible Belt.

Republican strategists say that if they throw in popular phrases such as “working families” and “tax cuts,” voters will embrace the deeply unpopular legislation.
