      Sternly worded letter and some social media posts to fundraise for the next campaign cycle.

      They’ll file a lawsuit after it’s demolished and find out in 4-6 years the statue shouldn’t have been demolished.

      The admin will say it was a matter of national interest to be demolished, supreme court will give them a double thumbs up, and well - what could have been done.

        *national security

        Trump is exploiting all of the “except for an emergency” language in our laws. He just claims everything is an emergency no matter how stupid it is. The courts, in their extremely limited wisdom, long ago decided that there was no way for them to determine what a valid emergency was and just defers to the executive.

        Im surprised we didn’t just wake up to the news it was scrapped for the copper overnight and the money is going to a hotel he plans to build in its place.

          It’s obvious the money would go to cover a gold plated statue of himself giving a double thumbs up.

          The plaque will be replaced with:

          “Give me your whites, your rich, your business class looking to exploit the poor”

          This of course assumes there’d be anything so poetic inscribed. More likely it would read:

          “Poor? Desperate? Foreign? Turn back now or be shot on sight”

        You forgot that Trump will pre-emptively pardon himself and everyone involved, and so nobody will ever be held accountable or face any consequences.
