"MSNBC host and former Biden White House press secretary Jen Psaki trashed President Donald Trump as a joke over several laughable examples of what she called autocratic corruption. Since taking office for a second time, Trump has overseen massive changes to the physical features of the White House, including a gold-drenched Oval Office overhaul, a paved-over lawn in the Rose Garden, and now a major demolition of the East Wing to make way for a massive ballroom."
"On Thursday's edition of MSNBC's The Briefing with Jen Psaki, the host cited the White House remake and his pardon of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao as examples of how authoritarian leaders can become so caught up in projecting their own power: PSAKI: Okay, so we're going to get to Governor Whitmer in a moment. I'm really looking forward to talking to her, hearing what she's hearing out in the country, as she's visiting red districts across the country."
Jen Psaki criticized President Donald Trump for ostentatious changes and alleged autocratic behavior. Trump has implemented extensive White House alterations including a gold-drenched Oval Office, a paved-over Rose Garden lawn, and plans to demolish and rebuild the entire East Wing to create a massive ballroom. An unnamed White House official told NBC News that the East Wing demolition contradicts earlier assurances. Psaki also cited Trump's pardon of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao as evidence of power projection. Psaki referenced Barack Obama's 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner roast of Trump to underscore how leaders can become consumed by self-image.
