National Mall is a propaganda battlefield for Trump and his critics
Update: 2026-03-25
Description
Banners bearing the face of President Trump vie with satiric statues and protest posters in a propaganda battle playing out in and around the National Mall in Washington, DC.
Huge banners bearing President Trump’s face hang from several federal buildings. One within eyeshot of a statue of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein that went up earlier this month. NPR’s Frank Langfitt spoke with visitors about this visual tug-of-war.
