One thing you can say about the left is their immunity to charges of hypocrisy. It is because of the leftist superpower: a lack of shame.
The left masks this lack of shame with constant outrage. Case in point, Democrats are gritting and gnashing their teeth over President Donald Trump remodeling the East Wing of the White House for the construction of a grand ballroom.
“It’s a desecration of a historical landmark!” The White House is not Trump’s palace, it’s the people’s building!” “It’s another example of Trump as an autocratic dictator!”
Hmmm, my question is, where was that outrage when radical leftists tore down beautiful and historic statues because they were deemed hateful and offensive?
There were no shouts of desecration of historical landmarks or concerns about the people affected by their removal. The refrain from the left was to tear down these statues of Confederate generals and other slave owners.
And then they act like the White House has never been remodeled to suit the Presidents who occupied it. Theodore Roosevelt built a tennis court located at the south end of the West Wing. In 1933, Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) had an indoor swimming pool for polio-related physical therapy.
White House officials later covered the pool and turned it into the Press Briefing Room in 1970. Harry Truman gutted the entire White House interior for major reconstruction from 1949 to 1952.
Barack Obama changed the tennis court into a basketball court.
For decades, tents went up for major state events. Now, Trump wants to build a grand ballroom worthy of the people’s house. What he is doing is no different from other presidents, but Democrats and wussy Republicans in name only (RINOs) don’t want you to know that.
Any regular person would feel shamed if called out for their hypocrisy. Instead, the left is doubling down. I guess this superpower cancels out a conscience.
Oh and here’s an image of what the golden ballroom will looked like .
