The notion of carving President Donald Trump’s face into the granite side of South Dakota’s Mount Rushmore is gaining traction, and it’s about time someone took action. Representative Anna Paulina Luna of Florida is stepping up to the plate, announcing legislation to make this monumentally magnificent concept a reality. This initiative comes after former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski planted the seed during an interview on the Benny Johnson Show, proving once more that the best ideas often come from bold thinkers who aren’t afraid to stir the pot.
🚨Corey Lewandowski calls for President Trump’s face to be put on Mount Rushmore:
“What are we waiting on? Donald Trump's face should be on Mt. Rushmore. We got the votes. Trump’s gonna sign it. Let's get it done. To memorialize what this man's achieved for this country.” pic.twitter.com/0fbIC2OpYf

When Luna revealed her plan to push for Trump’s likeness on the iconic monument, social media was ablaze with enthusiasm. One comment captured the sentiment perfectly, suggesting that the Democrats would undoubtedly whine for years if this were to happen. And what’s more entertaining than watching the left throw a tantrum over something so wonderfully American? Another user chimed in, calling the plan “badass,” because what could be more fitting than honoring a president who made America great again in a way that only the boldest of proposals can?
The National Park Service’s description of Mount Rushmore celebrates the visionary presidents already immortalized there: Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt, and Lincoln. Apparently, these individuals were deemed the most significant figures in American history by artist Gutzon Borglum, but one has to wonder if Trump’s impact on the nation might just rival that of these founding fathers and great leaders. After all, he transformed the political landscape, and his policies resonated with millions, proving that he might just deserve a place among those celebrated on the Black Hills.
In a twist of irony, back in 2020, Trump himself dismissed speculation about adding his face to the mountain. He stated he had never formally suggested such a thing, but he certainly didn’t shy away from the idea that it could be quite fitting. Given the astounding accomplishments of his presidency, no wonder he thought it might be justified. It’s almost poetic that a president who achieved so much in just over three years would ponder the honor of being immortalized in stone alongside the giants of American history.
Meanwhile, the left is grasping at straws in an attempt to reclaim some relevance. Representative Nancy Pelosi recently suggested that current President Joe Biden should also be considered for a spot on Mount Rushmore. One can only imagine the backlash from the millions who remember Biden’s endless blunders and weak leadership. While Democrats cling to their heroes of mediocrity, supporters of Trump have a golden opportunity to see a true titan on that grand mountain, delivering a sharp dose of reality to the opposition—one chiseling at a time.
