NYDN: ...The grotesque model of Trump was claimed by gallery Bravin Lee, who said that the inflatable rat is “an enduring sign of resistance and ridicule.”

"I was always passing by these non-union construction sites on my bike and I saw these inflatable rats. I was amazed at how effective they were. I marveled at how disgusting they were," gallery owner John Post Lee told the Daily News.

The inflatable protest was funded through a Kickstarter, and Lee said that it was made in Brunwick, Ohio. Bravin Lee said they plan to keep the "rat" scurrying around to different events....

The artist who created the T-Rat is Jeffrey Beebe.

PS: I must take a bit of exception to calling the union rats 'disgusting'. Some of them are kinda cute. The cockroaches, however, are the stuff of nightmares!
