Trump Plans Triumphal Arch for DC

I’m okay with this.

Anything to distract from other presidents.

Maybe he should start working on his tomb -- a pyramid, perhaps?

Hey, we’re cutting healthcare and driving up costs, but here’s a shiny new object for you!

Any day now, I expect a Germania-like plan for DC, replete with statues of Donald Trump on every corner.

This looks familiar.

At least it's not a Turkmenistan-style giant gold statue of himself (yet)

So he's dying, huh?

I like the drive-through arches. This should be drive through so someone can blow up a truck bomb dead centre.

Building a tacky copy of L’Arc de Triomphe is a pathetic move. The sad thing is all he has to do is snap his fingers and obedient billionaires will pay for it because he is 1) for sale and 2) a vindictive cunt.

It wiould be known to history as The Arch of Graft.

With his insecurities I'd have just assumed he'd have gone for a taller more obviously phallic Washington monument.

Going to Paris was one of the worst things that could have happened to Trump. He wants to be sexy Macron. But he's really just a bad Napoleon.

If they build it out of veneers and plastics, fine. We can gather together by the 10s and push it over.

They'll build the whole thing from gold spray-painted foam embellishments from Home Depot, just like they did the oval office. It'll probably blow over in the first rainstorm.

I found this on the internet. It was posted in April.

I'm wondering if the angel on top is the Archangel Michael defeating Satan. Which figure will be endowed with a countenance suggesting that of T-Rump? Maybe both?

Where's my puke trough?

They put some cut-rate pomo-looking arches in the WWII memorial—that's enough arches.

This shows how people think differently. My first thought was a Paris-like Champs-Élysées axis.

That was my first thought, too, R19!

As a planned capital city, DC already has a monumental street layout designed by Pierre L’Enfant
