Trump Demands Washington Statue at Smithsonian | Charlotte News

Former President Trump is making bold moves to reshape the Smithsonian, demanding a giant George Washington statue and a sweeping new exhibit for him — even specifying a 11-foot IndyCar statue for Flag Hall — while pushing to replace the “Infinity” sculpture with a 30-foot tribute. He insists Washington is America’s greatest hero and criticizes the museum for omitting key moments like the Delaware crossing. Trump also wants to rename the institution’s focus from “Restorative History” to “American Heroes,” echoing past attempts to influence its direction through executive orders and public pressure — all as the museum’s director prepares to step down.
