Stephen Colbert Was Genuinely Shocked That Trump Is Actually Going “Hulk Smash” On This American Institution, And It’s So Grim .m
SHOCK! TRUMP “HULK SMASH” THE EAST WING OF THE WHITE HOUSE TO BUILD A HUGE DANCE “PALACE”: ALL FOR A “COTTON CANDY DREAM”?
WASHINGTON D.C. – Perhaps Stephen Colbert was right: it seemed like there was nothing left about Donald Trump that could shock, but the former President always knew how to “attach electrodes to the nipples” of the public, making the “shock” always feel like the first time.
And the latest “shock” that has the media and the public talking nonstop is the plan to demolish the East Wing of the White House to make way for a giant ballroom that will overshadow the main residence!

“Hulk Smash” the White House After 9 Months?
The Late Show host Stephen Colbert couldn’t help but be sarcastic, comparing the move to the Hulk smashing the White House.
“We’re only nine months into Trump’s presidency, and he’s already Hulk-smashed the White House,” Colbert quipped. “It took him at least four years to bring a demolition team to the Capitol last time.”
While the quote was accompanied by footage of the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the comparison has sparked a wave of backlash. Was it a harmless jab, or a pointed reference to the “destruction” of American institutions?

The President’s “Cotton Candy Fantasy” Revealed
What’s even more shocking is Trump’s strange fascination with the ballroom project.
Speaking at an event honoring two college baseball teams, Trump went into detail about his future party “palace”:
“People will have drinks, cocktails, all on this floor, and then they’ll say, ‘Welcome to dinner.’ You walk into the ballroom, ‘Senators,’ and you’ll see a ballroom that I don’t think will ever be surpassed,” Trump excitedly described.
Colbert immediately mocked it as Trump’s “Barbie dream ballroom.” He harshly criticized the former President for “living in cotton candy fantasies of lavish regal ballrooms” even as… the government was on the verge of a government shutdown!

Public Opinion: Party or Country?
The comments from the show immediately sparked a heated debate.
Supporters may see this as a bold vision, aimed at elevating the prestige and hospitality of the White House, demonstrating the grandeur befitting a superpower.
Detractors see it as evidence of vanity, shortsightedness, and Trump’s putting personal interests (like hosting lavish parties) ahead of serious national issues.
The big question is: Is this plan really moving forward, or is it just one of the many “big dreams” the former President “let slip” in the heat of the moment? And if it does come true, will the White House – a symbol of American power and history – be transformed into a “party palace” at the whim of one individual?
Whatever the answer, Donald Trump is clearly keeping his promise: he will never stop shocking and making us talk!
