“The hypocrisy of the powerful is the most dangerous hypocrisy.” ~ James Baldwin 47th President of the United States | Donald J. Trump The Art Meme: A highly stylised, painterly image depicting Donald Trump in a Christ-like role, wearing a white robe with a red draped cloth, standing over a man lying in a hospital bed. Trump places one hand on the man’s head while holding a glowing light in the other, suggesting a healing gesture. The scene is surrounded by figures looking on, including a nurse, a soldier, and civilians, some with hands clasped in prayer. In the background, a large American flag fills the sky alongside bald eagles, fighter jets, fireworks, and a distant Statue of Liberty. Above, radiant light breaks through clouds, illuminating angelic or heroic figures, reinforcing a religious and patriotic symbolism.
See It On Your Wall "Statue of Bigotry" by Booda Brand, 2017 The Art Scoop: A graphic poster-style artwork in red and black showing a Statue of Liberty figure with the face of Donald Trump, raising a set of scales in one hand and holding a bomb in the other. Dollar bills scatter through the air as the scales tilt unevenly. Barbed wire, fencing, and raised fists fill the foreground, with industrial structures and a dark sky in the background. The words “STATUE OF BIGOTRY” appear at the top and “POWER TO THE PEOPLE” at the bottom, framing the image with a decorative border.
