Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump's embrace is a work of art...literally.

A muralist from Lithuania created the mural being talked about around the world. The mural is on a storefront BBQ restaurant called "Keule Ruke." It is an homage to a mural from 1990 that was on the Berlin Wall. The mural was of two former communists kissing. It was later found out that that kiss actually happened, in 1979.

The restaurant owner spoke with the Baltic News Service and said that the Trump/Putin mural was inspired by the similarities between the two men.
"They both have an ego that is too big, and it is funny that they get along well. We are in a sort of a Cold War again, and America may get a president who will want to be friends with Russia," the restaurant owner added.

My Two Cents

I find this to be a smart and dangerous piece. Smart because it's pretty much true; the men have had great things to say about one another. It is equally as dangerous because of how true it is. The restaurant owner mentioned that we are in a Cold War-like era, and he's sort of right about that. Things will only get worse if Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin join forces. One thing that is worse than one pinhead, is two pinheads trying to take over the world.

All in all, it is a provocative and political piece of art, and I hope they aren't forced to remove it. The power in the piece needs to be seen by all so we know what is in store for us if Donald Trump is ever elected president. You just need to get past the 'ick factor' of the two most-hated men in the world kissing first (It took me several minutes). You will see what I mean.
