I’m actually okay with this because it’s bizarro and devalues the assholes already on the mountain. Good let’s reveal the farce for what it is!

Adding another genocidal colonizer on a colonizer monument beside other genocidal colonizers.

Yawn.

I will only support putting Donald Trump on Mount Rushmore if you then proceed to push him off.

[–] gnate 7 points 21 hours ago

I initially read it as "Donald Trump to be put under Mount Rushmore"

[–] spiderhamster 2 points 16 hours ago

Okay, but the important question becomes: what does that bastard land in/on? I vote for a pool of sharks because of Shark Tank.

I feel like Stone Mountain would be more appropriate

I mean, we’ve got two slave owners up there, why not throw up a sexual predator too?

By the popular, via the people, of the person.

Definitely what a sane party and not a cult of personality would do.

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree 6 points 19 hours ago

Fuck this shit hole country. Can’t wait for the inevitable collapse.

with the message: “Let’s get carving.”

Surely she meant "Carve, baby, carve"?

Is he also going to let Elon build a secret base inside where he can fly inside with a big ass car plane while JD Vance sucks Elons cock to prove he's loyal? And they're all puppets?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

I don’t think that will work.

I watched a show on the history channel, the aliens live inside the mountains already.

[–] friend_of_satan 3 points 20 hours ago

Poor Team America, replaced by illegal aliens.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 18 hours ago

No, t's not going to work because Elon's penis is too small.

[–] foggy 6 points 22 hours ago

Holy fucking shit no way

Serious?

Holy shit.

This is the funniest fucking thing. I hope they put some really tiny hands on the cliffs.

Y'all sure get excited about "introduced" bills. Does no one know how our legislatures work?!

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey 18 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Well one, the GOP has control of both chambers, so nothing that gets introduced, no matter how dumb, is safe from passing through votes from both. Especially as none of them want to directly piss off Trump.

And two, even if this has zero chance of passing, it's still a beyond absurd performative piece of legislation playing up the already inflated ego of a megalomaniac who is surrounded by sycophants and brown nosing opportunists constantly seeking to further puff up the already inflated orange head of an objectively weird, stupid, selfish, hateful criminal for the chance to earn some bit of his favor and maybe absorb some of his power and influence in the process. If that sort of openly unethical and cultish behavior from a sitting congressperson is not worth getting "excited" about, what is?
