Reply To: The Golden Trump

To smerel: Let me put this in terms you might understand: Idols are a subset of statues. If someone makes a statue, and people bow down before it, the statue-maker unintentionally made an idol.

The intent of the brilliant opening post is to imply that Trump is a false god, and that Hashem will punish those who bow before Trump or a statue of Trump. You are free to disagree, but not by pretending that the golden statue is not an idol. (You are also free to bow down before it.)
