Danish EU parliament member Per Clausen posed with artist Jens Galschiøt's sculpture 'The Orange Plague' at the European Parliament building in Strasbourg, France. The piece, by the Danish activist sculptor known for provocative political works, is being read as a pointed commentary on Donald Trump, with the hashtag 'TheOrangePlague' attached to discussion of the photo. Observers called the lawmaker's gesture bold and pointed.
Why now: The sculpture's pointed message about Trump and a sitting MEP publicly endorsing it is drawing attention.
