I'd say someone did Melania Trump a favour.

According to Reuters,

Although the statue’s face was rough-hewn and unrecognizable prior to the fire, the figure was painted with a pale blue wraparound coat resembling the one Melania Trump wore at the swearing in of her husband U.S. President Donald Trump.

The figure was carved with a chainsaw by local folk artist Ales Zupevc from the trunk of a living linden tree.

We are not told whether he was drunk or sober at the time, though.

The only documented voter fraud in 2016 was a *Republican* going around collecting absentee ballots and then tampering with them. If you actually tried to register and vote in this country, instead of spouting Russian talking points, you'd know how hard it is to cheat. Notice that guy got caught.

ooops....

You know, Bristol can still contract a black artist to create a permanent replacement. It doesn't need to be either/or.
