It&#8217;s so beautiful, I&#8217;m not giving it back. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s supposed to go back, but they&#8217;re gonna have to fight like hell to get it back,&#8221; Trump said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was not immediately clear whether the president was speaking entirely in jest, and there has been no indication that the NYSE bell will remain at the White House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Latest In Series Of Similar Jokes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The remark follows several similar episodes in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last month, Olympic speed skating champion Jordan Stolz placed one of his gold medals around Trump&#8217;s neck during an event in Wisconsin. Trump joked that he was &#8220;keeping it&#8221; before returning the medal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He made a similar quip after FIFA President Gianni Infantino brought the FIFA World Cup trophy to the White House ahead of next year&#8217;s tournament, later saying FIFA had permitted the trophy to remain on display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ballroom Project Draws Renewed Attention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump&#8217;s latest comments also focused attention on the White House ballroom project, one of the administration&#8217;s most ambitious renovation efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ballroom, originally projected to cost about $200 million, has since grown substantially in scope. Recent reports indicate estimated costs have risen to roughly $600 million, though the administration disputes claims that taxpayers will bear a significant portion of the expense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The White House has said the ballroom will provide a secure venue for large state functions and official events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Critics Question Costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Democrats and preservation groups have continued criticizing the project, arguing the administration understated its expected cost and failed to adequately explain how construction will ultimately be financed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The White House has maintained that private donors are funding much of the project and has defended the renovation as a long-overdue modernization of the executive mansion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether Trump&#8217;s comments about the NYSE bell were serious or simply another off-the-cuff joke, they quickly became the latest flashpoint in the broader debate surrounding the president&#8217;s efforts to reshape the White House during his second term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/americanliberty.news\/crime\/former-florida-democrat-andrew-gillum-arrested-on-drug-charges-in-alabama\/phouck\/2026\/07\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Former Democrat Star Arrested On Drug Charges<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class= \"house-ad\"><center><p class= \"sponsored\">Sponsored<\/p><strong><span style=\" color:#ff0004\" class=\" has-inline-color has-text-align-center\"><a href= \"https:\/\/secure.winred.com\/trump-national-committee-jfc\/lp-prsp-email-supporter-status-v2-s1-db?utm_term=[trackingcode]&#038;source_code=[trackingcode]\">Have you abandoned MAGA too?
