If it were a cock statue depicting Trump,
it'd have to be much smaller.

^snip^

At least four stores are selling the Trump rooster, with prices starting from $57 to a whopping $1,739 for a statue that's 32 feet tall.

I would love to see these things all over America.

Figuratively and literally. How many ways can art and lexicon create images of our new Twitler or Toddler in Chief. Can't decide which one I like best.
