A statue of Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador in Atlacomulco, was knocked down several days after it was unveiled by the mayor. The life-size statue of the Mexican president in an opposition stronghold did not last a week.

The statue was unveiled during a festive ceremony led by Atlacomulco’s outgoing mayor, Roberto Tellez Monroy. The base of the sculpture which was briefly towering over the municipality’s main square featured a plaque with the name of Lopez Obrador.

The statue met its grim end two days after it was presented to the public. Photos shared on social media on the first day of the new year show the statue lying on the ground with its head missing.

No one has taken responsibility for what the prosecutor’s office in the central State of Mexico called an apparent act of vandalism.

It’s unclear if the suspected vandals will face any punishment, however. The prosecutor’s office said that a formal complaint still needs to be lodged for an investigation into the incident to be opened.

The Mexican president himself reportedly did not approve of the statue. The destruction of the statue coincides with the transfer of power over the municipality from the ruling MORENA party to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) following an election.

Atlacomulco, which is located just a two-hour drive from the capital, Mexico City, has long been known as the birthplace of the ‘Grupo Atlacomulco’, an informal political group which is believed to have ties to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).

However, the group remains a mystery, as officials linked to the group have persistently denied its existence. However, Mexico remains one of the countries that do want to massively vaccinate its population.

We should do the same but not with statues but with actual political gangsters, banksters, billionaires like B. Gates, and Zionist lobbyists.

Look what ANTIFA did to Abe Lincoln in DC. And Washington in Seattle. THIS is what Liberals do. So take note.

In Mexico nobody is forced to get the so called vaccine. If you go there, not even a tampon test is needed. That’s why things are going bad for the President.
