President Donald Trump unveiled his latest plans linked to his extensive White House renovation scheme.<\/a><\/p>\n

President Trump announced that he would supervise the building of an enormous arch to commemorate the United States’ 250th anniversary.<\/a><\/p>\n

It will reportedly replicate the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, with the White House planning to name the architectural feature the “Arc de Trump.”<\/p>\n

The declaration was made in the East Room on Wednesday to a packed audience of donors who had funded the 90,000-square-foot White House ballroom.<\/p>\n

The president desires the colossal arch built opposite the Lincoln Memorial at the gateway to the Arlington Memorial Bridge, according to a presentation he delivered to donors using miniature models of the structures, reports the Mirror US.<\/a><\/p>\n

“That’s Arlington Memorial Bridge,” Trump said. “And at the end of it, you have a circle that was built 150 years ago. You have two columns on one side, two columns on the other, yet in the middle, just a circle.”<\/p>\n

“And everyone in the past had said something was supposed to be built there. But a thing called the Civil War interfered. That’s a good reason.”<\/p>\n

President Trump also revealed that a contentious statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee had been proposed for the location over a century ago.<\/p>\n

“In 1902, they were going to put a statue of Robert E. Lee up – would have been okay with me,” he explained.<\/p>\n

Trump’s domestic spending bill, signed into law in July, is projected to add approximately $3 trillion to the national debt and reduce $4.6 trillion in tax revenue over the next decade.<\/p>\n

It also eliminated more than $1.2 trillion in spending on Medicaid and SNAP, both programmes that chiefly support low-income residents.<\/p>\n

The bill earmarked $40 million for the National Garden of American Heroes, a sculpture garden proposed by Trump.<\/p>\n

The United States Treasury recently revealed preliminary designs for a $1 commemorative coin featuring Trump’s face and the words, “Fight, fight, fight.”<\/p>\n

The coin is being produced by the U.S. Mint in advance of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.<\/p>\n

The concept of honouring Trump alongside celebrations of the nation’s history isn’t a novel idea.<\/p>\n

In June, Trump organised a military parade through the streets of Washington, D. C. to commemorate both the 250th anniversary of the Army and his own 79th birthday.<\/p>\n

The military estimated that the parade cost between $25 million to $40 million.<\/p>\n

The commemorative coins will accompany other symbolic displays of Trump’s power and influence in official federal spaces. Last month, enormous banners featuring Trump’s face adorned federal buildings in the nation’s capital, leading some Democratic lawmakers to draw comparisons with the blatant displays of authoritarian propaganda seen under leaders such as Kim Jong Un, Benito Mussolini and Saddam Hussein.<\/p>\n

The banners are merely one of Trump’s initiatives since regaining the presidency this year to remodel the nation’s capital in his image.<\/p>\n

This includes a \u00a3200 million White House ballroom refurbishment, a federal law enforcement crackdown on alleged “out of control” crime in Washington, and the military parade in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"President Donald Trump unveiled his latest plans linked to his extensive White House renovation scheme.
