COMPLETELY BONKERS-Trump Hangs Banners of Him & President Lincoln Over Govt Building
COMPLETELY BONKERS -Banners of Donald Trump And President Abraham Lincoln Reading 'Growing America Since 1962' Hang Over Entrance to US Department of Agriculture in Washington D.C. 15 May 2025.

The picture of Trump is reminiscent of portraits of leaders hanging from public buildings, often seen in dictatorships, monarchies, and in descriptions in George Orwells 1984 of Big Brother.
Progressive nonprofit People For the American Way posted a photo of the USDA building with the Trump banner, also saying it is echoing authoritarian dictatorships.
This is deeply fascist, observed Democracy advocate, Army combat vet, and podcaster Fred Wellman.
Trump is spending $92 million on a birthday military parade and plastering his face on the sides of government buildings. Washington, DC is becoming Pyongyang, North Korea, podcaster Brian Tyler Cohen noted.
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins posted photos of the banners being installed, while suggesting that Trumps policies have been good for farmers a controversial opinion given his tariff and trade wars, and program cuts.
The Bulwarks Tim Miller wrote: Its interesting that these freedom loving MAGA alpha males want to institute this deeply creepy 3rd world culture where we have a national daddy that must be obeyed.
Political analyst Rachel Bitecofer warned Trump is going to go full Putin.
