In a video posted to his official TikTok account on Wednesday, US President Donald Trump suggested he may never remove the enormous UFC arena being constructed on the White House lawn for his birthday celebrations. He also compared it to Paris's iconic Eiffel Tower, which was initially intended to be temporary but ultimately remained standing. However, Trump's account of the tower's history is not entirely accurate.
"People don't know that in Paris, France, the Eiffel Tower, in 1889, it was built. It was supposed to be taken down immediately after the World's Fair, and then they said, 'leave it up a little bit longer,' and then they said, 'let's leave it up longer and longer and longer,'" he said.
