He could have easily made it with pants and shoes but he made it with those dorky shorts and sandals. Why? And that magic wand like he is Harry Potter?

Or maybe he didn't realize the irony himself?

Snip

Zegan told Playbook that the statue, which shows Trump wearing a suit jacket and red tie as well as American flag shorts and flip-flops, is on sale for $100,000....

Zegan, however, pushed back against this characterization of the Trump statue, which the artist said is titled “Trump and his magic wand,” referencing former President Obama’s remark that Trump did not have a magic wand to bring back manufacturing jobs to the U.S....

Zegan told Playbook that he initially tried to bring the original sculpture to Mar-a-Lago for Trump's birthday last year but said he was not able to get past security.

"I was not a big Trump supporter when he ran," Zegan told the Politico newsletter. "I mean I voted for him because I wasn't going to vote for Hillary. So I voted for him, but I didn't really care for him. I used to watch 'The Apprentice' but I would turn it off halfway. I thought, 'This is stupid.'"

to fill it with; playboy magazines and coloring books?

I had to look it up but GW Bush got his library. I suppose a library is a good thing but he was a master idiot also.
