A topless protester grabbed Trump's wax figure by the crotch

A member of the feminist group FEMEN was pictured attacking Donald Trump’s wax figure at the Madrid Museum’s unveiling ceremony, Reutersreports.

The topless woman pushed past the security ropes and put her hand on the statue’s nether region, as she shouted “grab patriarchy by the balls,” in English and Spanish.

The incident came in response to the President-elect's previous disparaging comments about women.

In a leaked 1995 recording on a bus with Billy Bush of Access Hollywood, the President-elect can be heard bragging about how his fame lets him "grab women by the p---y".

FEMEN confirmed that the woman had been one of their activists on Twitter:

Gonzalo Presa, head of communications at the museum had called the protest “unpleasant”.

Eventually, the woman was escorted from the museum, but not before shouting “America, you’re not great”.
