No, we'd still have the original and we could put it on the national mall. I want to be able to see facial features without getting on a boat.

Well, I’m sure we’ll get right on that for you.

Hell no!! Ever been to the top? No elevators in the Ol Girl. Currently there are 354 steps to get to the crown of the statue. That would increase to 1,416. Huffin & Puffin

Trump should erect hybrid Statues of Liberty/guard towers along his USA-Mexico border wall.

With the current state of welcoming the worlds tired, poor, huddled masses yearning to breathe free, at the very least we should remove that placard, of just tear the darn thing down and send it back to France with a Thank You note saying that's no longer who we are.

Perhaps replace it with something more appropriate, like a giant Alabaster man with a giant beer belly caressing the head of a little blonde boy that's clutching a dollar bill with hiis other hand extended high waving a giant middle finger and an assault rifle draped over his shoulder, with a new placard that simply reads "the rest of ya'll go back home to your sh$tholes".

I'd say scrap her but she's only worth the silence of a porn star and a half
hardly worth the effort considering the $$$ needed to coverup for this idiot

I wonder if Trump's ever been to Ellis Island, read the plaque? He's made is meaningless.


Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”


I'm from New Jersey and have long wondered why Ellis Island is considered New York? Ellis Island is in New Jersey waters.
