Crockett trolls Trump–again!
Recent demolition photos of the East Wing, which went viral this week, show major renovations already underway. The timing of the project has drawn sharp criticism, especially as 25 states are expected to suspend SNAP benefits in November, leaving many families uncertain about where their next meal will come from.
Crockett captioned the post with a biting remark: “Families can’t afford groceries but sure, let’s build a ballroom.”
The parody quickly gained traction online, with many users applauding the congresswoman’s choice of song and its pointed commentary on political priorities.
The lyrics — “Come and listen to a story ‘bout a man named Jed, poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed” — resonated with viewers who saw irony in celebrating luxury while millions struggle with rising costs and halted assistance programs.
While the White House has not commented on the project, the images of construction juxtaposed with the ongoing shutdown have fueled outrage, reinforcing public perception of a widening gap between Washington’s leadership and the everyday struggles of American families.
Users online have responded to Crockett and Trump’s back and forth.
Trump’s demolition derby on the White House is the perfect metaphor for his ego-fueled assault on our democracy, let’s boot this wannabe dictator before he razes the rest of what makes America great.— Richard Angwin (@RichardAngwin) October 23, 2025
Others chimed in on the demolition and how reflective it is of his recent behavior.
