Massive banners with Trump’s face are adorning some federal buildings in DC.

“When I saw the banners hanging from federal office buildings last week, it reminded me of [the] Communist Party in China and banners hanging from federal offices—just totally inappropriate and a step towards authoritarianism,” Democratic Rep. Hank Johnson from Georgia told CNN. “It’s another indication of the march that we’re on towards authoritarianism in this country.”

The report, released by Schiff earlier this week that alleges the administration is using federal funds for propaganda, found the Trump administration has spent at least $50,000 in taxpayer funds to create the banners, with the Department of Agriculture spending $16,400, Health and Human Services $33,726, and the Department of Labor around $6,000.

“There shouldn’t be any money used for the president, really, any president, to go put their big picture up on the side of a building for any kind of political aggrandizement,” Rep. Joaquin Castro of Texas said. “Some of that stuff, it looks like we’re living in North Korea, the way they’re using money to put his big picture up. So yes, there should be more oversight, and it shouldn’t just apply to him. It should apply to future presidents.”

Dylan Hedtler-Gaudette, the government affairs manager at Project On Government Oversight, a nonpartisan ethics group, echoed the sentiment.

This is terrifying. The president's face should not be draped stories high anywhere. TACO is a true Nazi.

This shit is going to backfire on Trump, too.

I think MAGA morons love that there are huge Stalinesque pictures of Dear Leader being hung on public buildings.

What's hilarious is how on the second banner where they've listed his supposed "achievements", it includes "REMOVING GOVERNMENT WASTE" while wasting tens of thousands of dollars on these creepy banners.

Anyone find a difference between these temporary tribute banners on commercial buildings and the President’s steel-eyed portraits on government buildings?

This is one more example of MAGA going too far, in my opinion. People won't like it.

None of them proclaim Trump "king." By that standard, Obama does the Mussolini thing with the chin up pose.
