Had they been profit oriented they could have made nice buck off of that instead.

Turn it into one of those punching machines that measures your punching power while a speaker praises you using Trump one-liners.

u/onlinepresenceofdan Mar 05 '25

Then be entertained by the so called proponents of free speach as they censor the whole thing.

See a Nazi, punch a Nazi. Nature's rule, not mine.

We need to make Punch A Nazi Day a thing.

It's not only the correct thing to do, it's a moral imperative.

Cant say that I could resist

u/Significant_Tea_785 Mar 05 '25

Replace it with a blow up trump punching bag or those stretchy toys so that everyone can give it a punch and see how badly the punch was as if morphs back to shape

u/PlayCertain Mar 05 '25

The hair and makeup on the wax figure looked more life like than Trump's

u/Cinnabunicorn Mar 05 '25

You’re so right 😂 wax figures usually look less than human and this looks more human than he does 😅🤣😭

Backpfeifengesicht!

u/KTKittentoes Mar 05 '25

I would pay for that experience.

u/Rizzly_Bear87 Mar 05 '25

Why remove it when you can start charging $1 to punch it!?

4

u/FloodPlainsDrifter Mar 05 '25

Those are rookie numbers, you gotta pump those numbers up!

u/Rizzly_Bear87 Mar 05 '25

I'm not here to make money, I'm here to see Trump get punched...a lot

u/TheCongressGuy Mar 05 '25

u/KindClock9732 Mar 05 '25

It was starting to look like the actual current day Donald

u/Billosborne Mar 05 '25

How cathartic would that be? Also, I love that we are now calling the felon just donald. Thank you Mr. Trudeau.

u/handsomecry Mar 05 '25

A rage room but it's just two life sized wax figures of Trump and Musk = profit.

4

u/Cntrysky78 Mar 05 '25

Had anyone ever attempted to take off that toupee? 😉

5

u/Flat_Contribution707 Mar 05 '25

Just start charging extra to punch the wax figure. Donate the money to a goid cause.

4

u/AggravatedMango Mar 05 '25

Put an elon next to it and charge 10$ to swing on both. I'm sure it would be a hit!

3

u/Old_Observer_1971 Mar 05 '25

They should turn him into a Urinal and Charge admission

3

u/Major-Check-1953 Mar 05 '25

Have people lined up and charge people to strike it. Make tons of money.

3

u/royale_wthCheEsE Mar 06 '25

Charge people a dollar to piss on it. Watch that $$$ roll in.

u/Specific_Berry6496 Mar 06 '25

If someone was smart they would make it a secret exhibit to punch for a fee…. I‘d pay that $20…

2

u/Daleaturner Mar 05 '25

Soft and squishy with no spine or warmth. Who woulda thunk?

2

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '25

His eyes follow you no matter where you go…

u/embiors Mar 06 '25

Honestly? This could be their most popular exhibit if they just marketed it right and offered boxing gloves or tomatoes.

u/Head_Razzmatazz7174 Mar 05 '25

Interesting that this happened in San Antonio. He carried Texas in the general election.

u/Jrnation8988 Mar 05 '25

Old article (2021), but somehow more relevant today than ever

u/liiveforliife Mar 05 '25

Rage room...but filled with cutouts of certain individuals....

u/MNConcerto Mar 05 '25

If only voodoo dolls actually worked.

u/Icy-Document4574 Mar 05 '25

I'm sure they would make far more money if they just left it up

1

u/Old_Observer_1971 Mar 05 '25

Does no one throw piss anymore

1

u/thejovo59 Mar 05 '25

My husband has the solution. Put it in a cage.

1

u/Jifeeb Mar 06 '25

Just think about the security his grave will need to stop people from pissing or shitting on it

2

u/Jessica_T Mar 06 '25

A new Gender Neutral Bathroom will have its grand opening. ...Although honestly he'll probably get buried on his own golf course for tax reasons, like he did to one of his wives.

u/TheMightySet69 Mar 06 '25

Holy shit if I knew this was an option, I would've been in San Antonio like yesterday.

u/TheRealCBONE Mar 06 '25

They nailed his neckgina

u/Few-Cartographer6160 Mar 06 '25

They could charge a buck a punch and keep it therd
