He looks taller in that picture than he does on TV.

I'll assume it's to scale equal to his hand size.

Apparently we were one of the "lucky" five:

Naked Donald Trump statue appears in Union Square, other U.S. cities

UNION SQUARE, Manhattan — A naked statue of Donald Trump appeared Thursday in Union Square, attracting a swarm of people and posts on social media.

The statue quickly drew a large crowd of gawkers who snapped pictures and struck poses with the figure. By 1:30 p.m., it had been taken away by crews with the Parks Department.

A plaque at the foot of the statue read, "The emperor has no balls," a nod to Hans Christian Andersen's book "The Emperor's New Clothes" about a pair of weavers who create dressings that are invisible to those who are unfit or incompetent for their position.

Similar Trump statues appeared in cities across the country: in Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco and Cleveland.

The figure was complete with realistic peach-colored skin, a protruding stomach, Trump's signature coif and detailed genitalia.

He is looking to be the biggest looser in the history of American politics. Why are they kicking him when he is down?

Is there any better (or safer) time to kick someone than when they are down and unable to defend themself?

Although in Trump's case he deserves every bit of it.  When you continue to paint bulls-eyes on yourself, you shouldn't be surprised when someone takes aim at them.

Dressings?

Only the Grauniad could come up with a headline like this;

Ageist and body-shaming Trump statue falls short as art and satire

Five effigies of the Republican nominee were installed across the US with satiricial intent that looks more like unfunny revulsion toward bodily differences

Imagine if someone did the same to Hillary?
just sayin'

I'm surprised no one has remarked about the message on the hat as shown in the picture in the original post — "Make America LGBTQ Again" — so I will.

What's with this "again" bullshit?  This country was never openly accepting of homosexuals or other so-called 'deviant' behavior, and the LGBTQIAPK contingent — the 'alphabet coalition' (if I may be permitted to coin a term) — should be fully aware of that.

Nightmares for a year.

I'd much rather see Hillary in the nude than Trump.
Hell, if I wanted to see what a fat naked white guy looks like, I'd just stand in front of a mirror.
