PDJT loves nice things (the lovely first lady, his hotels, golf courses, buildings, etc. tell us that), America is his/our pride and joy. I believe he will make sure our culture, architectural wonders and landscapes will be the envy of the world. Imagine, American innovation unleashed in modern times and told to go and create without government interference!!

I'm imagining an end to all the atrocious, dystopian, insidious modern art we've suffered for decades in all its forms: paintings, sculptures, architecture, music, movies, writing, and even fashion. And I look forward to the return of classic beauty, creativity, and imagination in our everyday lives. It'll be like heaven.
And how exactly do you see that happening? Is Trump going to outlaw modern art and dictate to private construction companies the style of buildings they want to make?
No, I don't think Trump will have to outlaw it. Marxists have always been behind this postmodern art movement, which is what I should have said instead of modern. When their time is over, and when they are removed from positions of power in the government and replaced in major universities, we will see a return of beauty. That's my hope.
Government building goes to the lowest bidder. The type of architecture you're talking about is cheap to produce. Hence, the lowest bidder.
So unless you're wanting the government to be spending much, much more on construction costs (to employ skilled craftsmen and purchase more expensive materials), then you're not going to be seeing any beautiful new architecture any time soon.
Unless you'd be ok in approving higher taxes in order to build nicer looking buildings?
