The White House doesn’t seem too happy about the larger-than-life replica of a birthday card to Jeffrey Epstein, with a sexually suggestive drawing of a naked woman’s torso with what appears to be President Donald Trump’s signature, that was placed on Washington, D.C.’s National Mall, the Daily Beast reports.
Deputy White House Press Secretary Abigail Jackson released a statement pointing the finger at Democrats for the installation, made by the anonymous collective the Secret Handshake. “Kudos to these Trump Deranged Liberals for constantly inventing new ways to light Democrat donor money on fire by spreading fake news,” Jackson said while questioning when Democratic leaders with Epstein ties will be put on blast.
Trump has repeatedly denied writing, drawing, or having anything to do with the note, despite his very distinctive signature at the bottom. The president once sued The Wall Street Journal and its parent companies for bringing the card to light.
While the White House may hope people forget about it, others are celebrating the artists for keeping their foot on Trump’s neck and keeping the issue front and center.
“Looking forward to your jail sentence, DJT!” one card message read, while another said, “The people will rise. We already are.”
Susan Fritz, a D.C. resident, said she likes how the artists “didn’t have to make anything up.” “They just had to blow it up and put it out here,” the 61-year-old said.
Of course, even with a permit, it wasn’t long before the statue was pulled by U.S. Park Police, pushing complaints of censorship.
