The Washington Monument stands behind tree stumps at East Potomac Park in Washington, where hundreds of trees were cut down at the golf course, on Nov. 13, 2026. President Donald Trump ordered the closure of East Potomac Golf Links beginning Nov. 15, saying the course was dangerous and dilapidated. He plans to transform it into a championship-level course despite an ongoing legal challenge. (Chip Somodevilla /Getty Images)MOREHIDE
