Trump Humiliated by Golden Dig at His ‘Bone Spurs’
Key Points:
- An anonymous artist group called The Secret Handshake installed a giant gold statue titled “The Foot Soldier” on the National Mall, depicting President Donald Trump sitting and grabbing his right foot as a commentary on his draft-dodging during the Vietnam War.
- The statue, placed near the National Gallery of Art’s Sculpture Garden, will remain through Veterans Day and includes a sarcastic inscription highlighting Trump’s avoidance of military service due to a disputed bone spur diagnosis.
- Accompanying the statue was a 6-foot mascot named “Toey,” a giant toe figure mocking Trump’s lack of military background and mannerisms, with the mascot making humorous statements about being the “hugest toe.”
- The White House condemned the installation, accusing The Secret Handshake of “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” while the artist group responded by sarcastically embracing the label and criticizing Trump’s military policies.
- The Secret Handshake has previously created several installations targeting Trump during his second term, including statues referencing his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and sarcastic trophies related to the Iran conflict.
