WASHINGTON – A new National Park Service report backs President Donald Trump’s proposed arch, despite what it says are adverse effects to the sightline between a host of iconic landmarks in Washington, including the Washington Monument and Lincoln and Jefferson memorials.

The report released Friday says the 250-foot-tall (76-meter) memorial arch is likely to disrupt the historical significance of dozens of sites near its planned location adjacent to Memorial Bridge.

    I can see that donnie is focused on the important work for the American people. 🙄

    What’s the rush, donnie? If you are so wonderful, you wouldn’t have to build these monuments to yourself, others would gladly do it after you’re gone.

    If that stupid thing gets built, we need to sell raffle tickets in the next administration to who gets to push the trigger on the demolition.
