    Remarkable. I know a lot of you conservatives think highly of Trump. Obviously we will have differences of opinion as to whether Trump belongs up there. But do you think a sitting president should make inquiries about adding himself to Mount Rushmore? Doesn't that sound a bit shocking to you?

    He said it's his dream to be on Mount Rushmore and I'm sure every president thought the same thing.

    I truly believe Trump could be a great president if the left didn't attempt to block everything he doing or blame their own mistakes on him.

    Beyond ridiculous.

    Trump on Mt. Rushmore?:roflol:

    Trump is a mentally-unstable MORON.

    The GOP really needs to rid themselves of Trump (once and for all).

    After Trump Loses to Biden, the GOP really needs to make sure that Trump doesn't try to "Pull a Grover Cleveland" and run again in '24.

    I highly doubt this is true but Trump does indeed have a big enough ego.

    However why would Trump reach out to South Dakota when Mount Rushmore is under the jurisdiction of the National Parks Service?

    Because he is an IDIOT.

    Keep him off Rushmore. Some crazy lib would probably try and hijack a plane and fly into it.

    Great Presidents accept responsibility. 3rd rate Presidents try to blame everyone but themselves for everything.

    Trump on the right, Putin on the left; both contributed to making American great again.

    He’ also traveled extensively and been to 57 states; he would have been to 60 but was not allowed to go to Alaska.
    Oh... was it not Trump but some other IDIOT? :juggle:

    This is the third time Trump has been divorced, this time from reality. Mount Rushmore contains four of our most effective, enlightened presidents. Trump is, um... neither.

    rumor has Mt Everest as one the possible sites :)

    Lol...trump can use the bones of all the people he killed with the trump virus to build a new mountain for his face. Of course, he’ll want to name it trump mountain. The gift shop at the base can sell all his crap made in China.

    I read that it took 2-3 years to finish each face on Rushmore-but with todays strict OSHA regulations it would probably take closer to 10 years now.

    So construction should start asap.

    LOL

    Factoring in the unions and there will be strikes every three weeks so it would take at least 20 years. Then of course the permits. the paperwork, the paperwork to order the needed paperwork and the paperwork needed to request more paperwork because the previous paperwork was lost in the mail. So at this rate Trump may be on Mount Rushmore just in time for his great great grandchild's college graduation. Isn't government great!

    Yea it might better to select a mountain in China, so that the Antifa will not be triggered to attempt to dynamite Mt Everest, and instead, they will get arrested by the Chi Coms for illegal entry and sent to labor camp
