The Obama shrine looks like it's going to cost more than Trump's
ballroom
but at least taxpayers didn't pay for Obama's shrine. All the people Obama
helped out (as opposed to us) paid for it.

Obama says he wants his $850 million Obama Presidential Center, slated to open in June, “to put my presidency in context” — and in a sense, that’s what the shrine does. Its sponsor list is context for a presidency that promised hope and change and then used a massive electoral mandate to deliver more of the same. Indeed, the list is a who’s who of the winners of the Obama era: tech moguls, financial giants, telecom behemoths, a health insurance giant, and other bold-faced names of the oligarchy.
