Why would it have to take 4 years? It sure hasn't taken the current admin 4 years to disappear people into Salvadorian torture prisons.

Destroying things and outsourcing to already-built prisons is easy. Building things is not.

All they have is a demolition site. There's no final design. Trump keeps changing his vision of his mausoleum. They don't have an architect since the previous one quit.

They have less than a week to submit construction plans[1], and they're clearly missing that deadline. It is of course not the end, but it's a sign of things to come, about half a year in.

Trump is personally running the project instead of delegating it and as we all know he's ruled by whims and disorganized plus rapidly mentally deteriorating at 79 years of age. He's talking about getting into heaven and desperately slapping his name on random physical things because he's obsessed with leaving a grandiose "legacy", any kind of mark on history. He will, but it'll rather be as a seditionist and corrupt ravager of civil institutions and the rule of law -- a pitiful despoiler.

There's no section about the ball room in Project 2025, and no one else but Trump cares about this pet project.
