It turns out that Donald Trump is made in China.
Workers toiling away in the Shenzhen Lanbingcai Latex Crafts Factory churn out hundreds of Trump masks alongside those of less terrifying creatures. Anthony Kwan watched more than 20 people bringing the rubber likeness of an alleged billionaire to life, apparently unconcerned that the man has suggested a 45 percent tariff on Chinese goods.
Making masks starts with hosing latex into molds. After it dries, workers remove the mask and look for flaws. At this point, masks look as lifeless as the GOP's chances at the White House. A little airbrushing---just the right shade of orange, in Trump's case---brings it to life.
Oddly, these masks are destined to remain in China, where they sell for just under five bucks a piece. Because many Chinese, like many Americans, find Trump terrifying.
