City of Chicago just erected a not-so-subtle gold statue in front of Trump Tower
June 29, 2017 | BPR Wire | Print Article   
 

The city of Chicago installed a 5 foot tall statue in front of Trump Tower Monday that spells out “REAL FAKE” in gold paint.

The statue is located at the intersection of Wabash Avenue and Wacker Drive, just across the river from Trump Tower. Chicago’s Trump Tower has been a spot where protestors gather and express their feelings towards President Donald Trump.

I thought Chicago was broke.  Yet, it has money for these shenanigans?

I wonder if the company that owns that building might have a case to sue the city?   slander, defamation?

So this is more fake news. It isn't in front of Trump Tower.

From the article:
"The city of Chicago installed a 5 foot tall statue in front of Trump Tower Monday that spells out “REAL FAKE” in gold paint."

Sounds ok to me.

When Chicago goes broke, and goes to DC looking for a bailout, the president ought to respond with a tweet back:
"Chicago... real tough luck. Drop dead."

That's what I thought.  I guess they have priorities.
