Gold Trophy Mocking Trump Appears in New York

Gold Trophy Mocking Trump Appears in New York
Why A Giant ‘Participation Trophy’ Mocking Trump Appeared in New York City · news18.com

Imagine a giant shiny trophy that looks like a gold medal.

Artists put it in a busy part of New York City to tease President Donald Trump.

The trophy says Trump got a “participation trophy” for being involved in the Iran war, which is a joke.

People who see it can add their own little awards next to it.

The artists, who call themselves Secret Handshake, have made other political art in Washington, DC.

The White House said the artists were not good and should not talk about politics.

The trophy is near the courthouse where Trump was found guilty in a hush‑money case.

The whole thing shows how people use art to comment on politics and the Iran conflict.
