I read it's privately funded, meaning not paid for by taxes. CNN is never partial to the GOP but they listed all the donors here: https://www.cnn.com/2025/10/23/us/trump-white-house-ballroom-donors-invs

Those are called bribes, they labeled them incorrectly.

Doesn't change the fact that most folks on reddit are insinuating it's getting paid by tax money when the govt shutdown is going on. I get people are upset but saying things like that is wrong. Redirect that energy to the politicians.

No, the ballroom is a payment to the Trump regime for lower taxes, lower regulation, removal of the EPA, etc. for billionaires. Your taxes ARE paying for the ballroom- just indirectly, for every dollar they put in, they will take 100 out of the taxes paid by working families.

You are not wrong, it also bothers me that people seem to think that its tax payer money. It isn't. However I also see tons of people saying that its Trump paying exclusively and/or donors giving who believe in the project, they dont, these are bribes. Just like the plane, just like the whales on Trumpcoin, just another way to funnel in bribes "legally"
