    If he is gonna spend public money to worship himself, I at least expect the statue to be slightly higher quality than this piece of crap.

      It was quite an artistic choice to make the female secret service agent look like she is cowering in fear rather than the reality that she was trying to tackle/take a bullet for the dumbass target who wouldnt stay down.

      Then by comparison you have the male agent who looks like hes at the beach and not even concerned about gunfire at all. Its actually impressive how much misogyny is dripping out of this statue

      Not to mention we all know Trump was not anywhere close to the tallest of the people on that stage

        During the actual event the female agent seemed to be pulling Trump down and blocking his front and side, while the male agent was pushing him down and shielding overtop him. The main issue is Trump is old and built like a frog, so you can’t apply much oressure or else you make him tumble. This probably allowed him to break free and stand for the fight moment.

      If someone gave me a statue of myself looking that pathetic, I’d thank them profusely and shove it in my sock drawer, only bringing it out when they visit.
