Trump tombstone art project on display in NYC following assassination attempts

It’s the art of hate.

After two assassination attempts on Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, a Brooklyn artist thought it was a good idea to resurrect his 500-pound art project: a tombstone with the former commander-in-chief’s name on it.

And it’s got liberals cheering.

“There’s been very happy people, celebratory people,” creator Brian Andrew Whiteley told The Post. “We just have people screaming, yes, yes, yes, dancing, taking photos of groups of people at a time with the tombstone, celebrating.”

The “Legacy Stone” made of Vermont granite, features Trump’s name and birth year, but no date of death.

An inscription at the base reads “Made America Hate Again.”

Whiteley originally created the sculpture in May 2016, during Trump’s first run for president — raising eyebrows and earning a call from the FBI and the US Secret Service — when he placed it in the Sheep Meadow in Central Park.

The stone was confiscated by the NYPD and spent four months in a Queens evidence locker before being returned to him. It still has markings and evidence tags from law enforcement.

The artist insisted the headstone was not a call for violence.

“Honestly, it was about Trump and his ego … I felt like this was a way to foreshadow his own legacy, kind of like a Dickens’ Christmas Story, foreshadowing where his legacy could be,” Whiteley said inside the Satellite Art Show gallery on Broome Street, where the stone is currently being exhibited.

Trump fans are not amused.

“This so-called artist thinks this stunt is edgy, but it’s not. Edgy would be going to Iran with art to promote women’s rights at the doorstep of the Ayatollah. Instead, he’s displaying this tombstone after two assassination attempts on President Trump on top of the ongoing Iranian plots to kill him. This behavior is dangerous,” said Rep. Mike Walz (R-Fla.) said of the art exhbit.

Whiteley condemned the multiple attempts that had been made on Trump’s life and said his piece was not intended in any way to promote violence.

“I think we should kick his ass at the ballot box,” Whiteley said.
