A carnival held in the German city of Düsseldorf played host to an array of eye-catching parade floats including one attempting to visualise Donald Trump's relationship with Russia.
The float, which was paraded through the streets on Monday, showed a naked representation of the US president being mounted by a bear wearing a Russian ushanka hat emblazoned with a red star.
On the side of the bear was written Russland-Affäre, which translates to "Russia affair". Like its English equivalent, Affäre has a sexual connotation.

The bear mounting Trump is at least a year old. I don't remember the words from before.

That parade is always a great display of political humor, satire, and reality.
