To “reinstate symmetry” because of the East Wing project, the new West Wing should be called “Jeffrey”.
Trump goes sundown walkabout in a meeting.
At a meeting with oil industry CEO’s Trump suddenly interrupts his introductory remarks, gets up and looks out the window and starts talking about his ballroom. Trump then realizes his mistake and says “unusual time to look”, and sits back down to continue.

Trump is clearly not well.

President Trump humiliated himself Friday when Secretary of State Marco Rubio tried to slyly pass him a note during a meeting with oil executives, and he immediately read it aloud.
Marco just gave me a note. ‘Go back to Chevron, they want to discuss something,’” Trump read. trib.al/lOv9Fso

Someone intoduced themselves to Trump at his corrupt oil exec meeting saying, "I'm a wild catter." Trump got very excited. I think he thinks it has something to do with assaulting women.

Did they say not to build the ballroom that large because of symmetry with the West Wing but Trump heard them say that the West Wing needed an expansion.
Despite previously declaring that the project would “not interfere” with the existing White House building, the president’s lead architect revealed on Thursday that another level could soon be built above the West Wing Colonnade—the iconic columned walkway connecting the Oval Office to the Executive Residence at the White House.
— Is the White House’s West Wing the next to be torn down? Trump’s ballroom architect told America this week that he has big plans for the West Wing as well as replacing the now-torn-down East Wing with a gaudy, Russian-style ballroom.
