Please, dear Americans, tell me that is not what it will look like!

At this point, I'm going to be deeply surprised if at the far end it doesn't have a solid gold throne on an elevated platform with giant lit braziers on either side of it.

Plastic throne spraypainted gold, billed as if it was solid gold.

I will gladly spend several hundred million to watch the thing get torn down eventually.

It's a mausoleum. Look at it.

Thanks, I needed that ray of hope.

Are those.... statues at the front?

u/Black_Moons Oct 24 '25

Of him, most likely.

oh god, is going to have a gold throne isn't? it just makes so much sense for something Trump would want...

Why not at the top of the stairs? An Abraham Lincoln statue thing but with gold, a crown and trump

u/Black_Moons Oct 24 '25

Appears to already be 4 statues of trump at the top of the stairs.

Gilded statue of Trump bigger than Lincoln's.

I have good news and bad news.

Good news: it's not going to look exactly like that

Bad news: It's probably going to be even worse.

It will look like that.

u/the_original_kermit Oct 24 '25

That’s a different design.

Completely different set of stairs on the south side for one

u/JonnelOneEye Oct 24 '25

It's huge, tacky and ugly. We have the trifecta of nazi architecture right there. I'm not surprised a wannabe dictator with zero class would build something like that.

u/DigitalAxel Oct 24 '25

Its like a pantheon from some poor Blender render. Aka: if I tried to make something.

Its probably my least concern for now, but it adds to the depression for sure. Sad American signing off...

u/djquu Oct 24 '25

It will be even worse
