A couple weeks back, we brought you the story of a Florida man getting a tattoo of Donald Trump sporting an itty bitty micropenis etched onto his left thigh for all eternity. Donald’s dick was about the size of a Snow Cap you get at the movies. I’ve taken pills of molly bigger than this thing. Check it out.
The image was created by the artist Illma Gore as a satirical response to Trump’s political campaign and was spread widely on social media, prompting a tattoo artist to offer to ink the tattoo to anyone who wanted it free of charge.
Here’s Illma’s original piece (note: dick still looks like a shiitake mushroom).

Turns out, some Trump supporters didn’t see the humor in Gore’s artwork, evident in the Instagram post the artist put up yesterday.
For those visually impaired bros, here’s the transcript of the post.
Today I was punched in the face by a man who got out of his car and yelled, “Trump 2016!” in Los Angeles, just days after I returned home from London just down the road from my house. Though I encourage passion, opinion and emotion, especially though art, I think violence is disgusting. To live in a place where Facebook has given my address to an anonymous third party makes me feel like I am homeless again. This type of violence makes creatives feel like we live in a world where our individual creative input isn’t safe. I am sad that this is the state of our America right now. I am sad that Trump, and many of his supporters, don’t find words enough to express their opinions – they need walls, waterboarding and punches. @realdonaldtrump Please stop glamorizing and perpetuating violence. Make America Decent Again! #makeamericadecentagain No, they have not been caught, and the men drove off laughing. A detailed police report has been filed.
According to Death and Taxes, since the drawing gained notoriety, the 24-year-old has faced death threats and the promise of legal action if she tried selling the piece.
This election cycle is lit as fuck.
Speaking of regrettable tattoos:
