Why did Donald Trump start roaming the White House lawn and talking about a ballroom?

Ben Meiselas 0:00
A demented and addled Donald Trump just ran outside the White House. He flagged down the press and he said, Let's talk about the ballroom. Let's talk about the ballroom. We're going to put drones all over Washington, D.C. Washington, D.C. is going to be patrolled by my drones, and I'm going to build a drone port on the ballroom. I mean, he literally looks like a lunatic. This just happened moments ago. Let's Play it.
Donald Trump 0:25
And now we're gonna walk over and we're going to see this goes equidistant or the other side and right over there if you notice is where the ballroom and military complex will be. And the military complex is gonna have a drone-proof uh roof and you're going to have on top of the roof you're gonna have drones, spitty drones, which will protect Washington DC and will protect the White House. Very important. So let's take a look at the helipad and we'll walk together if you'd like.

And then he said, My ballroom. He goes, follow me, follow me. My ballroom. It's gonna be so great. We're gonna have cocktails and it's drone proof, and we're gonna launch drones throughout Washington, DC. You you wanna have cocktails in my golden ballroom? Folks, this is so utterly deranged here. Play this clip.
Donald Trump 1:15
the br you know beautiful new roadway. They get out of the car and they walk down this path onto that and they can have cocktails and everything outside of the White House. And then they go into the ballroom.

What is Trump’s “ballroom” vision and how does he plan to use drones and a drone‑proof roof?

Donald Trump 1:26
Uh even the military they can use it like that and we have so the ballroom is so much a military component with the drones and the bomb shelters and everything else that we have in there. So it's really you know, that started off as a ballroom. And before we started work, the military came to see me and they say, sir, we have an opportunity to do something incredible here.
Ben Meiselas 1:45
And then he continued to talk about how the ballroom is gonna be amazing and how uh the stone has a lifespan that's longer than a million years. I don't know what what the hell is even happening here? Let's play this clip.
Donald Trump 2:00
It's a million-year life. It's a very strong stone. It will never break. It will never leak. It will never do one of those. This is the highest quality stone you can get. And especially for something like this, it's got, it's rated a million year plus. That means it has a million-year life. Can you imagine that? It's 35,000 pounds per square inch. If you look at hard concrete, hard concrete is 5,000 pounds. Uh this is 30 five thousand. So nature is stronger than what the human can produce. It's really pretty amazing.
Ben Meiselas 2:31
Then he says that one of his big donors is Scott's Miracle Grow. They're a great company, he said. They're a big donor, and they've now given him this grass for the White House. And so he wants to give a shout out to his donor, Scott's Miracle Grow, for the great grass that's now being delivered to the White House. And he plugs the company. Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump 2:56
Was the highest quality. It was given free of charge by Scotts Miracle Grow. Scotts. And Scotts is a great, a great company. They actually contributed to my campaign. I must be honest, you'll figure that one out. And they said uh to me, sir, we'd like to replace the grass at the White House with the highest quality grass and do a real job. So, Scotts, I want to thank Scott's Miracle Grow. It's uh very I think the biggest grass company in the world, somebody said, but it's very big and very good and uh the owners are fantastic people and I wanna thank 'em. So
Ben Meiselas 3:31
And by the way, while Donald Trump is engaged in this ridiculous, demented lunacy that we're observing before our very eyes, right there, the American people are suffering. The price of diesel is at an all-time high, now over $5.50 a gallon for diesel nationwide. The price of regular gas over $4 a gallon. And the price of crude continues to surge. We are in deeply troubling economic times and deeply troubling times. And this is what he's doing. He then says that the grass is gonna be very happy. This is a line that he keeps on repeating now. Did you know grass is alive? He says, and I'm gonna make them very well fed.
