Chris Hayes: Trump Has an ‘Obsession’ of Remaking the Nation’s Capital in ‘His Own Image’

RUSH EXCERPT:

HAYES: “Iran and the global trade and energy crises, the president had big national security news this week ready for this one quote, at the strong request of the United States military and for national security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent triumphal arch into a top grade military complex, triumphal arch, to house store. To store and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones. Plus, snipers capitalized s on both the roof and plaza areas down in the traffic circle, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage. So it won’t just be a Trump arch, it will be a storage locker for drones and snipers. I mean, why wouldn’t you want to store a ton of ammunition in traffic circle just by the Pentagon with snipers on top of it? Obviously, that sounds like a great national security idea. It’s a national security need. You see, just like the White House ballroom, it is the latest example of Trump’s obsession with remaking the nation’s capital. In his own image, from the arch and the ballroom to the gilded Oval Office and the paved oval Rose Garden and the reflecting pool, which, by the way, is just sitting there, completely unused and in disrepair.”
