The idea behind it is beautiful. But it's always been sorta ugly and shitty. Trump just took it from a meh 6/10 to a SOILD 2/10.

But the entire point of monuments is the ideas, concepts and representation. Not the actual piece it self.

I am just amazed he didn't paint TRUMP on the bottom.

I doubt he’d go that far. He’d paint it directly on the spire, much more visible.
