Trump Plans 250-Foot 'Triumphal Arch'

The design is currently under review by the Commission of Fine Arts, which is composed entirely of Trump appointees.

While the White House describes the arch as a symbol of the 'enduring triumph of the American spirit,' critics have labeled it a 'vanity project' that lacks a sense of scale.

The project is one of several the President is pursuing to leave a lasting footprint on the capital, including a new White House ballroom.

Lawsuits are already being prepared to challenge the arch's potential impact on the historic landscape and flight paths.
