Lol, not even really gold, like the rest of his crap:
the president fails to mention the fact that the figure is merely wrapped in gold leaf.
The shiny livery was added to the bronze statue by the sculptor, who told the Daily Beast that it was the easiest mark-up of his life. “They loved the idea, of course. It’s like pitching ice water to a man dying of thirst. It was not a hard sell,” Alan Cottrill said.
The artist literally upsold them for no other reason than money, and then bragged about gouging them over making it shiny. There was also something about him holding the statue until they paid in full, before delivering it. He knows what’s up with these losers.

Give it a few months and the gold leaf is flaking off, and they start fixing it with spray paint. It’s all so poetic.
Holy shit, your comment made me realize something. Is Trump spraying himself orange because he thinks it makes him look golden?
Yes

Such a waste. Bronze looks so much better than that gold, especially when it rusts.
I wonder how this will patina with piss. I can’t be the only one that really wants to piss on it. I’m sure that will become a thing.
I hope it becomes a celebrated yearly event.
When the drawing looks more like real gold than the photograph…
