Gotta focus attention and resources on monuments to that one special someone...
Lapses in upkeep and repairs at prominent D.C. memorials and more than 400 national park properties nationwide come as the Trump administration has cut the agency’s staff by about 25 percent and withheld millions in funding.
D.C. monuments sit in the dark as national park repairs lag nationwide
The lapse in upkeep comes at a time of reduced staffing and as Trump pursues projects in the nation’s capital, including overhauling East Potomac Golf Links.

What if we build monuments to nothing just to make ourselves feel like the kind of people who achieve things worth building monuments to. This is healthy right.

Trump and Hitler want these monuments because they think it shapes how they’ll be remembered. AND THEY’RE RIGHT.
I really hate the faux-savvy idea that the ballroom and Kennedy Center are "aesthetic"!
Do we think that the founders of this country would have considered the president building himself a series of kingly palaces and monuments only aesthetic? Or perhaps some kind of deeper offense to republicanism

And I genuinely think stuff that may read more as aesthetic, like the ballroom and the arch and the Kennedy Center and tearing down the east wing, that stuff all contributed to the general sense among even many of his previous voters that there’s something deeply fucked up about these guys.

A bunch of libs are taking monuments lit up for Alzheimer’s awareness as a sign of support for democrats, because just like MAGA, they think the world revolves around them.

Trump just went into semi-retirement to concentrate on his monuments, and effectively appointed Stephen Miller, an ideological nazi, his Prime Minister.

If you ignore all the monuments, I think my answer has to be a particularly perilous set of stairs.
What's the most famous film/TV location near to you?
For me it's probably On Her Majesty's Secret Service. The scenes shot in Bern are quite close by, and the Piz Gloria/Lauterbrunnen scenes are a short-ish drive (& cable car) away.

This is what he cares about. Mostly: erasure. He does not see his legacy in his children. He sees it in the monuments. Which is why they should come down as soon as possible. Scrubbed. Demolished.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump signs a proclamation that he says will prevent future changes to the Oval Office and Cabinet Room.

“That’s true,” Trump said. “Nobody will do it once I’m gone. When I leave here, nobody will.”
