"Get going!" -- Trump urges the South Dakota governor to get him on Mount Rushmore

JFC! Everyone in that room are the same type of spineless idiots who bowed & worshipped the naked King & told him how beautiful his new clothes were! Can you imagine being in a position to need to “trust” anything these people would say!

If I was the governor of SD, I sacrifice my political career just to tell him ‘Fuck You’ in a setting where it would be broadcast around the world before dinner was on the table.

Look, lets just go with his name on a headstone or mausoleum on one of his golf courses next. It can have an eternal flame powered by his rotting diapers.

Hilarity of returning to expand Rushmore rhetoric is it always overlooks the fact it was the personal work of a sculptor & his son from 1927 to 1941 on land illegally taken from Sioux in 1870s. They & engineering firms charged with monitoring stability say it's not suitable for additional carvings.

I wish that governor would just breakout and ask, "Why? Did you get a terminal diagnosis?" Or telling him: "We'll put it up after you're gone. I promise."

Yeah she's awful. I can't mention her name to my husband, & he can't mention her dad's to me. There's a great candidate running against her, Fred Love. He has experience in the state legislature, and is smart and impressive. But people aren't getting traction and publicity in these small red states.

I hope he does… it’s been surveyed addi g a new face would probably damage the entire site. It would be epic to watch the whole thing crumble off the mountain returning it to nature.

I saw a report from a custodian there who confirmed that the structure is hollow and would collapse if they tried to add another face. Especially one with an ego as huge as Trump's.

It's worse (or better depending on one's POV) than that. Go to Google Earth and look at Rushmore from above. You'll see there is a deep canyon running behind the faces. There literally is no mountain left to attach a face to.

Trump's not joking. The destruction of the East Wing and the arch in Arlington make that clear. He is an egomaniac, surrounded by toadies and sycophants who enable his destructive impulses and cater to his ego.

He is so pathetic. He knows he will go down in history as one of the worst presidents, so he's looking for any way that he could have some sort of legacy. Mt. Rushmore? Ugh. Annexing Canada/Greenland? Idiotic. Adding his name to the Kennedy Centre? Unhinged...

In his head, he’s thinking of building a fence around Mt. Rushmore, declare that it’s closed for renovations, & throw a tarp over it. When the tarp is removed, it’ll only be IQ47’s face. Don’t laugh. This is exactly the way his Dark Tetrad mind thinks. He’s confessing to it.

Sadly, if they took a poll I’ll bet an overwhelming majority of South Dakotans would support adding Trump to Mt Rushmore. Signed, someone born and grew up in SD and still have family there.

They *should* add Trump to Mt Rushmore. About 3 feet tall, wearing a tiny crown and a diaper, yelling at the sky, like a gargoyle. Squeezed between the cheeks of the other Great White Fathers.

That monument is an atrocity, frankly. What hubris. Honoring former presidents is easily done without it. I'd rather that South Dakota be given back to the Sioux Nation (Oceti Sakowin) and let them decide what to do with that monument. They'd probably let it decay. No effort. Let time do its work.

He knows he will be on NOTHING. He knows no monuments, no statues, no plaques will ever be created in “honor of” or in “memory of” so he wants to bastardize that which already exists. His mind is the ONLY place where his likeness = greatness.

Seeing Huckabee Sanders with that fake laugh is the cringiest thing I've seen all week. Especially with the giant crucifix necklace. Ofc, the others weren't much less embarrassing. Shoutout to jrRFK for missing his cue, though. Don't think Natalie hasn't marked that down in her little black book.

The man thanked Trump for his “common sense leadership” 🤡 & naturally Trump sought something in return. He’s always transactional. Weird. But expected of Dictators.

Rump’s meeting with Cabinet members reminds me of North Koreans clapping wildly in unison for Dear Leader. It’s embarrassing for some of us!
