A “living statue” of Donald Trump has been unveiled in New York City’s Battery Park showing the gold-clad president riding a golf buggy over tombstones of coronavirus and dead soldiers while being followed by Fox News hosts.

The brash installation, dubbed “The Final Push”, was revealed Tuesday morning in Trump’s city of birth, taking pride of place along the Hudson River near Pier A.

It was set up by a collective of artists called The Trump Statue Initiative who said they aim to showcase “our 45th President’s most notoriously self-serving, narcissistic and racist moments”. […]

Pushing the president’s golf cart on the statue are two actors posing as Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham, while the action is being filmed by a cameraman. …

Because it was a lie, moron.

Yeah, I think this was planned in coordination with the fake news article on the military. I suspect they have a several more stunts planned about that fake news article.

And I suspect an avalanche of fake news articles followed immediately by ads and stunts for the next two months.

A monument Trump will WANT to tear down:

Active and retired military will take care of this. I am just wondering what will happen. Will stealing it from each other be a right of passage for newly graduated special forces? Or will it be a training exercise for a UDT. Night incursion and some C-4. Maybe a snatch and grab from a helicopter. Or a military tug could put a line around it and tow it out to sea. Or a NG unit could park a tank on it.

The possibilities are endless and I am sure some creating 18 year old can think of things that would astound me.

Are those a-holes posing in the fake monument going to stay there 24/7?

Okay, this is just infantile and ridiculous. Their money could have gone to helping the less fortunate, but I guess it made them feel like heroes....

So just anyone can litter this park with whatever?

I'm sure it already has its share of homeless peoples' feces. I guess they wanted to diversity the look.

A “destroyer of civil rights and liberties” would have removed this waste pile and those responsible within an hour of its erection.

That’s what I was wondering. But if you look at some of the photos, the positions of the “statues” changed. These are idiot “artists” dressed to look like statues. They have “statues” in other cities:

This makes the concept of destroying the statue even more appealing.
