Donald Trump reportedly wants the arch he is planning to build in Washington DC to dwarf the Lincoln Memorial.
The US president envision the planned arch to be a height of 250ft, or significantly taller than the 100ft-tall Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Post reported on Saturday. It would also be significantly taller than Paris’s 164ft-tall Arc de Triomphe – but less than half the height than the Gateway Arch in St Louis, Missouri, the world’s tallest arch.
The Post reported that Trump has his eye on a plot of land near Memorial Bridge over the Potomac River, citing two people who are familiar with the plans and spoke to the outlet on the condition of anonymity.
The latest proposed addition to the Washington skyline comes as Trump is already constructing a new East Wing to the White House containing a ballroom. At 89,000 sq ft, the new ballroom is supposed to be larger than the White House’s 55,000-sq-ft footprint, at the same 70ft height.
See this irks me, because if I was in charge, I’d want to spur the economy by building giant cool shit too. Course, I’m thinking more like the Colossus of Rhodes, or those two giant mountain king statues from LOTR (Argonath). But anything that could be seen as a monument to this absolute vile traitor, is too much. After he’s imprisoned and dies his pathetic lil death, that name should be stripped from all records, buildings, everything. His name, forever synonymous with a repulsive pathetic evil clown.
TACO Don barely finished a wall, barely finished that white house construction, continues to just spend American dollars and put this country more into debt.
that barely finished white house construction is already in the middle of building a billion dollar underground bunker able to with stand nukes and a angry mob for the current furher
Not a surprise to anyone. Even if it said trump reportedly wants a 250ft penis errected and named trumps boner, that would be no surprise. What I am surprised by is that he hasn’t demolished mt Rushmore to put his face there yet.
He’s sending a message. He has no intention of leaving power, and his family will rule us for a long time.
If that thing gets built, I look forward to it getting dynamited by the next administration. :)
Just make it a public toilet
Yeah, why help struggling Americans when he can waste money on dumb shit like this?
What’s wild is that he sicced an “investigation” on the Fed over their reconstruction.
He hasn’t even built that stupid ballroom that he tore down like 1/3 of the White House to force funding for. One boondoggle at a time dumbass.
I will only agree to this if there is a huge “TRUMP” brand on both sides, constantly lit up night and day by power sucking Klieg lights. “Gild it!” (that should go without saying). /s
I hope he does that too and without sarcasm. I want it to be the biggest, ugliest, trashiest piece of shit in DC. A legacy to the trailer trash POS president.
Sure. We can name it the Donald J. Trump Jeffrey Epstein Child Raping and Murdering Memorial Arch… since he’s not being prosecuted - like he should be. I used to be Republican. I left under W. Bush because of the BS Neocon warmongering and eventually became a progressive as I grew older and realized that people’s lives are more important than ideals. I know that’s a loaded statement, but I don’t feel like writing a book to explain it. My only reason for stating that is this: if you’re a Republican and you’ve seen the accusations released in the Epstein files this week and you’re NOT demanding an investigation of EVERY individual that EVER went to an Epstein event of ANY kind - DO NOT LIE TO ME AND CALL YOURSELF A CHRISTIAN, A PATRIOT, OR A GOOD PARENT. Because you are None of the above. If you don’t want Trump investigated after the things he was acused of while Epstein was alive? You’re sick and need to stay away from healthy humans, especially children and babies. Blind support of someone accused of inserting his fingers into little girls to “judge their tightness” is a goddamned mental illness. Maybe he didn’t do it, but we won’t know until he’s investigated fully by a bipartisan 3rd party organization that he isn’t in charge of!
Glad you left the Darker Side. We have better cookies.
Futurama almost got it right.
As a voter and a taxpayer, I’m waiting on some important concessions before I can support this. Were Trump, for example, hoisted in front of the arch by a crane and dropped from the top into an inflatable kiddie pool filled with cottage cheese, this could become an important and beautiful landmark for D.C.

You know what? I can get behind a tyrannical triumphal arch in DC. If a president ever turns tyrant, we can hang them from it, Mussolini-style.
If?
Whoosh.
Ain’t nothing wrong with a traditional gas station forecourt.
And the stories you could tell your grandkids.
“I was there, I got a little cottage cheese on me.”
It’s not the best idea, since it’s completely indistinguishable from the contents of his head.
I think it’d be better without the kiddie pool
But then where would you put the cottage cheese?
Damn good point
Cottage cheese is nasty. Skip that too.
But that’s the whole point. You won’t be the one covered in cottage cheese.
I would not even wish cottage cheese on my worst enemy. It is a ln abomination of dairy product.
I’m all for it, except without the kiddie pool.
Sir, may I have just one teensy crumb of healthcare?
Best I can do is have you lie down in a ditch and die
How much is my copay?
All of it
copayI receive: All of your money
You receive: A slow, miserable death
So basically, regular USA.
Can confirm
Ditches aren’t free, you know.
Though if you insist I guess I could rent you a shove.
If your country’s poverty rate isn’t zero and you rely on deficit spending, you cannot afford an arch. At this point we should be selling monuments to pay for healthcare!
This sounds like a Tropico voice line.
Wouldn’t it just be easier to send the National Guard to St. Louis to procure their arch?
It’s where they will hide his used diapers and the Epstein files.
