Melania Trump breaks ground on new Presidential bunker at White House

From the article:

First lady Melania Trump announced on Tuesday afternoon that she had -- ceremonial shovel in hand -- marked the start of construction for a new White House Presidential bunker on the South Lawn.
"Exciting to break ground on the new Presidential bunker project at the White House today," she tweeted. "Thank you to all who will help in making this legacy piece possible for future first crime families to gather at and hide from law enforcement and enraged citizens for years to come."

Shortly after Melania Trump's tweet, her office sent out a press release stating the new pavilion will be funded by the many
criminal associates of the current President. The donors were not listed. The release also said the project was "fueled by Mrs. Trump's passion to provide a functional bunker for all first crime families and to hold off the authorities until the current President is rescued by Vladimir Putin.."

Note: Alert readers will see that I slightly altered the original article to provide some entertainment for DU readers.

Enjoy.

Putin would never rescue Trump if we were to be indicted, arrested and tried.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%BChrerbunker

The Führerbunker (German pronunciation: [ˈfyːʁɐˌbʊŋkɐ]) was an air raid shelter located near the Reich Chancellery in Berlin, Germany. It was part of a subterranean bunker complex constructed in two phases in 1936 and 1944. It was the last of the Führer Headquarters (Führerhauptquartiere) used by Adolf Hitler during World War II.

Hitler took up residence in the Führerbunker on 16 January 1945, and it became the centre of the Nazi regime until the last week of World War II in Europe. Hitler married Eva Braun there on 29 April 1945, less than 40 hours before they committed suicide.

After the war, both the old and new Chancellery buildings were levelled by the Soviets. The underground complex remained largely undisturbed until 1988–89, despite some attempts at demolition. The excavated sections of the old bunker complex were mostly destroyed during reconstruction of that area of Berlin. The site remained unmarked until 2006, when a small plaque was installed with a schematic diagram. Some corridors of the bunker still exist but are sealed off from the public.


Maybe we should check what's UNDERNEATH the tennis shed??

As is Andy Borowitz.

I wanted to see how little I could change the actual story and make it more relevant.

I hope Mel stocked up on aderall and British Sudafed; it could be a bumpy ride. And plenty of burders, too.
