Trump has suggested that a $230 million payment he is reportedly eyeing off as compensation for his past legal battles could be used to help fund his controversial White House ballroom.
As demolition continued on the East Wing of the White House on Tuesday, reports emerged that the president was demanding that his own Justice Department compensate him for the federal investigations he faced during Joe Bidens presidency.
Asked during a Diwali celebration in the Oval Office to confirm those reports, Trump replied: They probably owe me a lot of money, but if I get money from our country, Ill probably do something nice with it, like give it to charity or give it to the White House while we restore the White House.
As you know, the ballroom is under construction, he added. Theyve been trying to get it for 150 years, and I think its going to be fantastic. But well see what happens.
