The anti-Donald Trump British-born street artist known as Plastic Jesus has struck again. This time, the California-based provocateur has erected a miniature “border wall” around the Republican presidential nominee’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
According to L.A. Weekly, the wall went up on Tuesday, the same day Trump officially clinched the Republican presidential nomination. The wall came complete with fake barbed-wire protection, miniature American flags and signs pasted on its sides reading, “Stop making stupid people famous.”
Tourists on Hollywood Boulevard could be seen gawking at the display, including in a photograph posted to the artist’s Instagram page.
“Hollywood sight-seers on the famous walk of fame were confronted w The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has repeatedly resisted calls to remove Trump’s star from the Walk.
“The answer is no,” Hollywood Chamber of Commerce president and CEO Leron Gubler told Breitbart News last July. “Once a Star has been added to the Walk, it is considered a part of the historic fabric of the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Because of this, we have never removed a star from the Walk.”
Plastic Jesus is apparently no fan of Trump; in April, the artist posted a series of “No Trump Parking” signs all around Los Angeles. The artist has also previously poked fun at the Kardashian family, and erected a giant cocaine-snorting Oscar statue on Hollywood Boulevard ahead of last year’s Academy Awards.

And if I went up and kicked it over, the ‘artist’ should be okay with it.
And of course, first thing the media does is try to make him famous.
“...and [the ‘artist’] erected a giant cocaine-snorting Oscar statue on Hollywood Boulevard ahead of last year’s Academy Awards.”
Well, they say there’s SOME truth in all art...
Awww... isn’t that cute... “Plastic Jesus”...
His father and mother must be SO proud of their little precious little Snowflake....
A couple of discarded boards and some dollar store accoutrements - it sure doesn’t take much talent to claim to be an artist nowadays.
and who’s gonna be the first wino or blind costumed charater to bulldoze it!
That is a trip hazard to pedestrians, exposing the city to lawsuits.
It should be removed immediately.
looks good to me...sort of a frame really...the little flags and barbed wire are cute
Nope, ever since some sicko put a dime store replica of Jesus in a jar of urine. Great art that was to the art crowd.
Leftists play their silly games
“Plastic Soldiers in a miniature dirt War”
The best part is no illegal aliens inside of it.
This is a YUUUUGE liability for the city. I hope an illegal alien trips over it and breaks their leg. Nice law$uit since the city failed to remove it because it mocks a Republican.
Why does he have a star there?
If that's a "work of art" I must be Rembrandt because I can do far better wood work and finishing than that piece of crap....
