Authoritarian states frequently use architecture as a form of propaganda. That's why Nazi Germany was obsessed with monumentalism, and why the Moscow subway is so extravagantly ornamental. The Great Hall of the People in China is no different. But even China isn't this bold: the Hall is a conference space, legislative assembly, and office space, not a ballroom.
that is how it has always been. Whatever it is he does or says is meaningless because it's all bait/garbage. It's that THOSE people listen to it, and it is far worse than anything he does.
Just like his pedo arch, Nazi Germany also wantend a great hall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkshalle He literally tries to copy Germanys nazi architecture plans.
The phlegmy slur in his speech has increased lately, I think his dementia is beginning to affect his ability to swallow. Surprised we haven't caught him dribbling from the mouth on camera yet.
Communism is an idealistic concept. 'Each gives what they can and takes what they need'. BUT, there are too many lazy and greedy people for it to work. That's why communism tends to drift into totalitarianism.

I won't be surprised if he starts having a pyramid built for his eternal rest, which can't come soon enough.
