Tech YouTuber JerryRigEverything has been outspoken about the current presidential administration, and now, he's coming for Trump for 'destroying the White House'.
President Trump's time in office has been marked by controversial decisions that have repeatedly drawn criticism from unexpected quarters. But recent weeks have been particularly turbulent as just a few days ago, Trump delivered an ultimatum to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during an explosive meeting about ending the war in Ukraine.
He also responded dismissively to Russia's proposed tunnel connecting Alaska and Siberia, laughing off the ambitious infrastructure pitch during the same diplomatic encounter.

More recently, Trump faced backlash for how he addressed the death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.
During what was supposed to be a moment of reflection about Kirk's assassination during his American Comeback Tour, Trump instead pivoted to announcing plans for a new White House ballroom.
Kimmel's mockery of that moment led to his temporary cancellation, as several public figures who made light of Kirk's death faced severe professional consequences, including job losses.
However, the late-night host returned to the air a week later to record viewership numbers, with possibly the controversy boosting public interest in his show.
Now, construction is officially underway on Trump's controversial White House expansion.
Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok confirmed the scope of the project: "President Trump has approved a $250 million project to build a new ballroom in the East Wing, prompting the demolition of non-historic facade sections."

The president is now facing criticism from tech YouTuber Zack Nelson, better known as JerryRigEverything.
"Can you imagine if Biden or Obama started demolishing the Whitehouse? Wtf," Nelson posted on X in response to the update of the demolition project.
The comment quickly went viral, with some users agreeing the project was inappropriate while others defended it as routine maintenance.
"Oh no! Construction and renovation…" one user replied.
"Can you imagine if they made something better [...] the horror!" another argued.
"The White House has gone through many renovations in its history. Not abnormal," a third commenter noted while a fourth user claimed: "Isn't the government shut down right now? Aren't they supposed to have no money to spend?"
Nelson has built his YouTube fame around his unique 'teardown' of tech, covering everything from scratching iPhone and Nintendo Switch 2 screens to reviewing the 'world's fastest Tesla.'
But beyond tech reviews, Nelson has developed a reputation for being outspoken about political issues, particularly those involving the Trump administration.
In another post, he posted the same picture with the caption: "Hey Congress - somebody is vandalizing the whitehouse. Can we get some impeachment proceedings underway?"
