Video Of Golden Trump Statue Being Wheeled Into CPAC Gets Roasted With Bible References

Video Of Golden Trump Statue Being Wheeled Into CPAC Gets Roasted With Bible References

A video of a golden Donald Trump statue being wheeled through the convention center at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando, Florida has the internet abuzz with references to the Old Testament and idol worship.

The clip was posted to Twitter by William Turton of Bloomberg News.


The internet's response was immediate and harsh.





Twitter users are referencing Exodus 20:4, which states:

"Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth."









In the Christian Old Testament when Moses came back down the mountain from receiving the 10 Commandments, he saw the people had begun worshiping a golden calf and was angry because they had turned away from the teachings of God.

The golden calf, and idolatry in general, are greatly frowned upon throughout the Christian Bible.

Someone out there really didn't think the golden Trump idea through before they made the statue.

And the punchline on this debacle?

The golden Trump was made in Mexico.

And that's not the last twist in this bizarre story.

Just when you thought you'd seen it all...

Video Of McDonald's Worker Dropping Food On Floor Before Putting It Back On Tray Sparks Food Safety Debate

We've all heard of the "five-second rule," where when you drop a piece of food on a safe surface, you can still eat it if you've picked it back up within five seconds. Most people won't bat an eye at this when they're at home or with friends, again, if the food is dropped in a safe and clean location, like on a kitchen counter while making a plate.

But a floor really should never be included among the safe and clean surface options, especially when that floor is in a public space, and the five-second rule shouldn't even exist in food service spaces.

Keke Palmer Just Tried To Claim That Jesus Must've Been A Virgo—And Her Reasoning Is Hilariously On Point

Keke Palmer is probably one of the "best hangs" in Hollywood, so it only makes sense that she has, in just days, become one of Amy Poehler's most iconic "Good Hang" guests.

Palmer stopped by Poehler's Good Hang podcast to talk about all sorts of stuff, but what really seems to have caught the internet's attention is her takes on astrology.
