Activists Unfurl Giant Trump–Epstein Photo Outside Windsor Castle Ahead of State Visit

The Everyone Hates Elon campaign says donations from the British public funded the display to embarrass the president during his Windsor stay.

Overview

  • Organizers from Everyone Hates Elon claimed responsibility and said a roughly 400-square-metre banner was crowdfunded with about £30,000 in public donations.
  • Footage posted to the group’s social accounts shows the image spread on the lawn near Windsor Castle, with police and security preparing the site.
  • Additional videos show satirical mugs and plates featuring the same photo placed in the Windsor Castle gift shop as a protest stunt, and they are not official merchandise.
  • The display was described as the 'world’s largest' of the pair by organizers, and TIME reported it has since been removed ahead of the president’s arrival.
  • The White House has denied that the president drew or signed a note in Epstein’s 'birthday book,' and reports note he has not been accused or federally investigated in the Epstein case.
