day EIGHT HUNDRED and FIFTY NINE

**Got this one in the ol' WineDrunk inbox and found it pretty interesting
I'll let the creator explain***

This past Fall I co-curated an exhibition in Lisbon, Portugal, Tributaries, that opened on Sept. 30th and ran for ten weeks, under the auspices of the international artist's cooperative, Urban Dialogues. While in Lisbon, I went into the oldest continuous bookstore in the world, Chiado Bertrand Bookstore, that was founded in 1732 (the year of George Washington's birth). I found this Portuguese published book about Donald Trump that I immediately bought because a redacted title of the book jumped out at me, O Me Too.

When I got home I was able to also redact A Trump Pee Poem an as I progressed down the book cover, I was also able to redact I Go More Anal and then I placed DJ-45 in front of a golden wall.
