Heard that Mt. Rushmore would be the last surviving man made object if humans were to disappear for no reason in the future due to its geography, weather and the type of stone that its made of. Meaning that if President Trump were to be added, he will be the last evidence of Human civilization.
Woman I was dating before the 2016 election started getting woke and said that toilet paper takes 500 years to dissolve. She claimed she read it in a book so it had to be true. I tried explaining that it was wood pulp and it dissolves before it makes it to the waste water plant or it goes into the septic tank and is consumed by bacteria in days. She could not be convinced otherwise. Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Well she is partially correct. The cellulose fibers that make up toilet paper will last for centuries but they are microscopic after the toilet paper is dissolved in water. Certain bacteria can also eat the cellulose but that doesn't happen till it enters the septic tank or waste treatment plant. This is why the left is so hard to knock off their stances because they were fed a half truth wrapped in an elaborate lie.
Did some research to refresh my memory. Turns out the monument will still be recognizable for at least 1 million years (granite is tough af especially due to conditions on the mountain)
Nah, it's just the cocaine, for men such as you cocaine can be destructive, but he was born in it, shaped by it, cocaine is his fuel and source of strenght.
Not sure if anyone knows this, but behind Mt. Rushmore is a time capsule of every important US document in existence laying out the entire history of our civilization. It's quite fascinating
That is pretty amazing. That reminds me of the old and proud Americans who loved the Republic so much that they went to the extent to do this. Now that America is coming back and I am truly excited.
There is a great documentary on the guy who designed and created Mt. Rushmore, also created Stone Mountain in Georgia, which of course the lefties want to destroy cause muh confederacy. He had more plans for the little chamber that exists behind the heads, but of course passed away. Here is the doc, I enjoyed it a lot:

I think I like the unfinished version better. But I agree, we’ll need GEOTUS added once he has completed his mission of prying our country out of the iron grip of the global communists.
Wow, that looks really nice actually. Kinda surprising, like finding out Greek statues were painted bright colors (not white) or the pyramids were white and gold before it was stolen over the years.
No one disagrees with that. If Trump kills the commie insurrection, the media, and the deep state, re establishes: iron clad fair voting and turns over the reigns of power to a rejuvenated republic, he is probably a close #2
Fair argument and I’m not going to say you’re wrong but politely I don’t think George Washington can be exceeded in any practical circumstance as the greatest President. Taking back our republic would put Trump in the conversation for sure though.
Oh yeah. In fact, that spot was the original plan for Jefferson until it was discovered that it was too soft, requiring a complete rework of the plan. Those giant cracks there go really deep, which iirc is why Teddy is set back so far as well.
But iirc, it wasn't modern engineers or geologists who determined this though; it was the original sculptor. Basically, to do this type of sculpture you have to be a talented artist, an engineer, and a geologist. The guy was a genius, and if we're being real that's probably the biggest issue with adding on or even finishing this sculpture: modern artists just don't measure up.
I have no idea, I don't think they ever went that far. Improbable that it would work, considering the makeup of that mountain. On the backside giant chunks of it are falling off, but I don't know how deep the formation they carved goes.
But since you're interested I might as well add there are a bunch of these giant stone formations in South Dakota--this wasn't even the first proposed site for the sculpture. The issue was the locals at the time: they didn't realize how much of a boon it would be, and bought into some bs about how it would "destroy their mountains." I suspect this would be less of a barrier today. The town that turned it down is still a weird little backwater, while the town outside Rushmore is a tourist center that makes millions a year and you can see Washington's face from there.
So, in my own personal opinion, I think we should start carving up those mountains. Make a chunk of the Black Hills our statue park of American heroes, with towering sculptures everywhere of all sorts of people.
In a perfect world, yes absolutely we need to add Trump. I think in a realistic world we’d probably have to add some other presidents too to “balance” it or whatever BS. Which if that is the case maybe add Trump and JFK? I can’t really think of a dem/left President to add because they all suck. Even JFK for all his positives shouldn’t be added lol
reminder that ronald reagan is one of a few reasons why california today is a hard blue state, and the original mass immigration president who dumped us into the mess we're in today with demographic change which led to immigrants accounting for a third of all democrat votes or something, which in itself has flipped God-knows how many fucking seats. if you want to affect any change in the GOP, reaganism needs to be completely and totally ditched
No, I find it too funny that even though the Democrats are the oldest political party in the world they still don't have a President on Mt. Rushmore, and I intend to keep it that way. Even though I've got a bit of a soft spot for Jackson.
(Seriously, count up the party representation there, and chuckle to yourself with glee once you see it.)
They'll probably want to delete Lincoln and add Obama. My state's college already wants to take down their Lincoln statue. (which, every year before this one, had been part of a good luck tradition for finals and graduation picture traditions, now they hate it?)
because if people look into lincoln too much they'd find out that Lincoln planned to deport all the slaves after freeing them before he was killed, & the idea of trying to assimilate them was unthinkable at the time
I say he should be above all the the others, and they use that picture of him (think it's the Art of the Deal cover photo, or possibly an Apprentice advert) where he has his hands spread out on the desk. Might kind of look disrespectful to the rest, though, but would also be badass
We haven’t gotten the ruling we need yet for that to be confirmed. We don’t know if we’ll have a country when the left rises up given their propensity for arson.
If it were up to me, I’d say construction should begin the moment Trump’s hand touches the Bible for inauguration. EO that shit
Trouble is Mt Rushmore is fractured granite and there's limited space to add anybody.
The obvious solution is to give President Trump his own mountain.
Add a Trump statue in the middle of Death Valley so everyone going there to fuck it up will die trying.
And let their bones bleach in the sun as a reminder of your fate when trying to fuck up America.
Not mentioning his phenomenal first 4 years(best four years I'v e seen in my lifetime and throughout hystory), If he managed to deal with the dems and start delivering justice and death penalties, abolishing the fbi/cia, revoking msm and tech protections whilst jailing them and/or killing them if found treasonous; Then Trump will up there with the founding fathers and earn a the title of the greatest republic figure in modern time.
Heard that Mt. Rushmore would be the last surviving man made object if humans were to disappear for no reason in the future due to its geography, weather and the type of stone that its made of. Meaning that if President Trump were to be added, he will be the last evidence of Human civilization.
Well yeah Trump and Plastic.
Trump, plastic, and Keith Richards.
You repeated yourself
"Plastic, ASSHOLES!"
George Carlin on the Earth and Plastic (4:07, plastic part starts around 3:20, but the whole thing describes modern envirowackos to a T)

Nothing could break wood down for 50 million years and it just piled up. A fungus finally evolved to break it down.
Hopefully you hit it n quit it
Something like that
Cher is plastic
and toxic
Melania.
And my AXE!
Dwarven relics are another category entirely.
And my hairy legs that the little kids pull on
I just ate Thanksgiving left overs and threw up a bit in the back of my throat. Jenner mentions shoulds have a NSFL tag
Did some research to refresh my memory. Turns out the monument will still be recognizable for at least 1 million years (granite is tough af especially due to conditions on the mountain)
and my wife’s new kitchen countertops...now that purchase makes sense.
Anatomically modern humans aren't even a million years old.
Oh yeah and plastic xD. I think plastic was intentionally left out because, well, its plastic
Nah, it's just the cocaine, for men such as you cocaine can be destructive, but he was born in it, shaped by it, cocaine is his fuel and source of strenght.
Well, we finally figured out where Snowflame went off to after his all too short comic book gig...
</Geek joke>
I'm sorry I don't understand.
A very short-lived cocaine-powered supervillain from the 80s.
That sounds super funny.
I want to know more.
He came here to confirm judges and rip lines, and he's never going to run out of lines.
Or that he's simply a cockroach.
Like Moses, McConnel is preserved by the Lord for the great duty of leading his people out of Democrat bondage.
Wow. What could possibly go wrong with that!
Plastic bacteria exterminators.
I'm betting mother nature is coming up with a solution for plastic. It's relatively new on the scene so it's taking a bit to figure out how to eat it.
Not sure if anyone knows this, but behind Mt. Rushmore is a time capsule of every important US document in existence laying out the entire history of our civilization. It's quite fascinating
That is pretty amazing. That reminds me of the old and proud Americans who loved the Republic so much that they went to the extent to do this. Now that America is coming back and I am truly excited.
Same. The America that stood proud of our accomplishments, and honored our forefathers.
The leftist America wants to destroy Mt. Rushmore, and any statute of our forefathers.
There is a great documentary on the guy who designed and created Mt. Rushmore, also created Stone Mountain in Georgia, which of course the lefties want to destroy cause muh confederacy. He had more plans for the little chamber that exists behind the heads, but of course passed away. Here is the doc, I enjoyed it a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luPhBb6vYtg&ab_channel=BestDocumentary
This YT channel got the opportunity to explore behind the heads, def a good follow up video for my original comment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t_aMLFkMmY&t=1s&ab_channel=What%27sInside%3F
I learn something new here every day
And the lost city of gold. They even made a movie on it.
I heard the left is building a monument for Biden called Mount Touchmore
Perfection.
Think I saw that in Richie Rich
We have to do it.
people already doubt they're man made
I bet stone mountain will last a long time.
I support this.
But don't you think if they are gonna modify mt rushmore they might as well finish the rest of what they started first?
Was there meant to be more work they didn't finish? The likenesses are complete.
Yes Mt Rushmore was supposed to look like this.
Wow. I had no idea.
The more you know! I don't mind the actual version of it, they pulled it off tremendously for something that's unfinished.
I think I like the unfinished version better. But I agree, we’ll need GEOTUS added once he has completed his mission of prying our country out of the iron grip of the global communists.
Don't worry he will be there. He is the greatest thing that has happened to this world through human history!!
Yeah, typical Congress couldn’t get the funding approved. So it’s still sitting in its half-finished state.
I always heard they had to stop because they discovered the cracks in the rock that would have made the whole thing unstable if they finished
I haven’t heard that, but I think I’d prefer that reality.
If that is the case, maybe we could find another mountain for the next set of the "greats" (starting with Trump).
I don’t think there’s enough room to do that. It’s all loose rock just below their faces
Wow, that looks really nice actually. Kinda surprising, like finding out Greek statues were painted bright colors (not white) or the pyramids were white and gold before it was stolen over the years.
I knew about the Pyramids and the limestone but not the greek statues.
Kinda cool to know, changes my view of ancient greece from being uniformed black and white to all nice and pretty.
Fascinating
Let's do it... let's Make America Greater Still
They were supposed to have full bodies. Looks pretty dope actually.
Why did they pick those four? How do you qualify for Mount Rush(four)more(year)?
Like Washington's bigass dick?
If he crosses the Rubicon and saves the Republic, then yes, he will be America’s Caesar and the greatest president since Washington.
No one disagrees with that. If Trump kills the commie insurrection, the media, and the deep state, re establishes: iron clad fair voting and turns over the reigns of power to a rejuvenated republic, he is probably a close #2
Fair argument and I’m not going to say you’re wrong but politely I don’t think George Washington can be exceeded in any practical circumstance as the greatest President. Taking back our republic would put Trump in the conversation for sure though.
I'd rather prefer him crossing the Delaware than the Rubicon, you know, what with Rubicon being in Italy and Italy not being in the US an all, lol.
Metaphorically.
I know full well, just wanted to shitpost
Should of stopped talking there.
Mount Rushmore was a cover-up to hide the Olmec City of Gold Cíbola from the Confederates. Doesn't anyone National Treasure around here?
Yes! It’s one of my favorite documentaries. Glad someone else here remembers history!
Unironically love that movie.
Jon Voight approves this message.
Hahahahaha
NOOOOOOO!!!!!!
... Because that side of the mountain is too soft to support sculpture: he's got to be right of Lincoln.
^ yup. Came here to say this. This is correct.
Besides, that would be a lot more balanced from an artistic standpoint
I am assuming the engineers and geologist have already deemed what can and cant be done to the Mt. at this point?
Oh yeah. In fact, that spot was the original plan for Jefferson until it was discovered that it was too soft, requiring a complete rework of the plan. Those giant cracks there go really deep, which iirc is why Teddy is set back so far as well.
But iirc, it wasn't modern engineers or geologists who determined this though; it was the original sculptor. Basically, to do this type of sculpture you have to be a talented artist, an engineer, and a geologist. The guy was a genius, and if we're being real that's probably the biggest issue with adding on or even finishing this sculpture: modern artists just don't measure up.
What about up above and behind could they add a another row of presidents like Reagan eisenhower, trump, Grant, etc?
I have no idea, I don't think they ever went that far. Improbable that it would work, considering the makeup of that mountain. On the backside giant chunks of it are falling off, but I don't know how deep the formation they carved goes.
But since you're interested I might as well add there are a bunch of these giant stone formations in South Dakota--this wasn't even the first proposed site for the sculpture. The issue was the locals at the time: they didn't realize how much of a boon it would be, and bought into some bs about how it would "destroy their mountains." I suspect this would be less of a barrier today.

Which if that is the case maybe add Trump and JFK? I can’t really think of a dem/left President to add because they all suck. Even JFK for all his positives shouldn’t be added lol
I'd be willing to throw Reagan on the other end to balance it out.
Lol I think the communist half if the country would die from hyperventilating after Reeeeing lol. Good call.
It's ok, they'll never make the trip to South Dakota, I doubt any of them could point to where Mt. Rushmore is on a map.
reminder that ronald reagan is one of a few reasons why california today is a hard blue state, and the original mass immigration president who dumped us into the mess we're in today with demographic change which led to immigrants accounting for a third of all democrat votes or something, which in itself has flipped God-knows how many fucking seats. if you want to affect any change in the GOP, reaganism needs to be completely and totally ditched
Andrew Jackson maybe ? his story is kind of similar to Trump
No, I find it too funny that even though the Democrats are the oldest political party in the world they still don't have a President on Mt. Rushmore, and I intend to keep it that way. Even though I've got a bit of a soft spot for Jackson.
(Seriously, count up the party representation there, and chuckle to yourself with glee once you see it.)
Unaffiliated, Democratic-Republican Party/Whig, Republican, Republican
Andrew Jackson was a WAY different person compared to today's Democrats. Remember this was also years before the Republican Party was born.
I fuck with JFK for the simple fact that he went after the intelligence community and the CIA. They had too much control, we see it now with the FBI.
They'll probably want to delete Lincoln and add Obama. My state's college already wants to take down their Lincoln statue. (which, every year before this one, had been part of a good luck tradition for finals and graduation picture traditions, now they hate it?)
https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020/10/29/u-of-wisconsin-madison-student-government-votes-to-remove-racist-abraham-lincoln-statue/
Lol Lincoln statue is racist yet Lincoln was the one that freed the slaves, it's a little depressing people my age and younger don't even know this.
because if people look into lincoln too much they'd find out that Lincoln planned to deport all the slaves after freeing them before he was killed, & the idea of trying to assimilate them was unthinkable at the time
Statue of someone they probably don't even know who they are. They did the same to Hans Christian Heg during the “protests”
“Balance”
That’s how the Eisenhower dollars got started. They felt it was fair to put a Republican President on coinage since Kennedy was on the half dollar.
And then they got rid of him later for Susan B Anthony
Trump deserves his own damn mountain.
This is the correct answer.
"We're not anywhere near Mount Rushmore."
"I brought a picture for you."
"There they are, Albert. Faces of stone!"
"We are gonna need a far larger mountain."
He should have his own mountain.
1000%
I want trump on Mt Rushmore but he should be to the right of Lincoln. It even looks like him a little bit already. Proposed spot in image is retarded.
Trumps spot is actually to the right, his hair is already there
If the fraud is on the scale we suspect, with foreign states in acts of war,
subverting the election, trying to get a puppet president in place.
Then Trump's actions are comparable to winning a big war and saving the country.
Yes he would deserve it for that.
He hasn’t saved it, yet. The day he does, bust out the motherfucking chisels.
Right. We need to stop the steal first.
Stop The Steal infrastructure, wiki, chat.
I say he should be above all the the others, and they use that picture of him (think it's the Art of the Deal cover photo, or possibly an Apprentice advert) where he has his hands spread out on the desk. Might kind of look disrespectful to the rest, though, but would also be badass
We haven’t gotten the ruling we need yet for that to be confirmed. We don’t know if we’ll have a country when the left rises up given their propensity for arson.
If it were up to me, I’d say construction should begin the moment Trump’s hand touches the Bible for inauguration. EO that shit
On top in complete solid gold
Why don't we just make a new monument for Trump? Why add him to a historical monument? There's plenty of limestone structures in South Dakota ;)
Do it already. Will I have to ride there and carve it myself?
Can't we just get the man his own mountain?
Add Reagan while we're at it.
And Eisenhower.
Trouble is Mt Rushmore is fractured granite and there's limited space to add anybody.
The obvious solution is to give President Trump his own mountain.
No. Trump is easily the greatest president, but we shouldn’t worship politicians.
Only our Lord should be idolized
Dam, I was just 1776 upvote!!!
As hard as it would be, I would rather see him about the same size along side the others, not huge and of on his own.
I really like the idea of him having his own section.
You know, I fully support this.
I think Mt Rushmore should remain as is. Something else should be done for Trump.
Add a Trump statue in the middle of Death Valley so everyone going there to fuck it up will die trying. And let their bones bleach in the sun as a reminder of your fate when trying to fuck up America.
It must happen first, or Rushmore is a mere relic of republic passed.
But YES.
I'm surprised at how vehemently I feel this. Trump must avert a shooting war on domestic soil.
Not mentioning his phenomenal first 4 years(best four years I'v e seen in my lifetime and throughout hystory), If he managed to deal with the dems and start delivering justice and death penalties, abolishing the fbi/cia, revoking msm and tech protections whilst jailing them and/or killing them if found treasonous; Then Trump will up there with the founding fathers and earn a the title of the greatest republic figure in modern time.
I love this idea!!!
2 terms... Work starts on the 21st
TIL our republic has been saved
Oh, hell yeah!
Sneaky way to mine for upvotes. Who could disagree with putting the greatest President ever on Mount Rushmore?
Take my money!!!
Mount Rushmore? no. Too far away.
We need a large monument in DC, and another one in President Trump Park (formerly Central Park), NYC
I was a little disappointed when I saw how big the faces are. Trump needs his own mountain to be carved that’s at least twice as big as those faces.
We need another mountain with Obama, Biden, Brennan & the rest for people to do potshots!
Hell yeah.
Lol!! We were just talking about that on Thanksgiving! I agree, he should be added
Pepe Too
Yes! President Trump should be on Mount Rushmore!
