Can Trump’s White House ballroom top China’s vast Great Hall of the People?
US president says the under-construction ballroom will outdo its Beijing counterpart, despite being a fraction of the size
Speaking at a Republican midterm convention in Dallas last week, Trump described the Great Hall of the People – China’s most prestigious venue for legislative and ceremonial events – as “a serious hall”.
“This is a very large hall, but we’re going to top it. You know, we’re going to top it,” Trump said.
Trump stood inside the central Beijing landmark just months earlier.
