Always keeping a pulse on public opinion, the ad industry has not missed a beat in satirizing what many have perceived as an absurdly drastic administrative leap for our country.

While Taiwan and others have made silly videos of Trump dancing, a popular New Zealand commercial shows adorable toddlers wearing Trump wigs and defending their hair while repeating direct quotes from his highly controversial campaign.

In Australia, a popular beer ad depicts President Trump unveiling an “impenetrable” wall. As the President bloviates about the wall’s greatness and effectiveness, Mexican citizens climb under it and walk into the U.S. directly behind him.

Even Mexico has gotten in on the fun. In one commercial, the popular Mexican beer Tecate suggests bringing the product to the wall as a way of bringing people together.

Instagram Perhaps the cutest form of dissent possible.

The idea is to use your cat’s discarded pet hair to make your pet a “The Donald” toupee. Then pose your adorable little feline leader of the free world for a quick snapshot and post it with the #TrumpYourCat hashtag. While it’s hard to know the geographic origins of such an idea, the hashtag spread internationally with the most posts coming from the United States.
