10. Gross. The article has pictures (VOMIT WARNING)

The monument to Trump appears to be loosely based on an image taken of him just after a gunman narrowly missed his head during a July 2024 speech in Butler, Pennsylvania.

The president is depicted with an open-collared dress shirt and suit with his fist raised to the air.

Like most things Trump is fond of, it will be covered in pure gold leaf. But at 22 feet on the pedestal, it will be far smaller than other large monuments to world leaders, such as the 72-foot statue of late North Korean dictators Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il at the Mansudae Grand Monument in Pyongyang.

And of course there are smaller statuettes. Will they be handed out to the trashbros who attend and genuflect, or sold to the cult for preposterous prices?
