Trump on Architecture

Political leaders who order a certain style of buildings to reflect their beliefs include Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini.  And now, of course, Trump.  There is a draft executive order entitled “Make Federal Buildings Beautiful Again” that would direct the use of traditional or classical architectural styles for nearly all new federal buildings.

Deviations from this style would have to go to a presidential “re-beautification” committee.

This from a man who thinks the Trump Tower and Mar-a-Lago are architectural masterpieces.  


I never cease to be amazed.
