A statue of President Donald Trump and late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has appeared on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., with the White House responding, “Liberals are free to waste their money.”
A plaque under the statue reads, âIn Honor of Friendship Month,â followed by, âWe celebrate the long-lasting bond between President Donald J. Trump and his âclosest friend,â Jeffrey Epstein,â The Hill news outlet reported.
Two other plaques include a message reportedly written by Trump on a birthday card for Epstein more than 20 years ago, which Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee released earlier this month, after the Epstein estate turned it over to the panel. Trump has denied that the message and card were from him.
White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said regarding the statue that âliberals are free to waste their money however they see fit â but itâs not news that Epstein knew Donald Trump, because Donald Trump kicked Epstein out of his club for being a creep.â
âDemocrats, the media, and the organization thatâs wasting their money on this statue knew about Epstein and his victims for years and did nothing to help them while President Trump was calling for transparency, and is now delivering on it with thousands of pages of documents,â she added.
