Trump's Triumphal Hubris: A Monolith to Ego The Commission of Fine Arts has given its approval for a 250 foot tall triumphal arch near Arlington National Cemetery.
This project, championed by President Donald Trump as a way to commemorate America's 250th anniversary, is the latest in a string of approvals granted by Trump's handpicked arts commission.
Critics argue that this massive arch will be less a tribute to American history than an exercise in self aggrandizement.
