Controversial 43ft Nude Trump Statue Erected in Nevada Removed After Backlash
A massive effigy of Donald Trump, titled 'Crooked and Obscene,' drew ire from Republicans and was quickly taken down, with plans for a nationwide tour.
- The 43-foot-tall nude statue of Donald Trump appeared near Interstate 15 in Las Vegas over the weekend.
- Republicans condemned the effigy as 'deplorable' and 'pornographic,' arguing it prioritized shock value over meaningful dialogue.
- The statue, which weighs 6,000 pounds and is made of foam and rebar, was removed less than 48 hours after its installation.
- The anonymous artists behind the statue intended it as a statement on political transparency and vulnerability.
- Plans are in place for the statue to tour key swing states ahead of the November presidential election.
