Donald Trump is overseeing extensive renovations at the
White House and
Joint Base Andrews, including a $300 million ballroom project and golf course refurbishments.
Trump personally selected materials and design elements, appointed Will Scharf to oversee construction approvals, and announced Jack Nicklaus will design the golf course restoration. Despite criticism, Trump is also planning other projects such as a Paris-style arch near the Lincoln Memorial and expressed regret about not soliciting funds from foreign guests.
