Trump ridiculed for plan to build a ‘National Garden of American Heroes’: ‘Surprised he didn’t include Zorro’ Raw Story
By Matthew Chapman
At Trump’s Independence Day Speech at Mount Rushmore, he pledged to sign an executive order establishing the “National Garden of American Heroes” in reaction to efforts to tear down monuments glorifying racist historical figures. Although many of the people proposed by the administration for the garden, like Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King, Jr., are fairly universally beloved, others, like former President Ronald Reagan, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, and evangelical preacher Billy Graham, are sharply partisan choices.
The president was roundly scorned on social media for his proposal, with many considering the whole idea a stunt, and others criticizing the choices of “heroes” Trump wanted to honor.
(It would appear it is an attempt to create a monument that he can get his face on. More bat shit crazy narcissism.)

The question is should a monument be erected that holds the potential for a Trump likeness to be added to it? Personally a picture of Satan or Hitler would suffice for a great likeness of Trump.
New Gallup polling finds record 77% of Americans think immigration to U.S. is a 'good thing'
New polling from Gallup finds that 34% of Americans want to see more immigrants welcomed to the U.S., “the highest support for expanding immigration Gallup has found in its trend since 1965,” the organization said. “Meanwhile, the percentage favoring decreased immigration has fallen to a new low of 28%, while 36% think it should stay at the present level. This marks the first time in Gallup's trend that the percentage wanting increased immigration has exceeded the percentage who want decreased immigration.”
We’ve talked about the “Trump Effect,” or how the impeached president has influenced racists to be more openly racist in public. But then there’s another Trump Effect: as he has also spent years pushing horrible anti-immigrant policy after horrible anti-immigrant policy, Americans are viewing immigration more and more favorably—and in record numbers, the poll finds.

Do you agree that immigration to the United States is a good thing?
