As the United States experiences a racial awakening following continued worldwide protests, President Donald Trump has made it clear that he is on the side of Confederate statues.

But it's not only statues of slave owners President Trump has vowed to protect. In a recent Trump campaign ad, the President promised a "new" one of Jesus Christ would be safe under his care.

The statue pictured was Brazil's iconic Christ The Redeemer, a massive sculpture in absolutely no danger of being destroyed.


Trump and his campaign were roundly mocked on Twitter.



Christ the Redeemer is in no danger from anybody.



With a pandemic rapidly spreading in America, President Trump is most focused on which statues get to stay up and which don't.



Brazil is just a little bit outside of the President's jurisdiction.


Perhaps there are other things President Trump should be more intent on protecting?


As of the writing of this article, Christ the Redeemer is still standing with no plans to take it down in the foreseeable future.

There's no denying that Kim Kardashian and her SKIMS brand are popular, but like her undergarment line that included faux pubic hair, she's certainly had some misses along the way.

The latest in the line of SKIMS offenses was none other than the clothing brand's Christmas advent calendar, complete with 12 days of Christmas trinkets and priced at just under $150.

He openly attacked LGBTQ+ rights, backed the white genocide conspiracy theory, and was a major figure in the MAGA movement.

JoJo Siwa Sparks 'Trad Wife' Comparisons After Debuting Her Conservative New Look

JoJo Siwa has been in the spotlight for most of her life, thanks initially to her partnership with her mother on Dance Moms, through which she became well-known for her cute and bubbly personality, constant smile, and of course, her bright blonde, slicked back, high ponytail.

It was only years later when her mother bragged about all of the "sacrifices" she made to be successful on Dance Moms that people discovered JoJo Siwa was not a blonde at all. She had naturally light brown hair, which she described as "brown woots" when she was little, and her mom started to bleach it blonde when JoJo was just 2 years old.
