Senator Shamp Strongly Condemns Group Responsible for

Repulsive Statue Depicting President Donald Trump

PHOENIX, ARIZONA— Senator Janae Shamp strongly condemns the obscene nude statue of President Donald Trump that was hung from a crane in Las Vegas and reappeared most recently in Phoenix.

"How anyone could possibly believe this political stunt is anything more than sick and deplorable is beyond me," said Senator Shamp. "Many Americans have recently lost their lives or livelihoods in large areas of our country as a result of Hurricane Helene. Our federal government has run out of aid money to assist them after spending nearly $1 billion in FEMA funding to aid illegal immigration and the Biden-Harris open border crisis. Hardworking families are struggling to put food on the table because of inflation. American citizens are dying every single day from consuming deadly fentanyl that's trafficked into our country. Need I say more? We need solutions, and we need unity in this country right now, not dangerous and deplorable political theater. This "project" is a shameful use of anyone's resources and needs to end now."
