    I wonder how much it’s going to cost to undo all of the terrible, tasteless crap he’s building. Probably going to use the same contractor to do the work as well.

      Typically, ridiculous authoritarian-state buildings mostly survive the transition into non-authoritarianism. Look at this thing! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palace_of_the_Parliament

      (For whatever reason, the more authoritarian the state, the more inclined Dear Leader is to build stupid buildings. This seems to be a universal.)
