"Spotted on the Resolute Desk during an Oval Office press conference yesterday: a mock-up of what would be a new triumphal arch just across the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial.
The arch, if built as depicted,
would sit at the entrance to Arlington National Cemetery.
Arc de Trump? The model resembles the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, "which was commissioned by the French emperor Napoleon in the early 19th century to commemorate fallen soldiers during his military campaigns," AFP notes."
