A golden-hooved goat statue at Mar-a-Lago that's covered in cash with the slogan "In Trump we Trust" on it feels like something straight out of the Bible.

President Donald Trump was criticized after images circulated of a golden-hooved goat statue at Mar-a-Lago that's covered in cash with the slogan "In Trump we Trust" on it, replacing "God" in the phrase “In God we trust” with Trump.

Yes, you read that correctly.


The statue is mounted on a black base featuring an American flag on one side and bears the inscription "I love you" accompanied by Trump's signature.

You can see it below.

The images reminded some people of the story of the Golden Calf in the Bible, a commentary on those who drift away from faith.

The story begins at the same time as Moses' experience on Mount Sinai, while he was receiving the Ten Commandments.

As impatience grew among the Israelites during Moses’ absence, they sought a new object of worship. They gathered their gold jewelry, melted it down, and crafted a Golden Calf, proclaiming it as their god. God, seeing their betrayal, was prepared to destroy them in his wrath, but Moses pleaded on their behalf.

Descending from the mountain with the stone tablets inscribed by God, Moses witnessed the Israelites celebrating around the Golden Calf. Overcome with anger, he shattered the tablets at the mountain’s base. He then burned the idol, ground it into powder, scattered it over the water, and made the people drink it as a symbol of their wrongdoing.

God instructed Moses to continue leading the Israelites to the promised land of Canaan, where He would meet them again. However, as a consequence of their idolatry, a plague struck the people before their journey resumed.

Considering the way many people have lost themselves to Trump's MAGA cult, many saw significant parallels.



If there's one thing that can be said about this display it's that MAGA Republicans are, as Tim Walz made clear, very weird.

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
