Everything else aside, it’s just incredibly distasteful (understatement) to slap your own name on somebody else’s memorial. Who TF thinks this is a good look?
Trashy and shitty is the whole brand! I’m surprised he didn’t have his name made 5x larger and spraypainted gold, complete with vinyl sticker of Calvin pissing on JFK’s line.
What next, the Vietnam war and Donald j trump memorial?
Come on. Don’t be ridiculous.
He wouldn’t put his name second.
Don’t give him ideas.
I mean, if he’s dumb enough to link his name to the Vietnam war, let him.
I don’t think the intent is to make the center look good - it’s to humiliate.
I personally think it’s a fragile man trying to create a legacy. It’s kinda just stolen valor but with buildings
The two aren’t mutually exclusive. Consider certain graffiti. The person tagging a building doesn’t think that he is improving it. Rather, he is showing that he has the power to put his name on places where other people don’t want it. In doing so, he asserts dominance. That’s what legacy is in a zero-sum mindset where success must mean someone else’s failure - a record of whom he defeated.
The revisions also feature a provision saying the president can be appointed as the chief executive officer and can be compensated for the position.
So he’s making money off this. What a surprise.
This was also illegal.
Takes an act of Congress to rename it anyway.
Ditto Department of Defense
Congress doesn’t seem to do anything to stop him so why would he care?
You really think Congress should be focusing on name change debates right now? Really? It’s distraction and your first thought is to chase squirrels?
Can’t they do both? (I mean I know they can’t/won’t/whatever)
What’s possible and what’s likely are two separate things. Could they? Sure. Will they? No.
LOL, WUT.
Cartoonish
I don’t get what the big deal about this is.
It’s a monument for a dead president… WTF do you mean what’s the big deal?
Trump might be hollow and dead inside but he ain’t dead dead.
