Statue depicting Trump, Epstein as Jack, Rose from 'Titanic' appears on National Mall
The Secret Handshake’s 12-foot statue satirizes Trump and Epstein’s alleged friendship, drawing on DOJ files and sparking public engagement on the National Mall.
- On Tuesday, March 10, 2026, an anonymous collective known as The Secret Handshake installed a 12-foot golden statue titled 'King of the World' on the National Mall, depicting President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein in a 'Titanic' pose.
- This installation marks the third satirical display by The Secret Handshake, following the 'Best Friends Forever' statue in September and a January replica of a birthday note Trump allegedly signed for Epstein.
- The plaque references 'Titanic' tropes like 'luxurious travel' and 'raucous parties,' while ten surrounding banners stamped 'Make America Safe Again' feature photos of Trump and Epstein, satirizing the administration's recent interest in government building decor.
- White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson dismissed the work as a partisan stunt, while visitors on the National Mall expressed mixed reactions ranging from praise to scorn.
- The installation remains on the National Mall until Friday, March 13, 2026, with a redacted permit end date, sustaining public attention on the Justice Department's Epstein files and unresolved allegations regarding Trump.
