A bill to add a carving of President Donald Trumpto Mount Rushmore has been introduced by a MAGA politician.
Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna announced the bill Tuesday calling for Trump to be added to the South Dakota monument with the message: “Let’s get carving.”
They do not have the votes. There’s still the filibuster in the senate and unless they are willing to blow that up (they likely aren’t) this bill will be dead in the senate.
You don’t think they’ll “blow up” the filibuster, but not make it contingent on only when republicans are in power?
Rules haven’t mattered for decades. Why would they start now?
