A hardcore MAGA congresswoman introduced a bill to have President Donald Trump’s head carved into Mt. Rushmore. Florida Rep. Anna Paulina announced the bill Tuesday in a statement on X and said that Trump’s “remarkable accomplishments for our country and the success he will continue to deliver deserve the highest recognition and honor on this iconic national monument.” The bill was introduced after a Fox News panel floated the idea. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) said he also supported the addition of Trump to the monument because the president “is transforming the United States of America and putting America first.” After Trump’s first inauguration in 2017, then-South Dakota Rep. Kristi Noem (R) said Trump told her it was his “dream” to have his face carved on the monument. She said, “he was totally serious.” Trump has publicly denied wanting to be added to Mt. Rushmore because he feared expressing the idea would result in “such bad publicity.”
