The statues were then placed in cities including New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
The sculptor, a former Trump supporter, who designed the now famous statues of a naked Donald Trump seen across the US revealed to PIX11 why he turned against the Republican presidential nominee. Donald Trump is represented with his hands crossed on his protruding belly.
Copies of the orange-tinted likeness – featuring a massive belly, small fingers and missing some genital parts – were simultaneously unveiled in downtown Manhattan’s Union Square Park and public places in four other US cities.
Though the fate of the other statues are unknown, the Big Apple’s naked Trump has already been hauled away by the city’s parks department.
The statue was removed by New York City Department of Parks & Recreation employees.
The artist used 300 pounds of clay and silicone to make the 80-pound statues.

After realising that the base was pretty permanently stuck to the ground, they smashed the naked Don’s ankles and threw his footless body into a truck, leaving just the remains of the short-lived statue’s sorrowful soles. “Take his filthy feet too”, shouted one woman.
Ian Randolph, who works as a cashier at Soap Plant and Wacko that proudly displays the grotesque statue, said that it was definitely hilarious.
When asked about the statue at a news conference, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio struck a similar tone. “When he’s wearing clothes I don’t like him”.

An anonymous spokesman for the group explained that the statue just their way of expressing their contempt for Trump as well as their disappointment that he made it this far. The collective also has spray-painted a U.S. -Mexico border fence in Tijuana, Mexico, with an image of a gagged Trump.
