Big beautiful buildings unfortunately work phenomenally to leave your mark in history. I doubt anyone will tear down anything this administration built any time soon. They‘re more likely to become landmarks while everyone tries to forget who built them.

Yup. Look at the Palace of the People in Romania. Buildings are expensive to demolish properly, expensive to put up, so it's easier to just leave them up if they are or can be made to fit a purpose.
