Donald Trump has earned his piece of history, at least in a British museum;

but it's not exactly a tribute to the outgoing White House leader who split America in half.

The Museum of London is in fact preparing to exhibit the gigantic inflatable puppet, which depicts him in the role of a spoiled, angry and capricious baby and who was raised in the skies of the capital of the Kingdom on the occasion of the events promoted to protest against the "red carpet" lying at the feet of the American president-tycoon during his official visit organized by the Tory government then led by Theresa May.

A space has been reserved for the mocking puppet, a 6-meter-high balloon, in the sector that collects objects and souvenirs of some of the great square gatherings that have taken place in London over the decades.

Sharon Ament, director of the city museum, said she sees the inflatable 'baby-Trump' as a symbol "of the wave of feelings that fueled a moment of resistance" and added that she hopes that displaying it will help "to reflect on. reasons that led many Londoners to oppose Trump's instigations "and" on ways to continue the battle against the politics of hatred ".

In the name of half a level playing field, the management of the Museum of London has also made it known that it is now also "in contact" with the rights holders on another sarcastic effigy of the opposite sign: the one conceived by a group of supporters Brits of Trump to make fun of the current Labor Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, protagonist of repeated controversies with The Donald, in response to the demonstrations against the 2019 visit to which Khan gave his explicit support.
