Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame vandalized with 'Putin's B----'

President Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was vandalized yet again on Wednesday morning, spray-painted with the words "Putin’s Bitch."

TMZ shared footage from 4:30 a.m. of vandals appearing to cover the star with black paint and writing the reference to Russian President Vladimir Putin in white.

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce told the outlet that a cleaning crew removed the paint at no cost shortly after it was discovered.

The Hollywood Historic Trust, which maintains and repairs stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, plans on filing a police report, TMZ reported.

From Business Insider: "First, someone has to nominate these celebrities — this could be anyone from a publicist to a wealthy fan. Next, they must obtain that celebrity's consent, as the nominee must sign a form stating that they want a star, and that they will attend the unveiling of it".

"If a person's application gets accepted, whoever did the nominating needs to pony up: a star costs $30,000. The Chamber of Commerce claims that half the cost goes into building the star, while the other half is used for upkeep".

My guess is one of Trump's alter-ego "publicists" or "random businessmen" nominated the asshole (he nominated himself) and then he had the "Trump Foundation" pay the $30,000.

After they run out of money from replacing the orange hemorrhoids "star" so many times he'll either have to pony up more money or they'll just "forget" to replace it. I'm sure Trump will steal the money from someone to have it replaced in perpetuity.

taken a pick-axe to it before and smashed it to smithereens. They always put another in it's place. Sooner or later they'll come to the conclusion that it's not worth the money to keep replacing it. Unless they're Trump supporters (which I doubt in L.A.) I guess, then they'll probably have a 24 hour guard protecting the fragile one's "star".

Much like what some European countries have installed in their urban cores (i.e. Paris).

The revenue from letting visitors let-it-flow at that particular location would surpass (surpiss?) what they collect from parking meters and other revenue *ahem* streams.

As long as we have to exist in a “capitalist” economy, what’s wrong with this idea?

puppy to pee on the spot that you sprayed on. Maybe people should just keep that little spot covered with puppy pee attraction.

Have someone wear a MAGA hat and spray it on every morning. He can tell people he's just cleaning it. People will begin to wonder why the Rump's star is so popular with the pooches.

Isn't this like the 3rd or 4th time now? They should get that crazy sonofabitch that likes to park himself on front of Hillary's house (to get her arrested or something stupid like that), to go to Hollywood and guard that fricken star for the rest of his life, until he is dead or a whole lot less crazy. Yeah, yeah, that's it.
