They didn’t even clean up the rubble
That was intentional, the klansman who built it didn’t choose a place that was culturally significant to the indigenous people by accident.
I’m not American, but the isopods that live with me under the same rock weren’t aware that this was made by Klansmen
Don’t worry - most Americans don’t know either.

Teddy did. That’s why his face is included
While Teddy was the self-aggrandizing type who probably wouldn’t have objected to having his face carved into a mountain, Rushmore wasn’t even proposed until long after Teddy’s political career was over.
I dunno, Theodore was also a reknowned appreciator of natural beauty, so I could see it going either way.
Yes, he protected land like this from developers. He’s the reason we have national parks. No way he would have approved this.
