It comes from the group behind the popular Trump-Epstein friendship statue and will be up until Friday.
WASHINGTON ā€” A statue depicting President Donald Trump and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as Jack and Rose in an iconic “Titanic” scene appeared on the National Mall Tuesday.
It comes from Secret Handshake, the organization behind the infamous Trump-Epstein friendship statue, which appeared on the National Mall at the end of September 2025.
This new installation is called “KING OF THE WORLD.” On each side, a plaque reads, “The tragic love story between Jack and Rose was built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches. This monument honors the bond between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, a friendship seemingly built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches.”
Secret Handshake said there are also 10 giant banners along the sides honoring the pair.Ā
“Why? Because 2026 has been a banner year for President Trump,” Secret Handshake told WUSA9. “Meaning.. he’s added giant banners of his face to federal buildings all across DC. We want to help him on his mission by tossing a few of our own in the mix.”
The Trump-Epstein friendship statue showed the president and the disgraced financier holding hands and skipping. It became a popular piece of protest art in the fall, when it appeared on the National Mall and was subsequently hauled off in the middle of the night by U.S. Park Police for an alleged permit violation just one day later. Then a week later it reappeared and stayed up for another four days.Ā
Since then, Secret Handshake has put up other installations. In January, a 10-foot-tall birthday card with the message and sketch Trump allegedly sent to Epstein appeared on the National Mall in time for Epstein’s birthday. Visitors could sign the card themselves. And the friendship statue made other appearances, showing up in front of the 14th and V Street Northwest location of Busboys and Poets as a batch of Epstein emails were released in November.
The newest statue will be up until Friday, March 13.Ā
