Looks like Morecambe & Wise.

 

 

Some folks take themselves far to seriously.

 

 

But the statue is a very poor imitation of Morecambe and Wise.

This should not be on the National Mall.   The National Mall has the World War II Veterans Memorial, the Korean Veterans Memorial, and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.   This has no place on the National Mall.   The left trashes everything out of bitterness. 

Bitterness caused by the Epstein files not being released, buddy!👍

 

PS. The world misses you, President Obama. The world misses a grown-up in the WH with a grown-up cabinet.

Not political????

Which part? The putting up the statute or the removal.  Hard to know what Leftist mean sometimes. Where did the authority come from to put this where it is.  No political?

Have you forgotten the "Hang Mike Pence Memorial"?

 

 

As an affront to FreeSpeech©, the Biden regime had the structure torn down and demolished the following day.

He keeps trying, but his connection with his best friend Epstein will never go away and he’ll continually be reminded of it.

Unlike the Woke left and the extreme right, I think the most important part of freedom of speech is the freedom of speech of people with opinions differing from my own, even those opinions I loathe and despise, such as supporters of Putin or Hamas. 

However, erecting a statue showing someone joyfully cavorting with someone convicted of a serious criminal offence isn’t stating an opinion, it’s arguably defamation, and defamation, whether on the right or left side of politics, isn’t covered by freedom of speech.

Should be easy enough to prove defamation.

 

Release the krac....er, I mean, the files.

 

Or......continue with " “May every day be another wonderful secret.”

I agree and I am absolutely not a supporter of You Know Who.

Team Biden wouldn't have hesitated for a second to tear down a statue based on some minor "typo" or insignificant issue.

 

But as pointed out by trump his policies/actions are quite different than Biden's. Thus the difference in the treatment of trump. Most certain you would agree, trump is no Joe Biden, thus the attack on Freedom of Speech ...

I haven't seen this reported here, but in related news, Seacon Square in Bangkok has also joined the Trump statue trend with its newly unveiled Mount Rushmore of dictators:

That's true.  Trump and the Big Guy are different.  For one thing, the Big Guy never had an honest job or actually built anything in his life.

The statue is down but the image of it lives on the internet forever.

 

True; can't unsee it now. The names Epstein and/or Trump mentioned, and I visualise that statue... 😆

Lots of things are done on the national mall.

Protests.

Music festivals.

Cultural festivals.

Only knee jerk authoritarians would think that sculptures that mock the current president shouldn't be allowed.

Did y'all skip CIVICS class about real American democracy and free speech values?

Washington DC is a real city.

It's not a worship ground like the capitol is in North Korea.

The National Mall is one of the public spaces in the real American city of D.C.

Any imitation of Morecambe & Wise is a poor imitation.

If Thai building is anything to go by, it will probably fall down before the weekend is out.

Sorry, I read it incorrectly as Beacon Square. Apologies to all.

They do make a cute couple.  And, of course, meant for each other.

Oooops!😂
