Art lover would very definitely not feature as one  of  the very many adjectives we could use to describe the crass Donald Trump, so we think one of his peeps should attempt to explain the work of the celebrated photographer Spencer Tunick. Since1994 he has organized some 75 large-scale human installations of naked men and women in  locations around the world resulting in some really stunning images.

Now Tunick has announced that his latest project for which he is looking for 100 bold women to pose nude for a Cleveland-based photo shoot on July 17, 2016 at the Republican National Convention.  Called “Everything She Says Means Everything,” and according to the artist’s website the 100 naked women will hold up large mirror discs that represent “reflecting the knowledge and wisdom of progressive women and the concept of ‘Mother Nature” onto the convention center where the RNC is taking place.

Hmmm. We think the subtlety in the detail will be totally lost on Trump and all of his cronies, and that he will crudely think that this will be something like a buffet which is being offered up to him to take his pick from.  Or maybe the sight of so many naked women together will just be way too much for him and seriously damage his health?  Here’s hoping for the latter.
