31. I think this is fake news. All I can find saying this are a single facebook post.

It says this:

Trump has ordered Federal Departments to purchase and erect huge banners of his face on all federal buildings at an estimated cost of $184 million. Trump says: "they do it in North Korea and China to show respect for their supreme leaders, so why shouldn't we."

The only building where this has happened is the USDA.

However, the Government Printing Office (GPO) posted this on their official website:

GPO Produces Official Photographs of President Trump and Vice President Vance

WASHINGTON —The U.S. Government Publishing Office (GPO) has produced the official photographs of President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance. These photographs will be hung in more than 1,600 Federal buildings managed by the General Services Administration (GSA), military installations, and other Federal facilities. GPO will print nearly 100,000 photographs, which include four sizes: 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 20 x 24, and 16 x 20. As in previous administrations, GPO is also making these official photographs available for sale to the public.

This refers to photos to be hung inside the buildings which is standard practice for all administrations.
