SC Republican files bill to allow Donald Trump to be buried on State House grounds

A Republican state legislator wants to give former President Donald Trump the option of making the State House grounds his final resting place.

A bill from state Rep. R.J. May, R-Lexington, would require the South Carolina Department of Administration to offer any president acquitted of impeachment twice to be buried on State House grounds, according to a statement from May’s political consulting firm, Ivory Tusk Consulting.

The bill is a rebuttal to one introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, which would bar any president impeached twice from being buried at Arlington National Cemetery. The U.S. House bill would also bar the federal government from spending money on statues, monuments or symbols commemorating any president who was impeached twice.

If the U.S. House bill, which was introduced a month ago and has not seen any movement in Congress since, were to pass, it would only apply to former President Trump, the only U.S. president in history to be impeached on two different occasions.

It's going to smell really bad if they bury him on state grounds if you know what I mean.

being honored in the Capitol, I'm fine.

Actually, if we are all very lucky, he'll somehow go missing and eventually, after some years (seven?) have passed, he'll be declared dead and his heirs can fight over whatever remains.

They'll have to divvy him up. SC gets a leg, Alabama gets another one, Mississippi an arm, etc etc.

Doesn’t their legislature have better things to do?
