President Donald Trump‘s latest White House makeover touches have taken a new turn as it becomes a “construction zone eyesore,” The Daily Beast reported.
Images on Monday revealed two cranes building a metal arch for lighting over the UFC Freedom 250 stage, just near the White House’s Executive Residence.
As the ballroom construction has been ongoing, the White House “began looking more like an oversized event venue on Monday as crews prepared for the UFC extravaganza Trump is throwing on June 14 to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday and his own 80th,” The Beast reported.
This is all happening amid reports of a “bug infestation” that Dana White, UFC CEO and MAGA supporter, has expressed could be a problem for the large-scale event.
“President Trump just opened the Rose Garden two nights ago, and he invited me to dinner there. The amount of gnats that were flying around. I’m like, ‘Holy s–t,’” White said during an episode of the Boardroom podcast.
“As soon as I got on the plane, I called my head of production and said, ‘Yeah, let me tell you about the gnat situation tonight,’” White said. “So when you’re a fighter, think about that lighting grid, the amount of power in the lights… moths, gnats, and God knows what else.”
White said they could add fans surrounding the venue to help stop the bugs because “gnats have a hard time in the wind.”
