The East Wing was added to the grounds of the White House in 1942.

It stood the test of time! As long as it was there, many visitors entered the White House through those doors. From dignitaries to simple people taking a tour through people’s house.

Now, in a flash of an eye to see? It’s gone for ever. No, I have made a visit to the sacred ground. But now, I probably won’t visit this symbol of freedom, where the people who are privileged to actually live there? I have no intention or desire due what has been done.

I will call it the White House, but the thought of Trump destroying a huge part of it is the most difficult thing to comprehend.

At the cost of $300 million plus, it will be impossible to say it’s still the same. It will become gaudy and look like something from a Moscow theater! Pathetic and disgusting!

I have good memories of what there beer and I will continue to see that building forever.
