Trump is still stuck in the toxic Gowanus Canal. The neighbors plan to leave him there.
The president wanted to drain the swamp — but now he's trapped in one.
A lot of strange things have appeared in the toxic waters of the Gowanus Canal over the years. Banjos, cars and that one fearless swimmer come to mind. And who can forget Sludgie the Whale?
But what emerged sometime during the last week may be the strangest of all: a floating statue of President Donald Trump surrounded by faux serpents and seaweed.
The artwork depicts Trump inside a tire with orange gloves and green eyes. He has his mouth open in what appears to be a raging fit — perhaps upset by increasing calls for impeachment, or just the fact that he is floating along a waterway that has, at one time or another, contained typhoid, cholera, tuberculosis and gonorrhea. (At one point, the canal was called “Lavender Lake” for its concoction of colors that resembled Pepto-Bismol.)
