After Donald Trump’s Mexico-bashing comments this week, Mexicans are engaging in a little Trump-bashing of their own.
Call it revenge, Mexican style. Artisan Dalton Avalos Ramirez has launched a Trump pinata, featuring The Donald’s inimitable hairstyle and a big, big mouth.
The papier-mache figure will come in a variety of sizes. The first was on display Friday at the Pinatas Ramirez store in the border city of Reynosa.
Avalos Ramirez says he created it “because of the hatred Trump expressed for the Mexican people.”
He said “people want to burn the pinatas, they want to break them
One of the commenters said “this is the first time I’ve seen a pinata that looked prettier than the original.”
Trump, being the thickheaded egomaniac he is sent these tweets this week-end:
Thank you @AnnCoulter for your nice words. The U.S. is becoming a dumping ground for the world. Pols don’t get it. Make America Great Again!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 21, 2015
Druggies, drug dealers, rapists and killers are coming across the southern border. When will the U.S. get smart and stop this travesty?— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 20, 2015
I like Mexico and love the spirit of Mexican people, but we must protect our borders from people, from all over, pouring into the U.S.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 20, 2015
