Donald Trump To Be Put on Mount Rushmore Under Republican Bill
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/24891753
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.
So a single sycophantic congresswoman from Florida introduces a bill with no budget, no analysis on its feasibility, and no widespread interest from the Republican base; a bill that hasn't even gone to committee, yet alone be eligible for a vote; and you think that equals "they have the votes for it"?
Jesus fucking Christ, take a few minutes to learn just the bare fucking basics of how the government works. There's a Schoolhouse Rock video that even explains it nicely in song form.
ANY congressperson can submit a bill for anything. It doesn't take much at all. Tomorrow a congressperson could submit a bill saying that nails are illegal and all meat products are to be replaced by stone figurines of Marie Antoinette. It doesn't mean anything! Congresspeople create this kind of crap literally all the time! It's not worth talking about until it has slightly more than a snowball's chance in hell of having support.
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!
Mount Rushmore was intentionally done to insult Lakota/Dakota people anyway. The “Six Grandfathers” were sacred, and Mount Rushmore was intentional defacement and sacrilege.
It has that look of tacky art that you can tell always was made for a hollow purpose
Haven’t the Lakota people suffered enough?
Well clearly no.
" How can we keep distracting from implementing Project 2025?? "
...silly shit like this is a distraction - shit like the email that just went out to every federal employee encouraging them to resign is where the potential for damage is. Today.
I hate this fucking country.
I just hate republicans, really.
Might wanna throw in the non voters too. They heavily contributed to this mess.
Yeah there's some great shit here, for now.
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.
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.
Putting the face of a living and sitting president is bad enough, the fact that its him. thats already gross vandalism
Would it be worse than a klan member sculpting four ugly mugs on a sacred site?
have you been to hole in the rock in phoenix? vandalizing it is the city's pasttime
Surely this will bring down the price of eggs
Sounds like a great idea.
A constant reminder for the US for centuries to come.
I think it is a fantastic idea because they will hire a shit contractor who is completely incapable and they will either do a laughably bad job or they will just take the money and run, whatever happens is gonna be hilarious...
s/reminder/warning/
Enough sed.
The actions America has taken the last 10 years should never be forgotten, like a Hans-Landa Swastika cut into ones forehead as a mark of shame.
Adding another genocidal colonizer on a colonizer monument beside other genocidal colonizers.
Yawn.
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 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"
Okay, but the important question becomes: what does that bastard land in/on? I vote for a pool of sharks because of Shark Tank.
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!
Might as well put Hitler there beside him.
Putin, nibbling his ear.
Couldn't we just carve a mustache on Trump?
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?
with the message: “Let’s get carving.”
Surely she meant "Carve, baby, carve"?
By the popular, via the people, of the person.
The Gettin’ mine address.
I mean, we’ve got two slave owners up there, why not throw up a sexual predator too?
It is like a bunch of babbling drunks now
Be a great place for some RPG practice
I'll be there with a chisel and spraypaint.
Definitely what a sane party and not a cult of personality would do.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
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.
I feel like Stone Mountain would be more appropriate
Add him to the laser show.
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?
I don’t think that will work.
I watched a show on the history channel, the aliens live inside the mountains already.
Poor Team America, replaced by illegal aliens.
No, t's not going to work because Elon's penis is too small.
Fuck this shit hole country. Can’t wait for the inevitable collapse.
🙃
Lol
To serve as a historic mocking of DNC incompetence in losing a race they could have chosen to win, I'd be in favor of it being carved. I assume Trump is collecting gofundme donations for this.
What do you bet they try to put him on our currency as well. Maybe a 3 dollar bill, or a new half-cent coin.
Y'all sure get excited about "introduced" bills. Does no one know how our legislatures work?!
Well one, the GOP has control of both chambers, so nothing that gets introduced, no matter how dumb, is safe from passing through votes from both. Especially as none of them want to directly piss off Trump.
And two, even if this has zero chance of passing, it's still a beyond absurd performative piece of legislation playing up the already inflated ego of a megalomaniac who is surrounded by sycophants and brown nosing opportunists constantly seeking to further puff up the already inflated orange head of an objectively weird, stupid, selfish, hateful criminal for the chance to earn some bit of his favor and maybe absorb some of his power and influence in the process. If that sort of openly unethical and cultish behavior from a sitting congressperson is not worth getting "excited" about, what is?
You got bodied...lmfao
call the police, but not for me
