Sharper Image Steak Sale
2018
mixed media


On March 8, 2016, Donald Trump sat in front of a beautiful pile of vacuum sealed steaks at a news conference, declaring them to be Trump steaks. For a brief moment in time, Trump attempted, but failed to sell steaks on Sharper Image, and in fact, these steaks were imposters, not made by him. This inane, useless moment in time would disappear amongst the much larger and dangerous lies he would go on to tell, but here, it is forever memorialized.
