Golden Statue Mocking Trump’s Bone Spurs History Appears on National Mall
An anonymous art group erected a satirical statue of Donald Trump on the National Mall, lampooning his bone spur diagnosis ahead of Veterans Day.
POLICY WIRE — Washington, D.C. — A new sculpture has appeared on the National Mall, targeting Donald Trump with a satirical depiction of his medical history regarding bone spurs.
The golden effigy, created by an anonymous artistic collective known as Secret Handshake, was set up just two days prior to Veterans Day. The artwork depicts the 80-year-old former president clutching his foot, a reference to the claims that he avoided the Vietnam War draft.
This unauthorized installation arrived exactly one week after the midterm elections, where the GOP faced significant losses. The bronze-colored statue serves as a public critique of the diagnosis that allowed Trump to bypass military service.
