Donald Trump has now got people to put banners of his image on federal buildings. Dictators do that.

In a statement to Snopes, the USDA confirmed the authenticity of the images. A spokesperson wrote via email:
USDA has much to remember in the coming months: the 163rd anniversary of the Department's founding on May 15th, the sacrifice of our nation's fallen on Memorial Day on May 26th, the 248th anniversary of the adoption of Old Glory on Flag Day on June 14th, and the 249th anniversary of the ratification of the Declaration of Independence on the Fourth of July. USDA is the only federal agency located on the National Mall. The banners on the building's façade observe these moments in American history and acknowledge the vision and leadership of USDA's founder, Abraham Lincoln, and the best advocate of America's farmers and ranchers, President Trump.
Trump has not been a friend of farmers.
