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.

More publicity for Trump!

I had no idea he had a star - I think this only helps Trump and imoroves name recognition and a reminder of how different he is than the typical politician.
