Recounting the feedback he was getting in the aftermath of Rubio’s jibe, Trump said, “I was on line shaking hands with supporters and one of the supporters said, ‘Mr”.

For some reason, which Madame Tussauds declined to comment on, the print of one of Trump’s hands has remained on a plaque near the exit of the museum’s NY outpost on 42nd Street ever since. While Trump’s figurine was retired in 2011, one of his handprints is still hanging on a plaque on the wall as guests exit the museum.
