      I’m guessing that he had it done himself and that he owns it and isn’t gonna leave it behind.

        I would be very surprised if he paid anything from his own pocket for it. I would also assume he’d take it with him, but that’s assuming he would hand over power peacefully.

          I would be very surprised if he paid anything from his own pocket for it.

          The article says that he’s trying to get donations for a larger one, so he definitely isn’t getting government funds for that.

          I mean, it’s a desk paperweight. He’s wealthy. This is not a ton of money.

    Now this MF is building “statues” of himself. How many red flags can they “slip” past?

    There are plans to create a 9-foot-tall version in bronze in the works, according to the project’s website.

    The site asks for contributions ranging from $10, which will earn donors a vote on the location of where the statue will be permanently installed, to $25,000 to receive a limited quarter-life-size bronze replica.

    Contributors who give $4,500 will receive a 12-inch sculpture. “These sculptures are the same one’s [sic] being offered to big money donors to The Trump Campaign,” the site says.

    Jesus fucking Christ…

    If the assassination attempt would have worked, Kamala could still have put up that statue, as a memorial of the victory over fascism.

          There is a theory that MAGA has staged the event, because Trump’s ear looked completely fine after a really really short time, so he can tell his cultists that he is the chosen one for the presidency. I don’t know which one is it, because I am ignorant in the terms of human body but I think it could possibly be a really good makeup

      If Trump was killed during her campaign Harris would’ve used her campaign money to try and revive him in the interest of civility and bipartisanship.

      Like the fact that SS knew about the shooter way before he even set up his rifle? Or the lack of investigation into the guy? I mean they went on and on and on about hunters laptop but an actual attempt on Trump’s life? Never mentioned before this.

        “lack of investigation” is fairly normal when the person is dead. Anyways, it’s really, really, really obvious the Secret Service decided to let the kid take his shot before they killed him.

      If it were staged, why would they pick a Republican to be the fall guy, instead of a woke Marxist?

      I doubt it as many people hate Trump and want him to die. He definitely leaned into the whole victim thing but I’m sure the attempt was real.

    I hope Obama wins the presidency back via the traditional leadership challenge of Hell In A Cell and then puts this statuette up his bum on live TV.
