(NewsNation) — President Trump on Sunday showcased the latest plans for his new White House ballroom and said the future addition would be bulletproof, impervious to drones and include a “massive” military complex underneath the structure.

Trump was taking questions from reporters aboard Air Force One when he began holding up a series of architectural drawings and talked at length about the project he began pursuing early in his second term.

“We have all bullet-proof glass, we have drone-proof roofs, ceilings,” the president said as he shuffled through the renderings. “Unfortunately, we’re living in an age when that’s a good thing.”

The 90,000-square-foot structure will also feature a military installation under the ballroom, he said.

So, does he want his own Janissaries or Praetorian Guard? He should read some history. Various Ottoman sultans and Roman emperors were assassinated by their guards when they displeased them.

1. So when does he start? Are they actually building? And announcing the bunker part defeats the purpose.

2. He already has a Praetorian Guard

The Secret Service and ICE effectively serve in that role.

3. No secret there were secure facilities beneath the East Wing.

All he is doing is rebuilding and enhancing his hidey-hole.

4. Maybe all Military bases/facilities should have Ballrooms too! Make Ballrooms Great Again.

6. "Unfortunately, we're living in an age when that's a good thing."

I wonder whose fault that is?

7. The Situation Room was previously under the East Wing.

That’s the military aspect here.
