China mall erects giant Trump dog statue

BEIJING — A mall in northern China has installed a larger-than-life canine statue with more than a passing resemblance to US President Donald Trump to welcome the coming Year of the Dog.

The giant pooch towers above shoppers in Taiyuan, capital of Shanxi province, sporting a slick golden pompadour, angled brows and a red scarf with one index finger raised in a distinctly Trumpian manner.

As he was born in 1946, Trump, who has been accused of having more bark than bite, is a dog under the Chinese zodiac—a trait which he shares with his predecessors George W. Bush and Bill Clinton.

Those born in the Year of the Dog, according to Chinese astrology, are forthright and extremely loyal, in addition to having a strong sense of justice. But they can also be stubborn, irritable and easily angered.

Last year the mall erected a large Trump-like rooster, which inspired numerous replicas, including a giant inflatable one placed not far from the White House this summer.

It’s kind of cute. Like a bulldog or maybe a boxer.

That answers the question, boxers or briefs?...

I too found the Christmas tree interesting more than the dog. Christianity is growing in China and the government is trying to live with it. Will there be religious freedom in Chins in the year of the dog?

If there was an “Obama dog,” it would be sniffing another dog’s butt.

Not quite... the other dog would have mounted the Obama dog and rode it like a b**tch.

This f*cking piece of sh*t still has a communist scarf on.

This isn’t modeled after our President.
