The Latest: Can’t unsee: Naked Trump statues in major cities
Source: Washington Post
Its Donald Trump like hes never been seen before.
Life-size naked statues of the Republican presidential nominee greeted passers-by in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle and Cleveland on Thursday. They are the brainchild of an activist collective called INDECLINE, which has spoken out against Trump before.
In a statement, the collective said the hope is that Trump is never installed in the most powerful political and military position in the world.
The statues were created by an artist in Cleveland. They are of a stern-faced Trump with his hands folded over a bulging belly. Some parts of male genitalia are visible while others seemingly are missing.

Sorry, but this is just too funny not to share:
The Emperor Has No Clothes (or balls).

These protesters wanted to humiliate 'Emperor' Trump. So they took off his clothes.

(23,973 posts)It's only funny when those purportedly on "our side" do stupid stuff like this.
Displays such as this do nothing but cheapen the political discourse.
Pretty much the same thing that has happened to this site over the last few years.
Posters who initiated actual political discussions have either have left or just no longer post now, discussion has devolved into mocking the other side, which really doesn't further the Democratic agenda in any way.

(17,573 posts)Yeah it's good for a little juvenile chuckling, but I don't think it really helps.
The only people laughing are people who weren't going to vote for the douchebag anyway. And it just lowers the bar even further for the conduct of democracy in this election season. (just when you thought the bar couldn't go much lower).
