Donald Trump took an unexpected walk across the White House roof on Tuesday (5 August), announcing that he was “taking a little walk” when asked why he was up there.
The US president emerged from a door connected to the State Dining Room and stepped onto the roof above the press briefing room and west colonnade, spending almost 20 minutes surveying the rooftop and grounds below, including the newly-paved Rose Garden.
In July, the White House announced that construction on a huge, new $200m ballroom would begin in September. It is the first structural change to the Executive Mansion itself since the addition of the Truman balcony in 1948.

Diddler on the Roof yelling out lies.
I'm gonna enjoy also a walk as well soon along the namekagen river shoreline within Wisconsin and fish I think after I finish drinking an angry minnow beer, "I have been woked" possibly, and I'm now afterwards basically not in the mood for any analysis and or arguments, know I like to dance too Donald Trump, publicate a ballroom blitz when the renovations are done, maybe eventually I too will publicate my dance moves, though I'm sure someone has already witnessed them when speaking of those who monitor the networks.

"My money"
Stupid use of tax dollars. Some Americans are starving.
Stop him before he makes it it look like a trashy hotel ffs
GOD Bless this man and his family and his entire Administration!!! He and Elon Musk have done more for America than any two other human beings than Ever before existed with the most demonic opposition than Ever was before!!! Shame on the LIARS and greedy, treasonous, evil workers of iniquity that are standing in the way of making our GOD-given and Ordained Rights available again!!! ❤️🔥🙏🙏🙏❤️🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸!
What a nut job
What is this clown 🤡 doing on the roof?
Almighty God is watching us in Heaven so have faith in God & President Trump!
Stop being sarcastic & disrespectful towards your own American President Trump who has shown good leadership in restoring America & providing peace, prosperity, good luck & good livelihood to all Americans!
Stand up for President Trump & stay united as one good holy united nation America & live happily together with harmony!
Stay safe & sound, stay sharp & focus, stay healthy, stay vigilant always towards any signs of evil threats, sinful killings, terrorist attacks & riots which can cause chaos, sufferings, inflation, cost of living increases & unsafe to all Americans!

He's gonna build a dome watch and see.
He leaves a trail of destruction wherever he goes
Where is Elon now, talk about wasting money, we can get our already paid in retirement benefits but this clown gets another ball room tax right off we paid for, SMH
Go to jumping
The crazy man is on the roof. Come down you fool! Check his meds.😮
The renovations are for the use of the US government! Instead of giving money to foreign governments, etc., use it at home!
He talks about his salary paying for it… Wait 🤔. Didn't he say he wasn't accepting a salary?? 😡😡👎👎🤮
Seriously he needs a therapy, I'm not joking or offending, he behaves like he is affected by mild psychosis
Don't jump
People are starving and dying in Gaza Mr. President and you are the one who can stop this holocaust genocide in an instant if you wanted too. Human beings, innocent human beings are being killed as I write this. Do as You promised no more wars, an end to all wars you said. You said “I want people to stop dying.” Here is your opportunity to be a peace maker humanitarian, a lover of life. What would Jesus do? Where is your humanity? Please Stop funding Israel, please stop arming Israel with American citizens tax payer money. Stop it now. You do not have the majority of voters on this. The whole world is watching you/ us participate in this atrocity. No reasonable American wants to be any part of the occupation of Palestine, we want this to stop. Israel does not have a claim to the holy land, it is not in the Bible. Palestinians do. You will be remembered in history Mr. President as the President who funded a genocide and holocaust of the Palestinian people. What are you doing planning a Ball room?? You have more important things to do, keep your promises. Put America first before Israel. Save the innocent children and families who are starving to death. Please
