    Oh, I sincerely hope this is what it is. Because, as some idiot (sick) said, “It is…what it is.” .

    A golden statue of Donald Trump that has caused a stir at the annual US gathering of conservatives was made in Mexico – a country the former president frequently demonized.The statue is larger than life, with a golden head and Trump’s trademark suit jacket with white shirt and red tie. Video and pictures of the tribute being wheeled through the halls of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando, Florida, went viral on Friday.The conference is seen as a vital gathering of the Republican right, and this year has become a symbol of Trump’s continued grip on the party, despite being cast out of office after two impeachments, seemingly endless parades of scandals and a botched response to the coronavirus pandemic that has cost half a million lives in the US.Now the artist behind the huge statue of Trump – Tommy Zegan – has revealed that the object was made in Mexico; a country that has been the target of much Trump racist abuse over his political career, and somewhere he has literally sought to build a wall against.“It was made in Mexico,” Zegan told Politico’s Playbook newsletter. Zegan, who lives in Mexico on a permanent resident visa, described the transport of the monument to CPAC in full to Playbook.Politico reported: “Zegan spent over six months crafting the 200lb fiberglass statue with the help of three men in Rosarito. He transported it to Tampa, Florida, where it was painted in chrome, then hauled it from there to CPAC.”

    The Golden Calf and a Nazi themed stage at CPAC. A more immediate threat to America is nowhere on the horizon.

    Let the republicans keep that racist excuse for a human being. CPAC is the last gasp of a dying mob – and the courts.

    The GOP is sponsored by the rich, for their own interests. As long as there are rich people, there will be a GOP, possibly with a new name, but the same selfish interests.

    SEA-PAC has become an excuse for racist conspiracy theory believers to gather and worship the lies of their cult hero excuse of a human being.

    I’m surprised that no one caught the irony of the golden statue! It was so cartoonish and ugly, the head was big, the hands small, holding a star wand in one hand, wearing a suit jacket but sporting a pair of stars and stripes shorts and flip flops!! there were sooo many contradictions and blasphemies just in the presentation!! I could not stop laughing at it..To wear the stars and stripes as clothing, much less shorts! (not sure if they were summer shorts or boxers), is a no-no within the regulations regarding the star spangled banner! it’s considered a faux pa on par with burning the flag in some circles! for that reason, I never wear anything that resembles the stars and stripes! it’s disrespectful.The wearing of Flip Flops is such a gross item of clothing to wear if you are a germaphobe! God forbid your feet are bare and open for germs to congregate! don’t you know the ground is disgusting? Even the ground of the beloved Mar a lago? I don’t think he would even consider wearing that revealing for his feet!I honestly think the person who crafted it, hid some real zingers in there! and these Cheeto worshiping GOP think it’s a Golden Calf!! They have turned him into a religion!!Oh Mama, I can’t stop laughing!!

    Trump started out tearing down the Republican Party to suit himself, but now he needs little help since apparently they like it and want more…

    After Trump goes to prison republicans will be seen as the racist thieves, liars and crooks that they are.

    Being a liberal does not mean going against everything the Repulsicans are trying to do. Many of the sparse accomplishments Repulsicans have performed for the people were stolen from the Democrats.

    The whole world is probably laughing at this golden statue thing. And “they” don’t even realize it! To them it IS him! We need to laugh while the laughing is good, since the future for “him” doesn’t look too bright! Ask me if I care! Drop the whole lot of them in the Mariana trench!

    Please forgive me for once again yet again trotting out my song parody of “Josh Hawley Sings”………but he KEEPS being dishonest and cowardly and treasonous! And here we go:

    When I was a punk, folk had no doubt

    I’d commit treason with my trademark pout

    I did my level best to prove them right

    When I told a mob of traitors to go out and fight

    (When he told a mob of traitors to go out and fight)

    And though the Biggest Lie was nothing but a ruse

    They revolted just for me (also Trump and Cruz)

    (And thought the Biggest Lie was nothing but a ruse

    They revolted just for him (also Trump and Cruz)

    Because I’m never modest my own horn I’ll toot

    I gave that mob of traitors my own Fascist salute

    And when the mob rampaged I quaked with fear

    With a certain brownish discharge coming from my rear

    (With a certain brownish discharge coming from his rear!)

    But in the aftermath I voted straight and true

    To acquit my fellow traitor, Donald You Know Who

    (But in the aftermath he voted straight and true

    To acquit his fellow traitor Donald You Know Who!)
