President Donald Trump is getting hammered by critics on social media after he branded the White House a “shit house” while boasting about his planned $400 million ballroom.

“I was told by my wife you have to act presidential, so don’t use foul language. I won’t, therefore — normally, I would have said it was a shit house, but I don’t want to say that,” Trump said at a dinner for law enforcement officials in the Rose Garden on Monday.

Trump went on to brag about all the renovations he has done since retaking the presidency.

″...This place is tippy top now. Including all the brand new beautiful stone – I paid for it myself – all of the stone, all of the different things we have, and we’re bringing the White House back to shape,” Trump said.

As if right on cue, the president launched into yet another rant about his ballroom, which Senate Republicans have proposed funding at $1 billion in their latest reconciliation bill, despite Trump repeatedly saying the project would use no taxpayer dollars.

“And the big thing is we’re building a ballroom in the back,” Trump said. “Which will be, I think, the most beautiful ballroom anywhere in the world.”

Social media users were quick to jump on not only the tenor of Trump’s statements, but the hypocrisy of conservatives, suggesting they would have flipped their lids if such comments had been made by President Barack Obama or President Joe Biden:

Just hurt my head imagining the right-wing outrage if Obama or Biden called the White House a "shit house." https://t.co/BGC0YZ4tSm

Can you imagine if Obama called the White House a “shit house” after saying “praise Allah” on Easter as he tries to build a $1B ballroom during a reckless war with Iran that is raising prices on Americans while he enriches himself?Right-wing media would secede from the union. https://t.co/aEHfqDrYuL

Only a shithole President would call the White House "a shit house!" Trump is a disgrace!! He HATES America. https://t.co/ZpAWdTEoIE

Both of my parents had (vascular) dementia. I was their sole caregiver. Dad passed away my first week there, followed by my mom 5 months later - she was mobile and verbal until her last week, when she had a stroke.One of the real "tells" is when she swore. Hearing my mom say… https://t.co/0q8FAoGgP4

Laughing from Canada. Hey, you knew what you were getting when you reelected him. My heart does not break for you, America.🤷🏻♂️ https://t.co/EmOZWMQgiB

Very unclassy and very disrespectful to the White House! This is the people's house not a Con Man's squatting place and calling the White House s "Shit House is wrong and stupid! https://t.co/GpwRe9OtT7

I think there’s a very good chance that he doesn’t remember being president for a full term before Biden https://t.co/Y1mQVF6yEi
