Happy Headlines
We have another Friday Happy Headlines for your weekend enjoyment.
Tussaud’s Waxworks in Alamo Plaza in San Antonio had to remove their Donald Trump figure because …
… people kept punching it in the face.
Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks in Alamo Plaza has packed away a figure of the former reality show star-turned-former president after visitors took out four years’ worth of frustrations on it.
Have a good weekend.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
I wouldn’t have recognized that statue as his majesty if it weren’t identified. They should make a “murderers row” section and put those three plus others in it!
1I agree, that really doesn’t look like him to me–for one thing, not orange enough.
I’m not surprised that some people took frustration out on him. I think that Democrats could do fundraisers with time with one of those bo-bo inflated clowns with Trump’s face painted on it or a pie in face carnival booth with person in Trump mask.
There is a LOT of really built up anger needing a healthy expression valve.
2He looks more like Bo Jo to me…
3My first thought: What’s George Plimpton doing with Putin and Kim?
4The museum is lucky someone didn’t try to light it up with a Bic.
5They should make a silicone rubber face, and charge $5 to punch it. They’d make a fortune.
6RepulSion at #6:
Think how much people would pay to punch the real thing.
7Not an accurate figure: the hair makes him look like a Beach Boy.
8Who designed the dummy? Looks like something ‘doctor’ Ronny pulled out of Donnie’s fevered imagination.
Papa @6, we were thinking a head to foot wick should have been fitted into it, lit, then have a contest to guess the hour when the molten puddle would most resemble Donnie’s actual dimensions.
9Was his figure displayed next to Putin and Kim? If so, very fitting.
10Great big laugh here.
11RepubAnon @ 6 You beat me to it
12Buttermilk Sky@4, You’re absolutely right. It does look more like Plimpton than hair furor.
13People punched the figure in the face, and it was removed? That’s all it took?
Maybe the House should have thought of that. Bring real Trump into the Capitol rotunda during the impeachment trial, charge admission to the general public and let ’em have at it. There may have been a more desirable and permanent outcome, with Trump quickly carted off, and packed away in the back of a Capitol basement broom closet, behind the mops. With a lock on the door.
14There’s such a mask on Amazon…

They made the hands too big anyway.
16Backpfeifengesicht (German: a face in need of a fist) Turns out it’s the Germans who have the best words!!!!!
17OK. That came damn close to making my day!
18Love to have a mask that looks like this!

19Ormond Otvos @ 15 : I went to the link and selected the fifth one (the ordering may depend on your search history, so the list may not match what others get).
The first review (4/5 stars) is priceless. To quote:
“Stars are of course based on the electoral and not the popular vote.
“The mask has a strong latex smell and so you might not want to put it on straight from the bag. Let it air out for a few days. Let it outgas.
“Also, I felt like I would suffocate in it. It needs a mouth hole. My brain was so deprived of Oxygen that I had this irrational urge to go on twitter and tweet random crazy stuff all day. For a split second, I knew exactly what Cofefe meant.
“Seriously… If you want to know what it is like to be our supreme commander and chief– If you want to walk a tiny mile in his tiny shoes, put on this mask. It is better than virtual reality. You won’t be able to see. Your nose will be inundated with the smell of your own gas, and your brain will be deprived of oxygen. “
20Fred @ 19: Maybe it’s just me, but that reeeaally shoulda come with some kinda warning label about disturbing images.
21That can’t be unseen.
RepubAnon @ #6:
My apologies for your name change in my comment. I take responsibility, but blame spell correct.
