To help a group of independent artists make the point that “How did this man every get be a US president candidate?”, Bear Meets Eagle on Fire is filling the streets of Manhattan and Brooklyn with orange DUMO TRUMP garbage bags.

The swollen bags, emblazoned with the contentious political figure’s face, were strewn across the city’s streets just days before the election as a visceral metaphor for a candidate who has run one of the most divisive and contentious campaigns for president in US history.

“The most consequential Presidential election in our lifetime is taking place in the US this week, we just felt even a minor, satirical statement was worth making,” stated Micah Walker, founder of Bear Meets Eagle On Fire.

In a sign of the ever-increasing political temperature in the US, Bear’s creative and production partners in the US, designers, printers, photographers and even the volunteers who helped place the bags across the city, have asked to remain anonymous around their involvement in the project.

“It just gives you an indication of how fearful so many people are of a second Trump presidency,” Walker added. “I hope after next week it’s something none of us have to worry about ever again.”
