16. Nothing CAN be added to Mt. Rushmore. It cannot hold another face. Just ask any park ranger out there.

This fear of that pig Trump being added is irrational because it literally cannot happen. He could try to DESTROY Mt. Rushmore for spite, but I would hope he'd be stopped.

That said, It's a really fun, beautiful and kitschy road trip from where I live in Wisconsin: Blue Earth MN and the Jolly Green Giant; Wall Drug; the Corn Palace; the Badlands; the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers; Black Hills; Custer State Park; the Dignity of Earth and Sky monument; and the Crazy Horse memorial (which I agree need to be finished already FFS! Why isn't it funded?).

I've done this trip many times over the years and I love it, although the last trip a few years ago (2021)was made tense a few times by aggressive Magats being obnoxious. It was some fat, white, male wannabe bikers in Keystone and some of the same selling MAGA crap near our motel in Wall. I still hope to do it one more time. I won't let them ruin it.
