SNL satirizes Trump White House ballroom plan

Saturday Night Live satirized Donald Trump’s controversial East Wing demolition with a mock behind the scenes tour, starring James Austin Johnson and Chloe Fineman as Donald and Melania. The pair tout a gigantic ballroom for their “forever home”—“ready just in time for my third term”—and joke about “doing something called coup.” A narrator cites a budget “between $350 million and infinity,” no permits, and constant “enlarge.” The sketch riffs on earlier renovations, including a paved Rose Garden, and says their 2021 eviction preceded Trump’s interior-design spree. Melania credits his love of dancing—and her need for space.
