Question:
What about the bunker under the East Wing?

(PEOC, PEE-ock) is a bunker underneath the East Wing of the White House. It serves as a secure shelter and communications center for the president of the United States and others in case of an emergency.

In one week Trump:
1) Sent out a video of himself as King dropping shit all over Americans
2) Released the survivors he called drug smugglers of the boat he bombed
3) Bulldozed the WH
4) Announced he’s going to take $230M from taxpayers
5) Is soliciting sex to his staff at OMB at MarLago
