    The Emperor Has No Balls

    OMG, this is too much.

    On Thursday morning, residents of five major cities woke up to find large naked statues of Donald Trump standing in public places.

    The project, which is called “The Emperor Has No B—s,” was put on by a group called INDECLINE, according to The Washington Post.

    The statues were placed in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Cleveland and Seattle.

    According to a spokesman for the group, first reported by The Washington Post, the naked Trumps were inspired by the fairy tale “The Emperor’s New Clothes.”

    The artist, who goes by Ginger, previously designed monsters for haunted houses.

    “When the guys approached me, it was all because of my monster-making abilities,” the artist told The Washington Post about the request to design the statues from INDECLINE.

    “Trump is just yet another monster, so it was absolutely in my wheelhouse to be able to create these monstrosities.”



    :rofl:



    For those that must, here are the rest of the pics...

    Update 4:29 p.m.: Parks Department spokesperson Sam Biederman provided us with the following statement regarding the Trump statue:
    NYC Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no matter how small.
    New York is the best city on earth, and don't you forget it.

    Brilliant. Nicely done, Mr. Biederman.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Why. Why is it that every time I sit down with a cup of coffee, some priceless gem comes along begging me to spit up the most recent mouthful. I've gotten wise to it though - I don't take a drink now till after I've opened the thread. I'm SO glad I did. Especially this time. ;D

    Whether you like the guy or not, you have to admit that's pretty dang funny!

    Now if he was smart he'd pick up on it and turn it to his advantage. Something like "Come on Hillary, your turn!"

    But how is "smart" part of the equation?

    INDECLINE may actually do a Hillary.

    It would be most appropriate for this election, since both candidates leave so much to be desired in their own special ways

    What can you say? "The statue doesn't have an erection, at least not without assistance"

    I wonder if you can turn these out on a 3D printer? Better than a garden gnome! Or put one in the middle of a field to scare away the birds. Might sour the milk in cows so be careful!!
