NBC’s Gabe Gutierrez: “With many Americans concerned about affordability ahead of the midterms, there is some backlash among Senate Republicans to some of your other priorities, the ballroom and the anti-weaponization fund. You clearly still have a stronghold in the Republican Party. Your candidates did very well this week during the primaries. But are you losing control of the Senate?” President Trump: “My candidates did well. Not all candidates did well.” Gutierrez: “But are you keeping control of the Senate, sir? Are you losing control of the Senate — Senate Republican?” Trump: “I don’t know, I really don’t know. I can tell you. I only do what’s right. I don’t need money for the ballroom. You know, I’m making a gift of the ballroom. This is the biggest misreporting that I’ve ever seen. The ballroom is being built. It will cost we — it was going to be 200 million. I’ve doubled the size of it because we need it. And it’s being done in conjunction with the military and with the — very much in conjunction with the military and Secret Service. We’re on time on budget. It’s going beautifully. I have all the money I need. We’re making a gift to the United States. They came along and they said, we want to make it the House — the White House overall more secure. And I understand that. Not for me, because I’ll be gone. You know, I’ll be gone and you’ll have somebody else in for hopefully hundreds of years. But that’s what they’re doing it for. The ballroom is paid for. It’s a gift. I mean, I want to make it clear because so many people say, I thought you were giving this away. And all of a sudden the money that they’re spending is for security having to do maybe around the ballroom and other parts of the house. But this is not for the ballroom. The ballroom is being a tremendous amount of what’s being done with respect to the ballroom is for national security, including, as an example, a drone port on top of which was top secret until litigation made it less than top secret. But we have a drone port. We had. We have also we have the glass that’s four inches thick, bulletproof glass. We have bulletproof walls. We have things you need a place like this. But this is being made as a gift from me and other people that are great patriots that spent a lot of money. We’re building what will be the finest ballroom anywhere in the world. If they want to spend money on securing the White House, I think it would be very, very much a good expenditure. But the ballroom is being built.” Gutierrez: “But what if Congress doesn’t sign off on the security money, sir?” Trump: “Then the White House won’t be a very secure place.”
