Rocky Relations? Thai Mall Displays 'Mt Rushmore' of Trump, Putin, Xi and Kim
A monument depicting Trump alongside Putin, Kim, and Xi was unveiled at Bangkok's Seacon Square mall as part of The Summit Camp event starting September 24.
- On September 23, Bangkok's Seacon Square unveiled a Mount Rushmore replica featuring Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and Xi Jinping in the mall atrium.
- As part of The Summit Camp, organisers presented the exhibit at Seacon Square, Bangkok, saying it `wasn't meant to deliver any single message-- but to invite conversation`.
- Inside the mall, shoppers snapped selfies and sipped matcha lattes while some visitors described the four leaders as `all authoritarians` and James Kumar called it `a powerful statement, all of them together,` on Thursday.
- With no immediate diplomatic replies, observers said the display amplified debate over President Donald Trump's 2025 conduct, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer warning of `the path to a dictatorship` and Steven Levitsky describing it as authoritarianism.
- Earlier this year, Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna introduced a bill to add Trump's face to Mount Rushmore, but it stalled in the House Committee on Natural Resources; historically, calls included Ronald Reagan, Eleanor Roosevelt and Susan B. Anthony.
