Texas museum removes wax Trump figure after visitors kept punching it

A wax museum in downtown San Antonio, Texas, removed its wax statue of former President Trump after it was repeatedly vandalized, the San Antonio Express-News reports.

Louis Tussaud's Waxworks pulled the figure from public view after it sustained multiple beatings, and transferred it into storage.

The scratches on the Trump figure's face were especially damaging, said Clay Stewart, the regional manager of parent company Ripley's Entertainment.

"When it's a highly political figure, attacks can be a problem," Stewart said, according to the Express-News.

The effigy of the former president likely won't return to the display floor until the new wax figure of President Biden is added into the rotation. It's currently still under production in Orlando, Fla., Stewart notes.

Following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, Trump left office with record low approval ratings. A February poll from YouGov and The Economist found that Trump was named the worst president in U.S. history.

His base has remained strong in the two months since he left the White House, however. Trump is the top contender for a 2024 presidential GOP race, with a recent survey obtained by The Hill finding that he gets the support of 51 percent of GOP voters ahead of the upcoming primaries.

The same survey revealed that 88 percent of voters registered Republicans or who affiliate as Republicans approve of Trump's presidency.

lmao

That's hilarious.

Changing gears... GOP needs to get to work on finding a new face of the party and getting that person out there.

Just like anything else, damaging private property just isn't right.. Not the right thing to do.

But yeah, it's kinda funny

And what happens if it’s Cruz or Hawley?

Then they're screwed.

Well, for one it wouldn't be someone new, and secondly that means we'll be seeing Trump again in 2024. Blech

One would think that after Trump cost them both The White House and the senate they would have learned by now.

:: shrug ::

And the house 2 years ago.

that was my thoughts... it's not right and if you get caught you should pay for it... but I also think it's hilarious..

They could put one of those arcade punching bags in his place and it probably wouldn't get punched as much! But a coin operated punching bag with Trump's face on it might be the best business you could own in 2021. lmao while smh

Silly and childish.

Like calling COVID the kung flu?

Yes like that.

Like, calling some one fat? And orange? An orangutan? And all the other slurs that were hurled?

Orangutans aren’t a race And the truth always hurts those who lie.

Yes, the attacks on fat people, orange people and orangutans has increased "hugely" since Trump took office.

You do understand inferring how Asians are responsible for killing over half a million Americans is different than the things you listed, right? Of course you do.

At least that one was somewhat clever.

It’s how we know donny didn’t coin the phrase. While racist in its intent, indicative of trump, it’s too clever for him to come up with.

People struck Christ also, before hanging him on the Cross. They struck him and said prophesy, prophesy who beat you.
Yea, in general, people are sick.

Not sicker than comparing trump to Christ.

I'm happy to see the wackado pendulum swinging back towards religious dogma and away from the Q conspiracies Throw.

That is progress my friend.

I’m not one for making absolutist arguments, but there is literally no comparison that could be made between Trump and Jesus. None, other than the fact they were both human males on earth.
