One float has an effigy of Donald Trump with a plaque reading TRUMP-EL-TIER’ (a satirical name given to Trump depictions resembling the Trampeltier which is a camel and a creature behaving like a bull in a china shop).

The float with the effigy of the Turkish President has him sitting on a lawnmower, driving over ‘Press freedom’ and ‘Democracy’ signs.
