As a means to show how much the American Republican candidate offends them, a number of Tumblr users have joined together to offer the Internet their own Donald Trump artworks.
The resulting imagery is difficult to look at, as the business man's face has been replaced with close-ups of his own aging skin or taken over entirely by a grotesque single feature. While one shows him with an incredibly swollen blob for a head that has a large mouth and beady eyes poking out, another shows him with just a gaping mouth for a face.
With these Donald Trump artworks, Tumblr users depict how they view the candidate -- showing him as exaggerated, distorted and disturbingly unattractive.
