Indiana Residents Up In Arms Over Parade Float Depicting Trump Executing Hillary Clinton In Electric Chair


Even when The Deplorables are trying to make a point, they can't make Trump not look like a bloated sack of heated crap.

Story out of Aurora, Indiana:

Residents in Indiana are up in arms over a parade float Saturday that depicted Donald Trump throwing the switch on Hillary Clinton in an electric chair and President Obama as a Easter Island figure with an oversized head.

A public protest started when an Aurora mom posted a photo of the float on Facebook and condemned it as sexist and racist. Most commenters agreed with her, but others defended it.

"Who thinks this is appropriate for a fair parade where children, some of them minorities and girls, are marching and playing instruments and watching? Who thinks this is something to laugh at or be proud of?" Penny Britton said on her Facebook post. "This is disgusting. This makes me embarrassed to say I live here. This is Aurora, Indiana. Congratulations."

The float was part of the Aurora Farmers Fair Parade Saturday morning in the small Ohio River town 35 miles west of Cincinnati. It's sponsored by the Aurora Lions Club, according to its website, and touted as Indiana's oldest street festival. The theme of the parade was "Celebrating the Past, Embracing the Future."

Four people dressed in costume played the roles of Trump, Clinton, The Grim Reaper and a clergyman (from "The Exorcist?). The float bore Trump-Pence campaign signs and a few handwritten pro-Trump, anti-Clinton messages. One repeated the Trump mantra, "Make America Great Again" and a larger one said "Benghazi – Stand Down." Cont. (Video/Autoplay)
