The life-size sculpture near Sevnica in central Slovenia, where Melanija Knavs was born in 1970, was unveiled in 2020 during US President Donald Trump’s first term in office.

It replaced a wooden statue that had been set on fire earlier that year.

    I didn’t say that she deserves a statue. She’s a horrible person. I said that you don’t have to moralize. Her being a woman that “spread her legs”, as you put it, has NOTHING to do with any of this. It’s just a thing you thought would be a low-hanging insult.

      Honestly not really. The sad thing is that some of the highest fruit as far as anyone knows anything about her. That’s how undeserving she is.

      I think you are hyper focusing trying to read things into other things there were never there or intended. The point wasn’t to say that she was undeserving because she did that. But only that she was undeserving because she hasn’t done anything more than that. Anything more than just about anyone else. That said after some thought I absolutely think I could have ordered it better. And can acknowledge fault in at least that much. So I will go back and try to amend it to a better state.
