Dump Trump is a 16 feet (4.9 m) high statue of former United States President Donald Trump sitting on a golden toilet. The sculpture was temporarily installed in Central London's Trafalgar Square ahead of his 2019 visit to the United Kingdom, and displayed during the Trump-organised Salute to America in Washington, D.C., on 4 July 2019.
In addition to depicting Donald Trump tweeting from a smartphone on a golden toilet while wearing a MAGA hat with " IMPEACH ME!" scribbled on it, the 16-foot (4.9 m) statue makes flatulence noises and says the phrases "I'm a very stable genius", "no collusion", "witch-hunt", and "you are fake news". The statue was designed by dinosaur expert and author Don Lessem and cost approximately $25,000. [1] [2] "I'm interested in things that are big, not very intelligent and have lost their place in history", the artist commented. [3]
