link A couple of naked Trump "statues" popped up in SF. Then I read one popped up in LA. I wonder if more are going to pop up in other cities. Hope so. The attached article has a video of one of the naked Trumps being removed. IMO whoever made these statues did a good job.

Part of me feels that this crosses the line of decency for a Presidential campaign.
Then my fightin' side pipes in and says that Trump, himself, with his crude remarks about *size* and personal jibes to others, lowered the bar to this point.

The best part is NYC Parks' response.

It is so wrong, but I am looking forward more to his reaction than to the actual event that will result in his inevitable response. No matter where you land with Trump, I think most are in agreement that his ignore button is kind of broken.

Apparently, at least one of the locations is also a Pokestop. Now that is funny.

I am definitely not a Trump supporter, but I think this is wrong. Yes, he's an asshat and says assholian things, but at some point the rest of us should take the high road and let him bury his own damn self.

Sorry, I think it's disgusting. And I'm no fan of Donald Trump.

If it was anybody but Trump I might think someone had gone too far for a presidential candidate. But if anyone deserved it he does with his attitude about others.

I just clicked on an article about it. My mistake. I know it's just an artist representation or whatever, but still... I can't unsee it. Ack.

That was the artist's last straw, apparently. So, as long as HC doesn't do something along those lines, she's safe -- from this artist, at least.

I hate Trump! But I think this is not right! We would be and should be appalled if this was a statue of Hillary. Not right at all.

the irony..is the statue of trump in SF was put on the corner (sort of a small public plaza) where there were many nudist protesters for a year.. old men sitting around nude. protesting their right to be without clothes in one of the busiest intersections in town.. then they made nudity illegal without a special permit for events and parades.. we were all happy at that. right in the heart of Castro..

The best part is NYC Parks' response. Was just coming here to post it! I burst out laughing when they ran the story on the nightly news. NBC NY'S Chuck Scarborough was smirking when he read the statement- trying hard not to laugh. Just want to clarify that what I found funny was the NYC Park's Department response, not the statue.

Taking a line directly from Trump himself "he started it!"

I'm trying to understand if he is making an artistic statement about Trump, or if he is just bullying him.
I don't care for Trump at all, but this makes me uncomfortable. But then again, so does some very good art.

Can't wait for the naked Hillary statues next. I can, haha. That's not a sight I'd want to see either, assuming her body reflects her age. I don't even like seeing my own naked body!

This whole campaign crossed the line of decency a long time ago, due in great part to Trump's vulgar crassness. I personally think this is hysterical and would love to see how he likes being on the receiving end of the ultimate in vulgar crassness.
