flag Trump hosts dinner in newly renovated, donor-funded White House ballroom with bulletproof glass and historic design.

flag President Donald Trump hosted a White House dinner on October 15, 2025, for about 130 wealthy donors and corporate leaders who contributed to a $250 million renovation of a new ballroom, which features bulletproof glass and historic-style design. flag The event, held in the completed space, included a formal meal and attended by executives from Amazon, Apple, Meta, Lockheed Martin, and others, along with political allies and donors. flag Trump, deeply involved in design choices including marble, lighting, and layout, has personally overseen the project, which is being built by Clark Construction and designed by McCrery Architects. flag The ballroom is intended to host major events, including inaugurations, and is expected to be finished before the end of his term. flag Critics have questioned the blending of private funding and political influence, while officials maintain the project preserves historical integrity.
