Depends on what "national treasures" are being referred to.
I don't see how he could destroy national parks/forests. While I believe they are unConstitutional, I believe it would take an act of Congress to disband them.
Any actual destruction would be a federal crime, like burning down the Smithsonian, would be an act outside the scope of his office, so he would face prosecution after he left office.
He already has destroyed out national parks Walt. He rescinded all protections and so anyone can go in and build any thing or cut down anything or frack anything. He did that a couple years ago. You didn't KNOW? You have moer faith in dumb don than I do or our Canadian friend does. I think the vindictive vile vicious venal vitriolic in him is unlimited. Thank you for your reply. When I see the Ken Burns specials about the National Forests I CRINGE. He made them during President Obama's administration when things were as he said. No longer true what we see is what used to be. Dam* SOB jacka** will see to that you better believe it. :(
Well, America’s national parks drew upon earlier examples of European woodland preservation; but they were a uniquely American idea rooted in democracy, philosophy and art.
Trump has no particular love for democratic ideals, and appreciation for philosophy and art seems totally absent.
So, yes, I expect he can and will take some serious swipes at such things out of vengeance.
trump would destroy anything out of spite. That's how his mind words (it's all about ME).
While he could destroy/deface landmarks (National Treasures), he probably won't. he desires praise, not shame. Remember, he thinks he's the "best president ever". Anytime he does something bad, he calls it a hoax. Not the kind of "fame" he desires.
