A gold-sprayed statue has been displayed on the National Mall near the US Capital Washington, DC. The statue depicts the US President Donald Trump, along with the late Jeffrey Epstein, as doomed lovers (Jack and Rose) from the ‘Titanic’ movie.
Titled, “The King of the World”, a plaque on the statue read, “The tragic love story between Jack and Rose was built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches. This monument honours the bond between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, a friendship seemingly built on luxurious travel, raucous parties and secret nude sketches.”

The statue stands around twelve feet tall and is produced by The Secret Handshake, an obscure organisation whose makers remain anonymous. The installation is seen after a recently erected "Jeffrey Epstein Walk of Shame" installation in Farragut Square (an area near the White House), containing Hollywood-style stars with the names of various individuals connected to Epstein.
The sculpture displays a face-to-face image of Trump and Epstein, both with their arms outstretched toward the Washington Monument in the background and sitting on a representation of a ship’s bow.
According to reports, the work was installed by an anonymous artist collective known as The Secret Handshake. The Secret Handshake uses intermediaries to obtain the necessary permit from the National Park Service to erect statuary.

Last September, another statue, called “Best Friends Forever”, depicting an image of Trump and Epstein holding hands, with one leg out and back as if to be kicking playfully, was erected by artists, the Guardian reported.
