    Protest art on the national mall isn’t a new thing. So I’m not sure why it surprising that a bureaucrat did their job when presented with a legal request?

    It’s possible the president will be a giant man baby and order it removed again, but that doesn’t really have anything to do with the request and approval process.

      Yeah, they probably have a list of rules like ‘Is it obscene?’, ‘Is it hazardous?’ etc and stuff that doesn’t tick any boxes gets the okay.

      Okay but as a non-american this is a reasonable response. Trumps shitstorm is seeping into every little crack in the government and youre telling me they approved an epstien and trump statue? Kinda wild if you ask me.
