The rapper said he assumed he would be performing inside and was surprised to learn otherwise, comparing the outdoor setup to a backyard cookout.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump has pitched the ballroom project as a long-overdue addition that would give the White House a permanent indoor venue for state dinners, diplomatic receptions and performances, while also improving security for large gatherings.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/homebuyerrelocation.com\/?p=4941\">Eight found dead in Michigan home following fire, some with gunshot wounds<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The security argument gained fresh weight after the White House correspondents\u2019 dinner was interrupted in April, when a gunman rushed a security checkpoint at the Washington Hilton in an attempt to reach Mr. Trump and Cabinet officials before being stopped by the Secret Service.
