Working Arcade Cabinets With Game Mocking Trump’s War on Iran Appear in DC
Three apparently fully functional arcade cabinets featuring a bespoke, “ultra-patriotic” video game have been installed at the DC War Memorial.
“Operation Epic Furious: Strait to Hell” is the work of the Secret Handshake, an art collective that is also responsible for several satirical statues featuring President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein that have been erected on the National Mall.
Because the game, also available online, is about war in the Middle East, there is no way to win. But you can lose by trying to hold Melania Trump's hand.
