A Donald Trump wax figure has become a whacks figure at a museum in Texas.
Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks has removed its likeness of the former president, saying it was suffering too much damage because so many visitors were punching it.
“When it’s a highly political figure, attacks can be a problem,” Clay Stewart, the regional manager for Ripley Entertainment, tells the San Antonio Express-News. Stewart tells the Express-News that the gouges left in the figure were quite deep.
It’s not a problem exclusive to Trump. Figures of Barack Obama and George W. Bush also have taken a beating in the past.

Meanwhile, the wax figures of Marx, Lenin, and Stalin are still pristine and unmarked.

Six year olds have impulse control problems. Oh, these are adults doing this? Never mind.

Half of our society is sick. If he should run for another office and get elected, they would probably go scorched earth on we the deplorables. It's scary to think about.

Or, gee, maybe you could have them arrested for destruction of property for acting like the spoiled little entitled brats that they are!!!
They know they can be destructive with impunity, and so they continue to do so. And, in this case (and sadly for too many others) they win!!! I'm glad my husband never witnessed such evil, or they would have discovered what it felt like to get punched back -- very hard!!!

How about we get some boxers to just hang around a punch back?

That's Fascist self-expression. They are marinated in hate, rage, envy, and vitriol. Their only relief from all this bile is to lash out physically. They literally have no words to express their feelings.

That's nothing. The joe biden one keeps being thrown down the stairs, and the PIAPS one is on the floor of an abandoned, rusted-out van in the alley by the dumpsters.

As long as fools like this Texas museum management cowtow to thugs, he is asking for more of it. You can protect it if you want to but evidently it was easier to be a woose and give in to the violence.

I am not reading about this. Put a punching bag in the museum of Pelosi, Schumer, Biden, then we will see.

Well then, I guess it's too much of a thought process to put it behind a plastic panel then isn't it? Much easier to kowtow to the liberal azz wipes and take it out...wankers...and no, I won't be visiting that museum, ever...

Her's your solution to people punching Trump at museum...Suspend Trump from ceiling and say Trump is watching over you.

If I went to that Waxworks, I would stoop in front of Obama's wax figure and drop a deuce, right then and there. Its not like Obama would be surprised by seeing a male butt.
Put to punch a Trump wax figure shows them to be cowardly punks. Wax figures don't punch back

Striking Obama's figure would result in arrest for multiple federal crimes - striking an illegal alien, racism, striking a shovel-ready autocrat, etc.

I don't believe the excuse. I think they want to be PC and remove it.
It can always be placed in a safe distance from the viewers.
