WASHINGTON D.C. (Enviro Snowflake Brief)— A White House source revealed President Donald J. Trump was so inspired after visiting Mount Rushmore last weekend he directed the Department of Interior to commission design plans for a sculptor to carve the rock in the Grand Canyon honoring his favorite strongmen- himself, Putin, and Turkey’s Erdoğan.
Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, responded to the New York Times article on Fox News insisting President Trump is always brainstorming his great ideas for America.
“The final scope of the design will feature our great President, who will posthumously stand-alone for the indelible mark he’s leaving on the United States of America, along with a few of his friends,” said Meadows.
The White House source provided more color on the genesis of trump’s monument idea explaining the idea for a Mount Rushmore type monument came to trump when he received a call from Putin (speed dial on personal cell) shortly before his uplifting speech at Mount Rushmore.
“Putin saw live video of trump at Mount Rushmore, while doing his ab ripper workout, and called trump to tell him ‘Donald I belong up on one of your mountains, if you don’t want to be a 2020 loser’.”
Trump also received a second call, from Sean Hannity, moments before his Rushmore speech, who told the President, “As the greatest President ever, it doesn’t seem right that your handsome face is not immortalized on a mountain.” Thus, the idea was cemented with trump.
The White House source said that by the time trump boarded Air Force One in South Dakota he called Interior Secretary Bernhardt to order design plans to “build my monument” – trump in the middle (much larger), flanked by Putin and Erdoğan.
President Trump was conflicted not including China’s Xi Jinping, but said it would be a political misstep, “I love the guy, but he’s my scapegoat for the Kung Flu.”
The one delay to finalizing the design for trump’s “strongman monument” is internal staff debate on Stephen Miller’s lobbying for Hitler, but the NYT’s source believes the compromise is to include North Korea’s Kim Jong-un.
