Donald Trump is facing multiple lawsuits over his plan to construct an arch to honor himself and block Arlington National Cemetery. Since the president is an old dog with no tricks, he appears to have adopted the same stunt that he used to justify his ballroom.

Trump wants to convert an arch into a military complex.
The president posted on Truth Social:
At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage.
There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World. Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Trump’s idea is absolutely bonkers. Washington, D.C. does not need an arch that acts as a military complex, and it is being immediately called out as crazy.
