ROZNO, Slovenia - A wooden sculpture of U.S. first lady Melania Trump was torched near her hometown of Sevnica, Slovenia, on the night of July Fourth, as Americans celebrated U.S. Independence Day, said the artist who commissioned the sculpture.
"I want to know why they did it," said Downey, who had hoped the statue would foster a dialogue about the political situation in the United States, highlighting Melania Trump's status as an immigrant married to a president sworn to reduce immigration.In recent weeks, President Donald Trump has pledged to take a hard line on anyone destroying or vandalizing U.S. historical monuments, as political activism against racial injustice has swept across the country.
"The investigation in this case has not been completed yet so we cannot reveal details due to the interest of further procedures," police spokeswoman Alenka Drenik told Reuters.
She is hot...
Not...the Onion.
tbh, it's not a good representation. She is much more beautiful than the statue, and the Solvenians deserve better.
Don’t like Donnie. It. Leave Milania alone ... Poor taste
To get rid of the evil spirits
Lmao
Good, another racist monument destroyed... 'Melania Trump Supported Her Husband's Racist Birtherism Claims on TV'
OK that’s ugly so it should be burned. But not out of disrespect to her, just the artist.
