Shocking moment protester BEHEADS effigy of The Donald during his Salt Lake City rally

  • The Twitter video was recorded during Friday's Trump rally in the city
  •  One clip shows the cardboard figure being beheaded with a plank of wood
  • Its 'executioner' announces 'I hate Trump' before the 'killing' blow
  • Another video shows a second man attacking the figure

While pro-Trump and anti-Trump sides clashed at The Donald's rally in Salt Lake City Friday, some protesters decided to tackle a slightly less intimidating enemy: a crude cardboard effigy of the controversial Republican candidate.

A video uploaded to Twitter by KSL5 reporter Nicole Vowell showed protesters hanging a model of Trump by its neck on the steps of city hall and apparently inviting people to smash it with a plank of wood like a piñata.

'I hate Trump!' shouts one man who hefts his mighty weapon and, in one swift motion, beheads the hapless figure.

Smashing fun: Protester Hans Stiles was the second man filmed attacked the - by now already headless - Trump effigy outside Salt Lake City's city hall to protest Trump's rally in the city

For good measure, the man then picks up the severed 'head' and gives it a kick while a photographer captures the moment for posterity.

Another recording of the event, which was named #DumpTrump, shows a second man taking a swing at the now headless presidential hopeful.

The man, a Starbucks barista named Hans Stiles who uploaded the video to Twitter with the message 'Yes that's me and I just lead a revolution,' also wields the mighty plank.

'How can Trump run a country when he can't even do his hair right?' he shouts to the cheering crowd, before striking the faux Trump down with a roar.

Other scenes from the protest uploaded to Twitter by KSL5's Nicole Vowell show protesters decrying Trump as a 'racist and a fascist' and chanting 'Who's the biggest threat in the world today? Donald Trump in the U.S.A.!' 

Sadly, not all of the recent protests against Trump have been so lighthearted - scenes from elsewhere in Salt Lake City show police having to separate pro- and anti-Trump camps, while other protesters were arrested Saturday outside the Trump Tower in New York's Columbus Circle.

And yet more protesters were jailed Saturday after blocking off Trump's route from Salt Lake City to Phoenix, Arizona, where he held his second rally of the day.

Well that and anyone can pose a picture as weltz posted.  I remember during both the past two elections there were tons of seemingly anti O pictures staged, later it was found out it was actually the work of liberals trying to get people to believe that any anti O peeps were racist.

I can say this "beheading" is staged by Trump supporters.

 I don't see any link posted for your plagaristic photo.  Maybe the grammer police will arrest you.  We can only hope.

I was addressing IKWTDS. If she claims it was staged, she has to show proof.
I'm not claiming anything besides the fact that both sides do it, and that's a FACT.

Meh, both sides are guilty of this. Maybe they shouldn't do it but I would think as long as it's not a real person it falls under freedom of speech. I just can't get worked up about when both sides are equally guilty.

Meh. When the smoke clears, the Donald will be sitting in the Oval Office. So, we will see who has the last laugh.   It sure as hell won't be Hillary.

 If there are protests NOW, can you imagine what will happen if the nightmare becomes real?

 A lot of people who seem to be drinking a particularly dangerous brand of Kool-Aid.

No candidate has ever scared me as much as Trump does.

I know, let's just make them all red, white and blue and go back to being just plain old Americans instead of special interest hyphenated groups? That's a thought.

 Well, then why don't you liberals stop trying to force your agenda down our throats if that's the case?

 Very well said.  Now, if you could just get the rest of the liberals out there to understand that, the country would be a much better place.

 I'll get right on that.

There is nothing inherently wrong with identifying with a group, LGS. People tend to gravitate toward others who are similar to them. I have very little in common with certain posters here, for example, despite the fact that we're American.

Flan, wake up. It is the LEFT who constantly is trying to force their political correctness down our throats. It is the LEFT who are giving illegals more rights than Americans. It is the LEFT who is giving transgendered and LGBT MORE rights than Americans. Why does the comfort of the transgendered kid trump my child's comfort? You and the rest of the LEFT can't and wont' answer. It is the LEFT who is so petrified of the Bible or anything that doesn't promote their world view that they ban any and all vestiges of it. And, on and on and on. It is the LEFT who calls to BAN everything they don't like. To make laws from stopping people doing anything they don't like doing. To make govt rules and regulations to hinder people who live their lives in the slightest degree that disagree with their dogma.
