It’s been over a year since President Trump’s name was first spoken in the same sentence as the phrase ‘golden shower’ — but for some, the comedic power of the alleged ‘pee tape’ has yet to grow old.
In fact, for novelty site Zooheads, it is the joke that keeps on giving; this month, the e-retailer is debuting a $5,000 golden shower head that is molded into the shape of the Donald’s face.
The pricey ‘Trump Showerhead’ is not even made with real gold, but rather a gilded chrome — however the company has vowed to donate 10 per cent of sales to Planned Parenthood.
No peeing in the shower! The novelty site Zooheads is selling this gold-colored Trump-shaped chrome shower head for a staggering $5,000
A ‘tan’ version: They also have a ‘Cheeto’-colored one for $30, and 10% of sales from each version will be donated to Planned Parenthood
Living the dream! The site joked that buying the shower head is ‘your chance to take a shower with the President of the United States of America’
If it weren’t for the Steele dossier connotations, the shower head might have even been something that 45 himself would put in his home, since the President’s love of gilded home decor is well-known.
However, it’s clear from the item’s description that it’s not meant to evoke flattering images of Trump.
‘Opportunities for truly unique life experiences don’t come often, so that’s why you should take a minute to fully digest this one: here is your chance to take a shower with the President of the United States of America,’ the description reads.
‘Modeled to accurately portray President Trump’s famous puckered “O” face, this showerhead is guaranteed to soak you with the full, messy, ineffective stream of whatever is spewing out of it’s mouth.’
In addition to the faux-gold one, the Zooheads is also selling a less-expensive version for $29.95, which they call ‘Cheeto-colred’.
More options: The company also 3D-prints shower heads in other animal shapes
‘Available in two unique colors, Gold Chrome and Cheeto, there’s an option for either class — the wealthy and everyone else,’ says the brand.
‘Oh, and before we forget, help to bring manufacturing back to the US without getting off your couch — yes, you’re damn right, these are all made in America.
‘So pull out your wallet, buy a showerhead, take a golden shower with Donald Trump, and help to Make America Clean Again! [Disclosure: This is a real product, and 10% of sales go to Planned Parenthood.]’
Each shower head is 3D-printed in Brooklyn, and the brand promises easy installation. Zooheads also makes several other shower heads in funny shapes, including unicorns, dragons, T-Rex dinosaurs, elephants, dolphins, monkeys, sharks, lions, alligators, and eagles.
The launch of the golden Trump shower head comes just days after the president met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who denied in a press conference that he had people watching Trump when he visited Russia years ago.
Nope: This week, Russian President Vladimir Putin denied in a press conference that his government collected information on Trump when he visited Moscow in 2013
‘Before he announced that he will run for presidency, [Trump] was of no interest for us,’ he explained.
‘He was a rich person, but, well, there’s plenty of rich persons in the United States. He was in the construction business.
‘He organized the beauty pageants. But no, it would never occur to anyone that he would think of running for president.’
In 2016, however, Christopher Steele, a former head of the Russia Desk for MI6, wrote memos that indicated otherwise. He wrote that, when staying at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Moscow in 2013, Trump hired prostitutes to urinate in front of him on a bed in the hotel room.
The report indicated that FSB, the Russian intelligence agency, had information on this incident that could be used to blackmail Trump.
