A second mysterious and satirical monument has appeared in the nation’s capital, this time a “tribute” to former President Donald Trump for referring to the white supremacists who marched in a 2017 rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, as “very fine people.”
“The Donald J. Trump Enduring Flame” popped up early Monday a few blocks from the White House. Mounted on a faux cement block, it depicts a large bronze hand holding up a flaming tiki torch, a nod to the torches carried by the thousands of neo-Nazis and right-wing extremists who terrorized the Virginia town in a “Unite the Right” rally.
It’s the second such monument to magically appear in the city. Last week, a memorial popped up on Capitol Hill to “honor” Trump and the insurrectionists of Jan. 6, 2021, with a giant bronze poop.
The installations look like official national monuments, with bronze and cement components. Up close, though, they are actually very light and appear to be made of foam or cloth-covered wood.
