What would Christopher Hitchens say about Donald Trump’s firing of the entire Commission of Fine Arts to make way for his ninety-thousand-square-foot ballroom and triumphal arch? In this AI reconstruction, Hitchens’ devastating wit and moral clarity are unleashed on Trump’s latest act of architectural vandalism and institutional destruction.
From his imagined vantage point, Hitchens dismantles Trump’s tinpot autocracy, exposing how the former president has transformed Washington into a monument to his own vulgarity. He reveals the deeper authoritarian impulse behind firing an independent commission simply because it might say no, showing how Trump confuses wealth with worth, size with significance, and himself with the nation he claims to serve. Hitchens skewers the sheer tastelessness of a man who thinks bigger always means better, and who approaches public service as just another property development opportunity.
Join us as we explore how Hitchens’ fearless critique of power, pomposity, and bad taste might confront Trump’s marble delusions and gold-plated megalomania.
