| 0:00.0 | All right, everybody knows that Donald Trump really isn't particularly interested in policy |
| 0:09.5 | as much as he is his interior design and architecture projects. |
| 0:13.2 | And here to discuss this with me today is my BFF, Jack Cottarella. |
| 0:19.5 | Jack, a federal judge, Kylie, pop this up. A federal judge has ordered the Trump |
| 0:26.3 | administration to halt construction of a $400 million white house ballroom ruling the project |
| 0:33.5 | cannot move forward unless Congress approves it. Needless to say, Trump is devastated |
| 0:40.5 | and throwing feces all over Lie Social. Jack. |

| 0:50.3 | a while because he was reading the judge's ruling and he was like live reacting to it, |

| 1:27.9 | is partly the reason for the project. |
| 1:29.8 | But it's also because he wants to leave some lasting legacy that he can see and have people |
| 1:36.2 | celebrate him for before he dies because he knows what's going to happen when he dies. |
| 1:41.0 | Every memorial to Donald Trump will just become a public bathroom. But he |
| 1:44.3 | traveled from complaining about the ballroom to then deciding he's going to the Trump Kennedy |
| 1:49.7 | Center. I just, I can't even believe I said that. But last night, did you see that he got booed |
| 1:54.1 | at the Kennedy Center? Like the other version of a thing that he's trying to make for himself is also |
