Scott Jennings Melts Down as Trump’s Ballroom Build Halted

CNN’s resident MAGA mouthpiece Scott Jennings clashed with fellow panelists over a federal judge’s decision to halt Donald Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom project.

U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled on Tuesday that the 79-year-old president lacked the authority to tear down the East Wing and build the 90,000-square-foot ballroom—the budget for which has soared to $400 million, double the original price tag.
