President Donald Trump did not dispute that he is building monuments to himself amid his architectural blitz in Washington, DC, saying in a recent interview that “nobody will do it once I’m gone.”
A generation after the Civil War, the Daughters of the Confederacy blanketed the country, and especially the South, with monuments to the traitors who fought and died for slavery.
Yes, I expect we’ll find both the money and the will to build monuments to this abrasive corrupt man, this shrill soulless void of ego and need, this vile abuser of women and children, this screeching embodiment of our worst qualities.

If they do, I hope it’s the same caliber as other confederate monuments.
I’ve heard that sometimes monuments are a bit like flock cameras, and they just fall over for no obvious reason. It’s a real shame, but there you go.
Trump tippin’?
Need to treat all Trump/MAGA memorabilia like Germans treat Nazi memorabilia- completely outlawed, with stiff penalties for possession.
