Mexican’s set fire to an effigy of US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on March 26, 2016 in Mexico City during Holy Week celebrations. For many years Mexicans have made cardboard figures representing all forms of evil, which are then torched commemorating the “Burning of Judas,” a tradition in which Mexicans torch effigies of the devil, politicians and others they dislike on the eve of Easter Sunday.
Mexicans have found a new way to blow off steam over Donald Trump — creating an effigy of the White House hopeful to burn in an Easter ritual. Some 61 percent of Mexicans hold a negative opinion of Trump — who has vowed to force Mexico to pay for a huge wall across the US border to stop illegal migration — an opinion poll found this month. / AFP / YURI CORTEZ (Photo credit should read YURI CORTEZ/AFP/Getty Images)
