ABC News was out of control with their dangerous conspiracy theories Tuesday morning. In an attempt to gaslight their viewers into thinking President Trump was preparing to do something horrific against America, they pretended that the White House didn’t already have a bunker underneath it. They blatantly claimed the one reportedly being built under the new ballroom was being designed for him to hold onto power and control the country after he would refuse to leave office.
The bunker under the White House was decades old and there had been many advancements in construction, defensive, and other technologies since it was first completed. The demolition of the East Wing to make way for the ballroom and new office space for the first lady provided a great opportunity for the construction of an updated bunker.
But, according to ABC News moderator Whoopi Goldberg, the White House didn’t need a bunker. She also screamed about how Trump was treating the White House like a personal property, despite the fact that the construction benefited future presidents: “Why are you building a bunker under the White House?! The White House doesn’t — it’s not your building! You don’t own the building! You can’t just put stuff there! IT IS NOT YOUR HOUSE!”
Never offering criticism of the dystopian eye sore that is the Obama Library, Whoopi claims the proposed Trump library “looks like a giant penis.”
She also shouts that the White House doesn’t need a bunker under it:

Proving once again how feeble her mind was, Goldberg equated the White House to generic “public property” and suggested Trump had “destroyed public property.” She also shouted that the construction couldn’t continue because she was personally disallowing it by speaking out, and whined that if she had destroyed public property, she would go to jail. (Click “expand”):
But it’s not his! It doesn’t matter what any the – It is not his house! It is owned by the federal government! Making it — Making it public property. It’s not personal property of the sitting president. Every president gets to live there while he’s there. This is not his.
It – it – I don’t understand. You were saying why isn’t anybody saying — well, I’m saying you can’t destroy — this is public property! If I went out and destroyed public property, they would put me in jail!
Whoopi proclaims that no construction of any kind can be done at the White House because she personally is disallowing it. She equates the construction to “destroying public property” and claims that she would be put in jail for the same thing:

ABC News co-host Sunny Hostin said she found it “shocking” and “disconcerting” that a bunker was being constructed under the White House.
Demonstrating that their minds really did live in a fantasyland, Hostin suggested the official government plan in an emergency was to transport all the country’s billionaires to the White House bunker. They even suggested it was like Hulu original series Paradise (which was owned by Disney, the show’s parent company):
HOSTIN: Why is there a bunker? And all the billionaires now, if something bad happens, is the plan that all of them are going in the bunker?
BEHAR: Of course!
GOLDBERG: Didn’t you see Paradise?
HOSTIN: It’s just like Paradise!

Goldberg expanded off that nonsense and claimed the bunker was where Trump was going to try to control the country from when he would refuse to leave office after the 2028 elections:
GOLDBERG: The message is to you all, he thinks he is going to be here! He thinks he’s going to be here as president!
HOSTIN: Why build a bunker?
Despite the fact the existence of the bunker was leaked because of a lawsuit, progressive comedian and guest co-host Whitney Cummings (because they ran out of faux conservatives to serve up), suggested Trump was the one who leaked it and put future presidents’ lives at risk:
CUMMINGS: By the time that one is done it will be the next president’s. So, he’s telling our enemies where the next president is going to be. And take a page out of Dwight Eisenhower’s book he – Dwight Eisenhower’s book he built the Greenbrier bunker in 1960, no one found out about it till 1992. That is how an adult comports national security issues.
HOSTIN: Telegraphed it.
It’s worth noting that later in the show, Cummings claimed that all men hate women and whined that all her doctors say she’s crazy.

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: Look, there’s so much crazy stuff going on, I mean, the fact that — did you see the rendition of the library that he’s building.
SUNNY HOSTIN: Yes. Yes.
JOY BEHAR: Yes.
GOLDBERG: It’s a giant — it looks like a giant penis.
[Laughter]
BEHAR: Let me see that.
GOLDBERG: It’s just this giant thing and —
BEHAR: Ironic because he can’t read as it is and yet he’s got this big library.
GOLDBERG: This giant thing and it’s, like, where are you putting that and why are you building a bunker under the White House?! The White House doesn’t — it’s not your building! You don’t own the building! You can’t just put stuff there! IT IS NOT YOUR HOUSE!
(…)
11:08:29 a.m. Eastern
GOLDBERG: But it’s not his! It doesn’t matter what any the – It is not his house! It is owned by the federal government! Making it —
[Applause ]
Making it public property. It’s not personal property of the sitting president. Every president gets to live there while he’s there. This is not his.
It – it – I don’t understand. You were saying why isn’t anybody saying — well, I’m saying you can’t destroy — this is public property! If I went out and destroyed public property, they would put me in jail!
HOSTIN: Well, Congress isn’t doing anything.
BEHAR: They let him get away with everything.
HOSTIN: Congress isn’t doing anything but you do have certain litigation. There are historic societies that, architectural societies that are suing him. What is shocking to me is the fact that underneath this – this – um
BEHAR: Bunker.
HOSTIN: No, underneath the ballroom is the military bunker.
GOLDBERG Yes, that’s what I’m talking about!
HOSTIN: And that part is disconcerting because Trumps says stuff like, ‘I can’t believe that people know about the bunker now, because of a stupid lawsuit.’ Why is there a bunker? And all the billionaires now, if something bad happens, is the plan that all of them are going in the bunker?
BEHAR: Of course!
GOLDBERG: Didn’t you see Paradise?
HOSTIN: It’s just like Paradise!
[Crosstalk]
WHITNEY CUMMINGS: By the time that one is done it will be the next president’s. So, he’s telling our enemies where the next president is going to be. And take a page out of Dwight Eisenhower’s book he – Dwight Eisenhower’s book he built the Greenbrier bunker in 1960, no one found out about it till 1992. That is how an adult comports national security issues.
HOSTIN: Telegraphed it.
[Crosstalk]
GOLDBERG: The message is to you all, he thinks he is going to be here! He thinks he’s going to be here as president!
HOSTIN: Why build a bunker?
CUMMINGS: Why pretend you’re going to have a ballroom with dancing?
