Artist puts Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame behind bars

The often-vandalized Hollywood Walk of Fame star of President Donald Trump was recently replaced after a vandal had smashed it to smithereens with a pickaxe at night in July

President Donald Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the news again for being the subject of yet another protest - this time by a British-born street artist named Plastic Jesus. The artist reportedly placed a sidewalk version of prison bars on top of Trump's star on Wednesday.

The often-vandalized star was recently replaced after it was smashed to smithereens with a pickaxe at night in July. The incident came to light when a video of the star being smashed began doing the rounds on social media the next morning.

This time, Plastic Jesus took to Twitter and posted a short clip of visitors taking pictures of Trump's star behind bars, and wrote: "Today I put @realDonaldTrump behind bars."
