The President of the United States has renamed a memorial building in our Nation’s Capital to honor himself. This egomaniacal act has been relegated to the back pages of the major news outlets as if it were a normal occurrence. Perhaps if he erected a neon Trump sign atop the Washington Monument, or a bust of himself on Lincoln’s shoulder, would the people rise up in their disgust. But no, it seems the President has no limit to his crass degradation of our Nation’s institutions, landmarks, and history – and the media and the people seem to accept this as normal. I know that This Too Shall Pass, but I for one will do whatever I can to hurry it along. I am outraged.
