White House aides reached out to South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem last year about the process of adding additional presidents to Mount Rushmore, the New York Times reported.
According to a person familiar who spoke with the Times, Noem then greeted Trump when he arrived in the state for his July Fourth celebrations at the monument with a four-foot replica of Mount Rushmore that included his face. Noem has noted before Trump's "dream" to have his face on Mount Rushmore, the Coolidge-era sculpture that features the 60-foot-tall faces of Presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt.
According to a 2018 interview with Noem, the two struck up a conversation about the sculpture in the Oval Office during their first meeting, where she initially thought he was joking. "I started laughing," she said. "He wasn't laughing, so he was totally serious."

Having created the US Space Force, the best monument to Trump will be to put his face on the MOON! Visible to the naked eye, of course, and returning every 28 days to make liberals cry and sad.
NYT needs to be locked in a closet along with Fauci.
Dunno...but Mazie Hirono likeness should be on the side of a Hawaiian volcano for the amount of hot lava coming out of her mouth.
Fake news there’s no more room on mount Rushmore for any more faces.
Plus it’s a federal Park that doesn’t need permission South Dakota to do anything with it.
I highly doubt this even happened especially since it ran in the Eww Yuck Slimes and Communist News Network.
Mount Rushmore isn’t big enough for abrams.
Hell Mount McKinley, isn’t big enough for her either..... Maybe one of Jupiter’s moons perhaps?
I thought Kristi had potential until she went and blew it on this.
The NYT is unable to write w/o lying. The problem is there are millions who believe every word the NYT prints.
It’s the sick fantasies of the left. The NYT is reduced to writing masturbatory literature for leftists.
I would not write her off because of an article in the NY Slimes. How many fictitious and BS articles have they written in the last three years?
I often see FReepers ready to jettison this person or that person based on a NYT article for which the ink is not even dry and you may never hear another word about it after the echo news cycle, there is a non-retraction retraction (page B44), or the person named or cited comes out and says it is BS and they were taken out of context or did not say it.
That is not to say it is not true (they get one right every so often), but give every story from the Slimes 24-48 hours before you get upset. FWIW - as others have stated, I could also see Trump trolling on this.
Always...always.....remember...conservatives have opponents...liberals have enemies.

Call a big old case of fake news on this one. Mt. Rushmore is a part of the federal park system run by the Interior Department. Why would there be any need to consult with Noem?
There ain't enough rock in South Dakota to put that fat-ass Stacey Abrams anywhere.
Im all for Kristis behind on Mount Rushmore.....could do worse
Shes a doll and her heads right
I was there two years ago and I asked the ranger if there was room there for me.
I guess I won’t be getting elected soon.
Geeesh!
These people are idiots.
Buwhahahaha...he inquired about adding another PRESIDENT... Not himself.
I think he would put reagan up.
