To our friends in the USA.
We, the undersigned, humbly request that, should Trump win the next election, the plaque fixed to the top of the Empire State Building dedicated to the defence forces of America be removed.

It would clearly be false advertising to continue to refer to them as "Defenders of the world"

If that is the metaphorical hill you would die upon, then go ahead and sign the petition.

As for me, I have never seen this alleged plaque, so whether or not it is actually there is no concern of mine.

That seems like an odd place to draw a line. There have been regular failures in that department in the period after WWII.
