Eric Swalwell’s latest demand is the perfect example of how far the Left has fallen into a pit of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). This California Democrat, already notorious for questionable judgment, has now called on every Democrat hopeful for the 2028 presidential race to promise that, on day one, they will demolish the ballroom that Donald Trump is building at the White House. It’s a childish tantrum, plain and simple — the kind of reckless, symbolic gesture typical of a party desperately grasping at relevance.
Swalwell’s own track record reveals more than just petulance. The man once got himself entangled with a Chinese spy — yes, a legitimate foreign intelligence operative — who targeted California politicians for years. Swalwell’s lapses in judgment aren’t just embarrassing; they’re a serious security risk that should have ended his career long ago. Yet here he is, doubling down on his anti-Trump fanaticism while facing investigations into financial shadiness and mortgage fraud. And let’s not forget the bizarre payments of hundreds of thousands to a so-called “security contractor” with no license. It’s the same kind of corruption and lack of accountability that the Left preaches against — until it’s one of their own caught in the act.
The Left’s obsession with the Trump ballroom is about more than just an addition to the White House. For nearly 250 years, the presidential residence has been updated and remodeled multiple times without so much as a whisper of outrage. Trump’s ballroom addresses a practical need: a place to host dignitaries and large events without resorting to awkward, weather-dependent tents outside. And unlike the past, Trump is paying for this upgrade out of his own pocket. Yet Swalwell and the anti-Trump mob treat this functional improvement like a sacrilege. They desperately want the White House to remain stuck in the past — a symbol to be hoarded rather than a living, breathing center of American power.
It’s laughable that any Democrat presidential contender would take such a pledge seriously, let alone agree to demolish something as structurally sound and symbolically important as this ballroom out of spite. Doing so would only confirm that the Democrats lack any real vision or intelligence in the 2028 race. But what else would you expect from a party that labels anyone who disagrees as Nazis and launches wild conspiracy theories about escape plans to Argentina? The Left has made a mockery of reason and patriotism, turning their politics into a clown show of hysteria and incompetence.
Swalwell’s demand is not just silly — it’s a sickening example of the Left’s unhinged anti-American zealotry. While honest conservatives recognize the need to improve and modernize our nation’s iconic institutions, the Left clings to a warped preservationism that values crumbling traditions over common sense. If Democrats choose to back Swalwell’s madness, they are signaling that their only platform is destruction. And that’s a campaign no proud American should endorse.
