Based on the breakdown the White House offers for its $1.0 billion ask, purportedly for the East Wing Dance Hall, Trump just made shit up, as he does.
He wants $175 million for Secret Service "training," $220 million to harden the White House complex against drones, and other asymmetrical warfare weapons, $180 million for a new visitor center.
Btw, the breakdown does not include construction costs - above or below ground - for a new East Wing.
