The White House — once the shining symbol of American democracy — now stands figuratively in ruins. The wrecking ball has swung hard, not just against the walls of an institution, but against the very ideals that built it. Once a home to courage, humility, and public service, it is being replaced by a garish ballroom — a shrine to wealth and self-glorification.
This wrecking ball is not a relic of a gilded age, but a cruel new symbol of reverse Robin Hood — giving to the ultra-rich while taking from the poor. Millions now rely on food pantries to survive in the shadow of opulence. The spiritual heart of America — once guided by compassion, justice, and shared purpose — has been replaced by a hollow faith in greed.
Perhaps the Native peoples were right: “White man speaks with forked tongue.” What was promised as greatness has become a monument to excess — a tragic testimony to the demolition of our democracy.
