Carson counters that just about every president has modernized and expanded White House facilities, citing Obama and others' renovations—yet only Trump's efforts are scrutinized. He points out that these renovations are funded by private investors, not taxpayer dollars, making them a patriotic act of building legacy.
This section underscores the hypocrisy of the media: while progressives complain about luxury, they ignore the historical norm of presidential updating, turning a routine upgrade into a political scandal.
