The ball room BS is really about a bunker for him to hide in like Hitler.
It won’t be finished in time for him to hide from his own fellow citizens

It's useless to build a bunker against nuclear weapons AND POINT IT OUT ON A MAP.
But against American citizens, perhaps.
Chef Andres can make dinner for us as we stand above it "as long as it takes"

The Women's March on Versailles in October 1789. It would be inspiring to see angry crowds rattling the gates of the White House and calling for his head while he cowered in fear.

The Women's March on Versailles, also known as the Black March, the October Days or simply the March on Versailles, was one of the earliest and most significant events of the French Revolution. The march began among women in the marketplaces of Paris who, on the morning of 5 October 1789, were nearly rioting over the high price of bread. The unrest quickly became intertwined with the activities of revolutionaries seeking liberal political reforms and a constitutional monarchy for France. The market women and their allies ultimately grew into a crowd of thousands. Encouraged by revolutionary agitators, they ransacked the city armory for weapons and marched on the Palace of Versailles. The crowd besieged the palace and, in a dramatic and violent confrontation, they successfully pressed their demands upon King Louis XVI. The very next day, the crowd forced the king and his family to return with them to Paris. Over the next few weeks, most of the French assembly also relocated to the capital.
