It kinda looks like a mk. 2 GTI. But why is there a car on it at all? I guess GTI does fit the rhyme. Trump lies, GTI, People die.

I was hoping it was an old Toyota Corona, but that’s not it.

It doesn’t have the double lights like a golf. I was expecting some sort of Russian or Chinese car but can’t really see what it is

Maybe a square headlight mk. 1 then? I’m not sure that quite fits either.

I was gonna say a Dodge Omni but I think that’s a euro plate on the front

I actually think that’s a VW Fox. Kind of makes sense in this context but still doesn’t really.

It was sold in Europe as a Simca (then as a Talbot).

But lies doesn’t rhyme with die. They could have made it:

Another Trump Lie

People Die

Another GTI

Rallydarkstrike got it.  But it *should* be a Lada.

Seems like that’s it!

But yeah, I have no idea how an old European market hatch is at all relevant to our idiot president?

Maybe they were going to do a song in the style of INXS’s “Mediate”.

I was going to guess it’s some iteration of Toyota Carona. I’m pretty sure the name was carried into the 80s but maybe in another market.

Still not sure what the car is there for

The first idea that popped in my head was the Volvo 340. Your SEAT seems to be a better fit though.

Why didn't she just put a bucket on the head of a Trump effigy, to show that she's blind to his tyranny?

I was using the ‘logo in bottom-right corner of the grill’ as a search point...I’d ori ginally thought of Volvo as well, but they never had their logo in that spot!

interesting - is there a political reason why that car is on the anti-trumpster poster that I’m missing?  (just decoration?)

Why is there a car on this poster?

People on here were saying a million Americans were going to die of this thing a few months ago, so I guess Trump hasn’t been lying too much.

Ok so it’s a Fura, but still- why?

Maybe it came up in someone’s image search for To yota Corona? I dunno, it’s not coming up in mine.

For that matter, why any car? What have cars got to do with it? Trump protesters make about as much sense as Trump himself sometimes.
