This actually happened.

An inflatable chicken mimicking US President Donald Trump is set up on The Ellipse, a 52-acre (21-hectare) park located just south of the White House and north of the Washington Monument.

A giant, inflatable chicken that has Trump-esque hair was spotted near the White House on Wednesday.

The chicken balloon was seen on the Ellipse, just south of the building and near the Washington Monument. Similar balloons have been used in protests during the Trump administration, including Tax Day marches that demanded the president release his tax returns.
