“Watch the beam go up.”
— Donald Trump, November 4, 2026

The day after Republicans lost both chambers of Congress, Trump took questions at the White House ballroom construction site. Asked if he was worried about impeachment, he said he wasn’t. Then he directed everyone’s attention to the last steel beam going up.
