This Kit Includes a Donald Trump Hair Piece, Hat and Risque Suit
Charlotte Joyce Kidd — September 22, 2015 — Pop Culture
This racy Halloween costume kit includes Donald Trump hair, a 'Make America Great Again' hat and a skimpy suit and tie.
Billed by costume site yandy.com as a "sexy Donald Trump" Halloween costume, the ensemble takes political parody in a mildly confusing direction. The Donald Trump presidential campaign has been fertile ground for parody and commentary, feeding off everything from his incendiary statements to his signature Donald Trump hair. This may, however, be the first time that the comedy surrounding Trump has taken a burlesque bent.
The costume, titled 'Donna T. Rumpshaker,' joins the ranks of such politically and pop culturally minded costumes as 'Sexy George Washington' and the 'Twerkin Halloween Costume' modeled after Miley Cyrus' 2013 VMAs outfit, also available on yandy.com. From a high-minded perspective, the costume could be seen as a dual parody of Donald Trump's presidential bid and society's astounding ability to turn virtually anything into a sexy Halloween costume.
