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...

Vance Blasted After Making Gaslighting Claim About How Tariffs Are Actually Helping 'Average Americans'

Vice President JD Vance was quickly called out after he claimed in a Fox News interview focused on President Donald Trump's tariffs that tariffs will actually lead to "tax relief" for Americans.

Vance spoke as Trump continues to leave countries reeling over his chaotic tariff policies; he just announced, for example, yet another 90-day pause on sweeping tariffs on China. The Chinese government said they hope the move will lead to "positive outcomes" for China and the U.S.

Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.

JB Pritzker Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Pushing His GOP Allies To Redistrict—And He's Spot On

Speaking on NBC's Meet the Press, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker perfectly explained why President Donald Trump is pushing for gerrymandered redistricting in Republican-led states amid pushback from Democrats in Texas.

Redistricting has been all over the news cycle in the days since Texas Democrats fled the state to avoid voting on a new heavily-gerrymandered redistricting map and to deny their GOP colleagues a quorum, the minimum number of lawmakers required to conduct legislative business.
