(AFP file photo) US President Donald Trump has called a court ruling halting work on his planned White House ballroom a “ Disgrace", vowing to take the fight to the Supreme Court. Trump made the remarks after a US appeals court on Friday upheld an order stopping construction of the proposed ballroom, saying the project requires explicit approval from Congress. “This decision, made after much of the work has been done and paid for, is a Security Threat at the highest level.
