“Destroy the star a hundred times .... it will be repaired/replaced every time and TRUMP IS STILL PRESIDENT.”

Actually, the odds are it won’t. This is coming out of somebody’s budget. At some point, they’ll decide they don’t have the budget to keep replacing it. The hole will be filled in or go to somebody else. That’s the way economics, and, maybe, politics works.

As an example of how this works, Louis Farrakhan had his million man march. He claimed a million attendees. The Parks Department had been keeping track of crowds for historic reasons for decades using photographs and statistical analysis. They said there were fewer than 100,000 attending. Farrakhan sued them to get them to change the number. Parks doesn’t have a budget for lawsuits, so they changed the number and never again made any crowd size estimates. (Or, so I have read.)

Until Bill Cosby’s star is removed, I disagree.

(His has been vandalized, too)
