An art installation has once again appeared in the US capital Washington DC that criticizes President Donald Trump and his style of government: a golden throne and toilet.

The marble-look throne was installed directly on the long promenade between the Capitol and the Lincoln Memorial. Instead of a conventional seat, a golden toilet is mounted on the platform.

The throne fits in with the protests from the weekend: several million people protested in all 50 states on Saturday under the motto “No Kings”. Their protest was directed against the government of US President Donald Trump, the war in Iran and the deportation raids.
A plaque at the new installation reads:
“In a time of unprecedented division, escalating conflict and economic turmoil, President Trump focused on what really mattered: redesigning the Lincoln Bathroom in the White House.”
Trump is just a man who takes care of business.
As several media outlets report, the “Secret Handshake” group is once again behind the campaign. She had already caused a stir in mid-March with a statue that depicted Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in the famous Titanic pose.
