W Why settle for one ballroom when you can have two? While US President Donald Trump was able to decide on the $400 million construction project for the White House in Washington on his own, he has to obtain planning permission from the county administration to add a ballroom to his golf hotel in Doonbeg in the west of Ireland.
According to Trump, the plan is to have the “most beautiful ballroom” in all of Ireland, what else? It will offer space for 320 guests in an area of 1,240 square meters. The addition will include a main hall, lobby, various bar and lounge areas, champagne and tea stations, a bridal suite and a covered terrace.
Before the planning application was submitted, investigations into the Vertigo Angustior had to be carried out. This two millimeter snail is threatened with extinction. But rescue is at hand: Trump announced that he is a great friend of the little snail. His ballroom will have no impact on the animal – but it will have an impact on some buildings. While the east wing of the White House is being sacrificed, Doughmore House in Doonbeg has to go. It was recently renovated, refurnished with country-house style furniture and rented out via Airbnb. That revenue will be lost to Trump if the ballroom is approved.
And it will undoubtedly be approved when the county council votes on it on February 24th. After Trump continually confused Greenland with Iceland during his speech in Davos last Wednesday, alarm bells rang in Ireland. After all, phonetically you are very close to Iceland. And there are plenty of Russian ships and submarines in the waters around Ireland – reason enough for Trump to annex Ireland for security reasons and to secure the potato mines for the USA.
There is always a threat of terrorism on the Emerald Isle. Last Wednesday, the Irish Army’s bomb disposal squad was called to Trump’s hotel in Doonbeg because a suspicious package of white powder was discovered there – just a few hours after the president’s son Eric Trump left the resort for Davos. His father must have rebuked him because the package that Eric had left behind in Ireland was intended for him. It is not difficult to guess what the white powder was. And didn’t Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher swear she knew about Donald Trump’s coke?
But perhaps the Irish ballroom is about something completely different. Did JD Vance possibly submit the planning application to confuse Trump? Do you want to make him believe that the golf hotel is the White House, deport him there and let him believe that he is still president if his dementia progresses further?
