Americans mark Trump’s election victory with themed tattoos

As the world prepares for four or more years of a Donald Trump presidency, some Americans have chosen to mark the billionaire’s appointment to the nation’s top job a little more permanently.

An array of creative Trump-themed tattoos have begun cropping up on social media, with some expressing approval of the new President-elect and others disdain.

One person had the words “Trump is not my F*****g President” emblazoned on their torso, while another disapproving American chose the ‘poo’ emoji to symbolize Mr Trump’s iconic hair, complete with hovering flies.

Others forwent the humour – with one tattoo artist showing off a piece she inked on a man’s calf that depicts the incoming president as an evil ram.

“Fun piece today to mark the occasion #trumpforpresident #not #blackandgrey #trumpportrait #thecrowsnestsa #eviltrump #tattooportrait #trumptattoo #deviltattoo#blackwork #electionday”, she captioned the photograph.

Amongst the sea of negative skin markings, however, some celebrated the former reality television star’s victory.

Boston tattoo artist Dello Russo said 15 people had lined up at his shop after he advertised free Trump tattoos.  

One man wearing a “Make America Great Again” cap got a “Donald Trump 2017” tattoo, along with the acronym #MAGA.

"This is here forever and I love it,” the customer told WHDH.

"I just wanted to put something that was close to my heart, something that I can look at every day and be proud of.”
