Step aside, St. Louis, there’s a new, greater, and more beautiful arch coming to town (ok fine, it’s coming to D.C.).
White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt announced that the official plans for President Trump’s Triumphal Arch will be submitted on Thursday.
“The United States triumphal arch will be outfitted with beautiful artwork and depictions celebrating the success of the American people over our 250-year history and the enduring triumph of the American spirit,” Leavitt said, calling the project an “architectural masterpiece to celebrate our history.”
“Great nations build beautiful structures that cultivate national pride and love of country, and this triumphal arch should be a project that all Americans, all political persuasions, can support,” she said of the structure that will be erected in Memorial Circle on Columbia Island across from the Lincoln Memorial, The Hill reported.
President Trump shared details of the plans with White House ballroom donors in October.

Generally it’s a good idea to wait more than three days after you lose a war to a terrorist gas station before you announce your “triumphal” arch.
That fucking thing will never get built. I will put my body in front of the bulldozers.

Yawn.
Judging from the unhinged responses, “The Arch De Trump” will need to be protected, likely for years to come.
For sure. You just lit libtards hair on
