Effigies of Donald Trump were burned during Easter “burning of Judas” festivities.
It’s clear Trump isn’t exactly particularly popular in Mexico, especially after his infamous comments about illegal immigrant rapists and criminals, as well as his campaign pledge that he’ll make Mexico pay for the border wall.
The artist behind one of the effigies told Sky News, “Since he started his campaign and began talking about immigrants, Mexico, and Mexicans, I said ‘I’ve got to get this guy.'”
You can see video of one of the effigy burnings here, via Ruptly:
If Pope Benedict were in better health and still leading the flock, I’m betting he would say something in the press about this inappropriate Easter celebration in Mexico. Pope Francis; “Who am I to judge?”.
I believe you are confused.
The delusional con man is occupying the oval orafice.
Notice that no one is burning effigies of Cruz. I wonder why that is?
Good point.
Mexicans furious at suggestion they should have to respect US borders and immigration laws.
Can we burn mexicans in effigy?
They just keep endearing themselves to us.
This is disingenuous.
There is also an Uhbama effigy that has a Cuban cigar. And some ISIS figure. Probably even more characters not shown on FOX.
Seems a bit balanced to me.
There is also an Obama effigy. This is a very biased report.
And the latest news is that Mexicans disrupted a Trump rally in Temecula, San Diego County. They were all raising Mexican flags in protest.
Can we burn Mexican flags here, or is that unconstitutional?
When you’re catching flak, you’re on target.
Go, Trump!
And the minefield just got 5 miles deeper into Mexico....
Oh wait, that’s IF I were President.
What complaint do they have with Obama?
I don’t know, perhaps they didn’t like his Cuba visit.
All gringos look alike./s
There can be a wall...Congress would probably never fund it anyways, but it can be built if we wanted to. Actually I read last week some architecture organization is having a contest for designs for the birder wall and the winner with the best concept gets 5,000 dollars. It’s a world wide contest.
So.....Mexico is supposed to be so religious is burning effigies of a fellow, human being on Easter? How sacreligious of them!
“Probably done by the rapists, drug dealers, coyotes and other various criminals.”
Most likely. The wetbacks could use the work the wall
will provide.
I flushed an effigy of Enrique Peñis Nieto this morning
at about 6am.
