GEOTUS says via Executive Order: Stop building ugly-ass federal buildings and get back to designing and making beautiful structures that reflect our values! This is a very important rejection of post-modernist aesthetics and therefore post-modernist moral relativism. GEOTUS teaches history!

My dear, departed architect father worked on famous Brutalist modern buildings. He WOULD APPRECIATE this EO. Thank you, President Trump!
Trump made his name in real estate. He gets it. It will be interesting to see lefties hate this. What do you think they will say? Let me guess: “Trump want ‘classical architecture and beauty’. Here is why that is racist.”
"Trump requires all public buildings to have gold toilet seats."
Architecture designed by colonizers and built by slaves probably.
I figured they would go for a simple "he wants to waste your tax dollars on fancy buildings"
That would be plan B after the rayyycisss attacks fail
E. Michael Jones does a great interview on YouTube on how terrible modern architecture has become. I know many people here hate the guy but he's right about modern architecture.
This. I saw this in a doc i was watching and it was soo true, just flat squares and rectangles and shit. Makes everything blend together.
STABLE GENIUS

The Federalist has run several great articles on the trash architecture in federal buildings.
How about just stop building federal buildings?
Can we just not give the government growing space?
Let them keep one building. Now downsize until all employees can fit in it.
I'd like a government that could fit in a Waffle House.
Yes, the built a big ugly thing in St. Louis... even blocks what was once a beautiful view of the Arch driving in from the west toward the city... think they call it the "big pink penis" or some such...
This has more importance than some people might realize
So many of us have been hoping something could be done about this UGLY ARCHITECTURE! It makes everyone feel grim, which is the point I guess.
See: Brazilia the modern architecture marvel of the Amazon that everyone mocks.
