White House Asked If Trump Could Be Added to Mount Rushmore

“Do you know it’s my dream to have my face on Mount Rushmore?” the president said to South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem

In 2019, White House aides reached out to the governor of South Dakota and asked about the process of adding additional presidents to Mount Rushmore, a Republican official familiar with the conversation told the New York Times.

So, when the president arrived last month for his July fourth festivities, the governor of the state, Kristi Noem, presented Trump with a four-foot replica of Mount Rushmore that included his face.

Adding to the already odd ask is the fact that the federal government is in charge of such matters, not the state, and the National Park Service has addressed the subject several times with a hard no, citing instability to the structure making it impossible to make additions.

In a 2018 interview, Noem says that Trump told her that it was a “dream” of his to be carved into the mountain.

Noem told South Dakota’s Argus Leader that during a White House visit, Trump said to her: “‘Kristi, come on over here. Shake my hand.'” The governor continued, “I shook his hand, and I said, ‘Mr. President, you should come to South Dakota sometime. We have Mount Rushmore.’ And he goes, ‘Do you know it’s my dream to have my face on Mount Rushmore?’ I started laughing. He wasn’t laughing, so he was totally serious.”

Because of Trump’s mountain-sized ego, none of this is a surprise. He often suggests that his tenure might be equal to or better than past presidents. In June, the president tried to diminish the accomplishments of Abraham Lincoln, while praising himself. Trump has also boasted that he’s a “far greater” president than Ronald Reagan was.

President Donald Trump To Be Added To Mount Rushmore

The U.S. House voted unanimously to add President Donald Trump to Mount Rushmore.

Government contractors have already been contacted, and they can complete the project in less than three months, sources said. The unveiling will be sometime this summer if everything goes as planned.

“This will truly be a groundbreaking event, and the Mount Rushmore National Memorial is already expecting record breaking crowds,” sources explained.

I mean, this is the political board man.

Do you take the same tack when people talk about football in the football board?

I haven’t been here long. Since there has been no football since I arrived; the answer here is no. I can’t recall anyone being so overly obsessed on any AU football board I post on except for a few who constantly call for Gus to be fired. Yes, when someone is so obsessive on their displeasure me and some others mention it.
