A massive gilded statue of President Donald Trump installed at his Miami golf course is definitely not a "golden calf" to be worshipped, the pastor who led a dedication ceremony for the eyebrow-raising effigy insisted Friday.

The fact that the pastor/grifter had to explicitly claim "no, we're not worshipping a false idol like it appears" means he knows it looks really, really, bad.

The pastor is correct about it not being a "golden calf". MAGAts are worshipping a golden ass, instead.
