Since arriving in the U.K., Donald Trump has been hit by a series of pranks, most of which have involved Jeffrey Epstein-related images and iconography being projected onto buildings, including Windsor Castle, and to other places near where Trump is visited. The British pranks have even led to the arrests of four people.

Meanwhile, Trump has been hit with a similar prank, closer to home.

The Good Liars, a prankster group, this week trolled Trump right at Trump Tower in New York.

“Jason Selvig on Tuesday entered the lobby of Manhattan’s Trump Tower armed with a framed copy of the suggestive 2003 birthday letter and drawing that Trump allegedly sent Epstein, but which he denies authoring,” The Daily Beast reported about the prank.

“In the photo, Selvig holds up the written message—outlined curiously by a female form—to a marble wall beside the skyscraper’s directory.”

Back in July, the same group played a similar prank, arraying pictures of Trump and Epstein throughout the gift shop at Trump Tower:

The group also released a video of the placement of the photo:

Trump was not home at the time, and indeed, the president no longer spends all that much time at Trump Tower, which was his primary residence and business headquarter prior to his first presidency. Trump switched his residence to Florida and Mar-a-Lago in 2019, during his first term.

There’s no indication that Trump himself is aware of the Trump Tower stunt or has commented on it.

It is known, however, that the president is not a fan of that image from the Epstein “birthday book,” even going so far as to sue the Wall Street Journal, earlier this year, when the newspaper reported on the book’s existence, and Trump’s contributions to it, with the suit alleging that Trump’s page in the book is not real. However, a Congressional committee later obtained the book from Epstein’s estate and released it, seeming to confirm its authenticity.
