This is beginning to look less and less like a ballroom.

More money to put into his pocket the Griff continues.

There is bunker stuff beneath it, but of what value is that? Giving away your location is a sure way to collect missiles from foreign nations. The president has a "Doomsday Plane" to escape when the country is nuked. It can only be a "panic room" to defend against Americans, which he expects by the "every accusation is a confession" mirror rule, to storm the White House, having set his Jan 6 militia against congress. It is only another diversion, as is every action taken since his second term began, from the Epstein matter, the biggest illicit sex, blackmail and money-laundering operation in history. All the grift stands to be lost when his true involvement is exposed.
