A bill to add a carving of President Donald Trumpto Mount Rushmore has been introduced by a MAGA politician.
Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna announced the bill Tuesday calling for Trump to be added to the South Dakota monument with the message: “Let’s get carving.”
I mean this won’t happen, but I kinda threw up in my mouth a little bit.
The one thing keeping me sane is the realization that that old crusty piece of shit will be dead soon, and I’ll never have to see their rapist face again.
What makes you think it won’t happen? They have the votes for it.
The rockface isn’t actually sufficently stable to survive adding a 5th face.
They try to add Trumpo, they’re very likely to end up with NO faces.
So yeah, I doubt they’d actually go through with it.
In that case fuck yeah let’s go
At that point might as well just do it Taliban style. A row of tanks shoot at it until the mountain is just a mountain again.
Thanks for the little bit of science that says this won’t happen. It makes me feel better.
I’m just hopeful enough that ‘If you do this, you stand a very very good chance of completely destroying a national monument.’ is enough to get at least a few of the less-nutty Republicans to balk.
If nothing else, we love our monuments and symbols, and destroying one to put his face on it is proooobbbbaaaallllllly too far, still.
Better yet, they will, and the whole abomination will crumble.
Reminds me of an old Isaac Asimov story.
There’s a floating city called Atlantis. It’s the headquarters of the tyranny. One insider figures out a way to sabotage the place and crash it, using the leader’s own vanity against him.
“Shah Guido G.”
You’re saying you think Trump will not only understand that and not insist on doing it anyway?
Imagine if his own face fell off the mountain and crushed him and jd at the opening ceremony.
Ahahahahahaha
Oh my gosh, this would be amazing. I hope they fuck the entire thing up. It shouldn’t be there in the first place.
What if they make the trump face very very small?
It’s just Republicans trolling after Nancy pants said Joe should be on Mount Rushmore.
Nancy didn’t actually say that did she?
Her exact words were
such a consequential President of the United States, a Mount Rushmore kind of President
You have Teddy Roosevelt up there and he’s wonderful. I don’t say take him down. But you can add Biden
I understand more and more how Kamala lost by letting these freaks run her campaign
I fucking projectile vomited! This cult needs to be stopped.
i expected some nut to propose this. surprised it took this long, actually.
Hooray, more bullshit bills purely for the purposes of signalling!
Haven’t the Lakota people suffered enough?
Well clearly no.
Adding another genocidal colonizer on a colonizer monument beside other genocidal colonizers.
Yawn.
Surely this will bring down the price of eggs
It would be vandalized very quickly, which could be a nice outlet for a lot of people.
With time it would probably turn orange from all the piss too.
As much as I like the thought, I’ve been to Mt. Rushmore and I don’t think vandalizing it would be easily achieved. Maybe with a drone or paintball gun - the first time - after that I think they’d be prepared. There is national parks apparatus surrounding it IIRC.
You think they’re gonna not defund the National parks service? They’re basically the “don’t ruin nature” police, and the people in charge now don’t fucking care about nature.
Conversely, do you think they’re going to let people fire RPGs at it?
Can we just not vandalize our national moments though?
Native Americans: “am I a joke to you?”
A carving of Trumps face is hardly a national monument anymore than a statue of Lenin or Saddam Hussein was.
Would it be worse than a klan member sculpting four ugly mugs on a sacred site?
Who is this “Republican Bill” fella?
Florida’s best and brightest they sent to DC to represent themselves, Anna Paulina Luna, the same certified genius who tried to expunge the Trump impeachments for extorting a foreign leader to influence US elections by withholding Congress approved resources, and inciting a failed insurrection and disenfranchising American citizens from their votes in federal elections.
I’m actually okay with this because it’s bizarro and devalues the assholes already on the mountain. Good let’s reveal the farce for what it is!
I will only support putting Donald Trump on Mount Rushmore if you then proceed to push him off.
I initially read it as “Donald Trump to be put under Mount Rushmore”
Might as well put Hitler there beside him.
Putin, nibbling his ear.
They’re taking the piss at this point.
He would only sign it if they carved away all the other faces to have only his on the whole mountain. He doesn’t share.
Is this not the onion? Am I hallucinating from smoking weed or some weird shit? What the fuck?
Is he also going to let Elon build a secret base inside where he can fly inside with a big ass car plane while JD Vance sucks Elons cock to prove he’s loyal? And they’re all puppets?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Holy fucking shit no way
Serious?
Holy shit.
This is the funniest fucking thing. I hope they put some really tiny hands on the cliffs.
