"It shows Trump and Epstein gleefully holding hands. Accompanying them are several plaques, including one reading, "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday-and may every day be another wonderful secret." Those words allude to a message that was allegedly written by Trump to mark Epstein's birthday. The message, which was released by the House Oversight Committee, appears to feature those words inside a nude woman's body. Trump denied having written the message."
"The statue made its premiere on the National Mall in September as Democrats demanded the release of more files related to Epstein. The artists said at the time that the sculpture was meant to "celebrate" Trump's ties to Epstein. Not long after it went on view, the work was removed; the National Parks Service said it did not meet the permitted size specifications for a statue of its kind."
A statue of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein showing them holding hands has returned to Washington, D.C., displayed outside Busboys and Poets on 14th Street NW. The anonymous artists titled the work The Secret Handshake, later renamed Why Can't We Be Friends?, then Best Friends Forever. Several plaques accompany the figures, including the inscription: 'A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday-and may every day be another wonderful secret.' The plaque references a message allegedly written by Trump that appears inside a nude woman's image in emails released by the House Oversight Committee; Trump denied writing it. The work was previously removed from the National Mall for size violations and later reinstated.
