Donald Trump began his meeting with oil industry executives by admiring the view from what will one day be his controversial ballroom at the White House. The scene quickly became a blank canvas for hundreds of memes.
“Actually, if you look, thinking about it… Well, I need to see this with my own eyes,” said Donald Trump as he stood up from his chair to look out the room’s window.
“What a view. This is the door to the ballroom,” he added.
The project required $400 million to build, in addition to demolishing the East Wing of the historic presidential building.

Although it was an innocent gesture by Donald Trump, X user MurdoinkGS (formerly Twitter) edited the windows and applied a green background so others could unleash their creativity.
California Governor Gavin Newsom posted a video of Trump “admiring the view,” which was edited to include footage of the president and Jeffrey Epstein partying at Mar-a-Lago in 1992.
“PAM BONDI, RELEASE THE FILES!” he wrote in the caption.
Other users placed scenes of Bowser in compromising positions, and even watching scenes from “Heated Rivalry.”
