Fact Check: Is Donald Trump 'Destroying' the White House, as Hillary Clinton Claims?

It was a claim you probably saw echoed around numerous parts of social media if you pay attention to these sorts of things: President Donald Trump was destroying the White House to remake it in his own image.

Those claims can generally be dismissed out of hand, but when the former secretary of State, first lady, and 2016 Democratic Party standard-bearer for president makes those claims, attention must be paid.

As you’ve probably heard, the East Wing of the White House is currently undergoing renovation. What Hillary Rodham Clinton wants you to believe is that he is, in fact, “destroying” it.
