At a Guns N’ Roses concert in Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes on November 30, 2016, the band lowered a giant piñata resembling Donald Trump and invited fans onstage to beat it with bats, with frontman Axl Rose urging, “Let’s bring up some people and give them a f***ing stick; express yourselves however you feel.” (time.com) Concertgoers smashed the effigy to pieces, tossed fragments and hidden merchandise into the crowd, and video of the stunt has resurfaced online, prompting debate and criticism from fans who say the performance turned into an anti‑Trump spectacle and sparked a fresh wave of reaction.
