Trump proposes to turn the White House press room into a swimming pool
Donald Trump is considering converting the White House press room into a swimming pool, which he reportedly called his "last legacy". This idea was discussed in private meetings with former Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. The press room has been in use for over fifty years, and replacing it would effectively remove the press from the presidential complex. The space originally housed a pool built by Franklin D. Roosevelt for his therapy. Trump's administration has previously suggested relocating the press to the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. Despite his frequent confrontations with the media, Trump continues to engage with reporters daily.
