Now it’s a Trumpster.

Madame Tussauds in Berlin, Germany tossed its wax figure of President Trump into a dumpster days before Americans go to the ballot box to decide whether he stays or goes.

Shortly before the US presidential elections, Madame Tussauds Berlin throws the wax figure of Donald Trump into the trash bin and disposes of it on October 30, 2020 in Berlin, Germany.

“Today’s activity is rather of a symbolic character ahead of the elections in the United States,” museums marketing manager Orkide Yalcindag told news outlets. “We here at Madame Tussauds Berlin removed Donald Trump’s waxwork as a preparatory measure.”

The wax figure was wheeled out in a trash receptacle with a sticker on it reading “Dump Trump, make America great again.” It was pushed past statues of president Reagan and Obama as photographers snapped away.

President Trump is deeply unpopular in Germany, according to a Pew Research Poll published last month, which shows 26% of Germans view the U.S. favorably. Only one in ten Germans expressed confidence in Trump.
