Is $200M spent on a new ballroom for the White House a good use of taxpayer dollars?

When Nero was emperor of Rome, he built himself a Golden Palace (Domus Aurea) in the middle of Rome with gardens and vineyards and grounds that extended for hundreds of acres. Some sources say the building contained hundreds of rooms.

And when Nero was dead, his golden palace
was buried after his death to erase his legacy. His successors stripped the palace of valuables and filled it with earth to build over it with new structures, such as the Baths of Titus and the Baths of Trajan.
The Colosseum was built on Nero's lake.

When tRump is gone, I foresee a similar erasure of his golden ballroom and restoration of Jackie Kennedy's Rose Garden.
