A Trump wax figure is trolling a Trump animatronic
Wax-figure palace Madame Tussauds was unable to pass up the opportunity to take a swipe at Disney World's jowly new animatronic President Trump.
Robo-Trump made his official debut on Tuesday at the Magic Kingdom's Hall of Presidents, but visitors were able to get a sneak peek on Monday. The response was ... not good, with the consensus being it resembled Jon Voight rather than Trump. Madame Tussauds Orlando got in on the action, tweeting a solid diss Tuesday afternoon:
Don't forget, your museum is filled with wax, Madame Tussauds — be careful with those burns.
