There’s a new rat on Fifth Avenue and we’re not talking about the one inside Trump Tower. On Monday afternoon, a 15-foot-tall inflatable rat created in Trump’s likeness was erected on Fifth Avenue and 59th street, just a few blocks from Trump Tower.
A gallery owner, John Post Lee, of BravinLee Gallery, funded the giant rat on Kickstarter which cost $10,000 to make.
“ I wanted to ridicule this guy because he really doesn’t deserve to be president. He really lowered the bar,” Lee said. “I hope he sees it, and I hope he hates it, and I hope it gets under his skin.”
John Post Lee, owner of Bravin Lee art galleries in NYC/LI said he commissioned 7ft “Trump Rat” to express “disgust”
