Titled \u201cIn Honor of a Lifetime of Sexual Assault\u201d, the monument, showing Trump smiling and holding his hand in a suggestive manner, quotes from the infamous 2005 recording \u2013 leaked in 2016 \u2013 in which Trump is heard bragging about sexually assaulting women.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The monument was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phillyvoice.com\/donald-trump-statue-philly-maja-park\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">quickly removed<\/a>, Philly Voice reported.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">On Sunday, a similar satirical statue was found in Portland, Oregon. It was beheaded that day and further damaged by a Portland city council candidate and Trump supporter, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koin.com\/news\/portland\/city-council-candidate-removes-sexual-assault-plaque-from-pop-up-trump-statue\/?utm_campaign=socialflow&amp;utm_source=t.co&amp;utm_medium=referral\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">filmed himself<\/a> chipping away at the base of the statue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Underneath the statues in Philadelphia and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/portland\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Portland<\/a> is a plaque with Trump\u2019s brag about his status and how it allows him to sexually assault women: \u201cI just start kissing them. It\u2019s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don\u2019t even wait. And when you\u2019re a star they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The two statues, in Philadelphia and Portland, were placed behind, and next to, nude sculptures sanctioned by the respective cities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The Access Hollywood tape was recorded in 2005 and published by the Washington Post in 2016, a month before that year\u2019s election. The tape\u2019s release shook up the election, with some Republicans withdrawing their support for Trump.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Although Trump has never been criminally charged for sexual offenses, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2024\/10\/28\/trump-sexual-misconduct-allegations-women\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">27 women<\/a> have accused him of sexual assault. Last year, a jury <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/trump-rape-carroll-trial-fe68259a4b98bb3947d42af9ec83d7db\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">found Trump liable<\/a> for sexually abusing writer E Jean Carroll in a civil suit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The recent Philadelphia and Portland statues follow other satirical Trump-related statues, found throughout the country.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">In Washington on Monday, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/oct\/29\/neo-nazi-tiki-torch-statue\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">a tiki torch statue<\/a> titled \u201cThe Donald J Trump Enduring Flame\u201d was placed a few blocks away from the White House. The statue evokes the white nationalist Unite the Right rally from 2017, in which neo-Nazis marched in Charlottesville, Virginia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The first satirical statue, installed last Thursday also in Washington, depicts a bronze <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/oct\/25\/poop-pelosi-desk-statue-january-6-insurrectionists\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">pile of feces<\/a> on Nancy Pelosi\u2019s desk and references the January 6 attack. After Trump supporters marched on the Capitol that day, some broke into the building, attempting to overturn the 2020 election.<\/p>\n<figure data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.NewsletterSignupBlockElement\" class=\" dcr-173mewl\"><a data-ignore=\"global-link-styling\" href=\"#EmailSignup-skip-link-11\" class=\"dcr-jzxpee\">skip past newsletter promotion<\/a><\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"newsletter promotion\" class=\"dcr-av5vqf\">\n<div class=\"dcr-10et71f\">\n<p class=\"dcr-rsfwa\">Sign up to <span>The Stakes \u2014 US Election Edition<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"dcr-1xjndtj\">The Guardian guides you through the chaos of a hugely consequential presidential election<\/p>\n<p><gu-island name=\"SecureSignup\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{&quot;newsletterId&quot;:&quot;the-stakes-us-election-edition&quot;,&quot;successDescription&quot;:&quot;The Guardian guides you through the chaos of a hugely consequential presidential election&quot;}\"\/><span class=\"dcr-1eusqlu\"><strong>Privacy Notice: <\/strong>Newsletters may contain info about charities, online ads, and content funded by outside parties.
