Bwahahahahaha!
"A statue of Melania Trump has been removed from near her hometown in Slovenia after being badly burned by vandals.
"The statue, near Sevnica, central Slovenia, was set alight on July 5, Slovenian Police confirmed to CNN Thursday.
"Brad Downey, the artist who commissioned the piece, told CNN Thursday that he received a call from the local police department asking him what to do with the statue, which was made in July 2019 as part of an ongoing project that includes a short documentary film.
"The statue was removed on July 5, and Downey said he asked locals not to distribute photos of the scorched figure so it did not become a "violent meme."
"Downey has filed a police report but said he is only interested in finding the attackers, not pressing charges against them."
What a remarkable likeness too! Such a shame.

Funny that the statute was made as part of a documentary project. Usually a person is important and has some statues evidencing the importance
before someone comes along a makes a biography. But when you are wholly unimportant and you are trying to purchase cred, commissioning
a statue and bio is a "one stop shop" enterprise.

A Folk Art Sculpture of Melania Trump Has Been Resurrected in Bronze After Critics Torched the Original Wood Carving | artnet News
Explained. The statue, now bronze and even more inscrutable.

I know, right!? My five-year-old g-daughter makes better likenesses out of Playdoh. lol
If I were Slovenian, I would have burned it for being an insult to artistic integrity.
