Aussie Artist Unveils Savage Donald Trump Graffiti In Sydney

Scottie Marsh has done it again with his ever-so-quick turnarounds.

The Australian artist usually wastes no time when a historic or iconic moment happens in the world. He grabs his tools and finds a wall wherever he can and gets to work.

His latest iteration is, of course, about the US election, which many people have been keenly watching ever day since the polls closed on November 3.

It sure as hell has been an election of firsts and the aftermath has been just as enthralling (or depressing) as the lead up.

Joe Biden has been declared the winner of the 2020 ballot and has spent the weekend promising to heal a divided America and get to work on the important issues at hand.

His opponent, Donald Trump, is still complaining that the election was unfair and has made unfounded claims that the votes aren't legitimate. He still hasn't provided any evidence for this allegations.

On Friday, Trump addressed the media and said the Democrats have tried to steal this election (again, unfounded) and promised there would be plenty of legal challenges launched.

The live press conference was actually pulled from major US news networks so that presenters could fact-check him and ensure they could provide context to what he was saying. Many presenters were shocked at the President's words, none more so than CNN's Anderson Cooper and his statement has been immortalised in Marsh's artwork.

"That is the President of the United States. That is the most powerful person in the world and we see him like an obese turtle on his back flailing in the hot sun, realising his time is over," Anderson said last week.

Since debuting the new artwork at the Botany View Hotel, people have been sending their praise towards Scottie.

One person wrote: "Once again, you have nailed the mood."

Another added: "The best one yet!! Thank you so much for gracing the world with this beauty."

A third said: "Lol. As soon as I saw you tweeting this quote I figured a mural was on the way."

Marsh hasn't shied away from the big and controversial topics in the past, having unveiled an equally savage mural of Cardinal George Pell near the Vatican and one of Scott Morrison in a Hawaiian shirt and lay because he went on holiday during the bushfire crisis.

We wonder whether this newest addition to his collection will get some hate from Trump supporters.
