Ohio artist Alan Cottrill has created a two-story bronze statue showing President Trump raising his fist in the air and yelling “Fight!” in the iconic moment after he was grazed by an assassin’s bullet.

It is hoped that the statue will be unveiled at his inauguration in January.

In July, would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to climb on top of a roof next to President Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania, rally before firing and grazing Trump’s ear,

Two rallygoers were injured, and former fire chief for Buffalo Township, Corey Comperatore was tragically killed as he shielded and protected his family.

In the chaos that followed, Trump defied death and raised his fist, shouting, “Fight! Fight! Fight!” as Secret Service agents escorted him to safety.

The iconic moment is being memorialized with the gigantic statue.

Breitbart reports:

Crypto investors with the project $PATRIOT commissioned Ohio artist Alan Cottrill to create the bronze statue after Trump was nearly assassinated in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, 2024. Trump’s pro-crypto policies also helped motivate backers to support the project, Breitbart News has learned.

Cottrill is working to capture Trump’s courage and defiance immediately after being shot. In iconic fashion, Trump rose with a bloodied face and pumped his fist as he repeatedly shouted, “Fight!” to his supporters before U.S. Secret Service agents rushed him off stage.

Cottrill, who also created the Thomas Edison statue in Statuary Hall in the U.S. Capitol, said in a statement shared with Breitbart News that this is the largest figure he has ever set out to create.

“I’ve sculpted and cast 400 life size or larger bronze statues across America and the Patriot Statue is our largest single figure to date,” he said.

Breitbart also shared exclusive photos of the statue in progress.
