The site asks for contributions ranging from $10, which will earn donors a vote on the location of where the statue will be permanently installed, to $25,000 to receive a limited quarter-life-size bronze replica.

Oh, it's a grift.

As much as I love Hexbear - Bluesky can be fantastic. The libs there can be so Trump-obsessed that many of them can't help but post whatever insane shit Trump is up to. It's funny as hell but it's fucking sad too. I almost feel guilty poking around their recent posts. It's like peeking into their deepest private parasocial infatuation. They actually get angry about this shit.

The GOP wants to cut maybe around TRILLION from Medicaid and food stamps. Yet some libs are actually incensed about what art Trump puts into the oval or some large statute of himself.

Imagining Reagan having a little shoe box diorama of the scene at the Washington Hilton... 9 feet tall! Or life sized according to his next physical.

The statue isn't even gold. Trump missed a good chance to rile up the libs over nothing. He really has lost the magic.

That is such a gross way to depict the female security guard. The way she clings onto him is way too intimate.

[–] mathemachristian@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

omg youre right! the dude security guard his lightly holding his arm and he and trump look so stilted but there is way more effort into how she is positioned 🤮

Libs will eventually reclaim this and hype it up as an important piece of american history.

What I love about that is Disney clearly fucked up big-time. They expected Hillary to win so they didn't even bother making a Trump. But Trump won and they quickly had to have something so they converted Hillary into Trump. There's a zero percent chance that started out as Trump. Some notable publication said it was a "conspiracy theory" to think Trump is a converted Hillary. C'mon. We have eyes. Just look!

the hillaryous implication being "all white people look alike anyway"

[–] Archangel1313@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago

I think that was originally supposed to be Hillary...but after she lost, they just changed the hair and put a suit on it.

took me a sec to realize this was about the time he almost got clipped.

before I placed it, I was like "is this some kinda 'hold me back, boys' thing? why does it look like that dude is grinding up on his leg?"

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 11 points 2 days ago

why does it look like that dude is grinding up on his leg?"

Y-M-C-A!

No, seriously - HOW DARE YOU.

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 20 points 2 days ago

God that's so shitty looking. Ignoring how it doesn't resemble Trump or the actual face he made in the photo, the proportions are all off. I think the guy on Trump's left has an arm reaching around Trump's back like some kind of Gumbi/Stretch Armstrong superpower.

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 2 days ago

I can't believe ...

Really ? This is 100% on-brand for Trump.

[–] WatDabney@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 2 days ago

Such a weak and pathetic little man.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If they build that statue, it's definitely getting fucked up real good

God I forgot his name was Tommy Crooks, there's no way this is real life

just nine feet? pfff

trump's gotta have a statue bigger than that big kim statue. 73ft at least.

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

why does the security guy look like obama?

hint at possible inside job?

[–] SpicyLizards@reddthat.com 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He has his own photo as a phone background. I bet he loses control at his own reflection... and children.
