Vain deception has a long history in the most prominent architecture in Washington, D.C. The most fascistic celebration in this pompous tradition is probably

the capitol building - where the militaristic roman symbols are used to frame a great deal of cloyingly bad art and to try provide an air of righteousness to

politicians who regularly use misrepresentations for personal gain. It is a glorified sausage factory and its products are largely composed of ingredients which

have grossly debilitating effects around the planet. The Trump scam is a desperately greedy attempt at ignoring reality in order to suck the life out of any

possible attempts at social responsibility and it is also largely bipartisan. When modernism was endorsed for government buildings, it was also mainly a

tool whereby the sausage factory could try to brainwash its subjects into believing they were the "exceptional" people among all of the people on the

planet.

"American" vanity should never be underestimated and Trump's desire for fascist control over building design is reflected all over the mall.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he might want to bulldoze the Vietnam memorial. It is the only monument which even hints at the truth. Of course, it

also ignores the millions of poor Vietnamese who were slaughtered under the long-standing fascist corporatism which is widespread in architectural

disdain for socially and environmentally responsible behavior.

Maybe Trump can put a dome in the center of the pentagon because that building is the central cathedral and every year it gets greater and greater

funding for its "huge"ly wasteful effects.
