Republican Bill Proposes Adding Trump's Face to Mount Rushmore
Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna introduced legislation to honor Donald Trump alongside four iconic presidents on the South Dakota monument.
- Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) introduced a bill calling for Donald Trump's face to be carved into Mount Rushmore, citing his 'remarkable accomplishments' and ongoing impact.
- The proposal follows discussions on Fox News, where panelists endorsed the idea as a tribute to Trump’s legacy and suggested it could coincide with the U.S. 250th anniversary in 2026.
- Critics argue the bill is symbolic and unlikely to pass Congress, with many viewing it as a gesture of loyalty to Trump rather than a serious legislative effort.
- Trump has previously joked about being added to Mount Rushmore but expressed concerns about potential backlash over the idea.
- Native American groups continue to oppose the monument itself, citing its construction on sacred land as a symbol of historical injustices.
