A Penigma - a mystery, under a pseudonym

 Damn, I wish this were up when all the statues were being torn down. I think my reaction was to sell the Civil War one to the French since they look like the ones for the Franco-Prussian War.

"Sell your losers to our losers."

I love to laugh at the crazy right wingers who insist that NOW that Rump is their temporary president, the other nations of the world are going to 'respect us' (by which they appear to mean fear us).

Yeah.

Not so much.  In fact these morons from the conned-servative ideology cannot name one country or subset of a region that now respects us more.

In the spirit of Chinese New Year, appropriately enough the year of the Rooster, behold the level of mockery with which the conned-servative temporary president is regarded:




Maybe it is just me, but that looks nothing to me like respect.  Rather to me it screams contempt for Rump.

From CNN:

A giant rooster sculpture, sporting the President-elect's signature hairdo and hand gestures, has been erected outside a shopping mall in Taiyuan, in China's northern Shanxi Province.

The sculpture was commissioned by the company that owns the mall and will be its mascot, Cao Mingliang, the deputy director of planning department from N1 ArtWalk Mall, told CNN.

Cao said a series of products and smaller replicas will be available for sale in the future, though some are already being sold on Taobao, the Chinese e-commerce giant owned by Alibaba.

Wei Qing, whose Shenghe Yangtai Business is selling replica roosters, told CNN he thought sculpture was hilarious.

"I think the rooster is very cute and funny, the hairstyle and eyebrows look very much like Donald Trump. I'm sure it will attract a lot of customers," he said.

At least four stores are selling the Trump rooster, with prices starting from $57 to a whopping $1,739 for a statue that's 32 feet tall.

This isn't even the first avian doppleganger Trump has had in China this year.

State-run People's Daily tweeted out an image of a bird sporting a similar hairdo to the President-elect last month.
Trump-related products and gag gifts have proliferated since the real estate mogul announced his candidacy for president.

Rump is a gag gift, a punchline to a colossal joke, President Angry Bird brain. They won't just be eating our nation for lunch in China, they will be eating Rump for lunch. Big negotiator, baloney. Chicken baloney.
