Consumers are flocking to get their own Donald Trump toilet brush across China, amid growing trade tensions between their government and the U.S
The cleaning tool sports a fluorescent orange bristled-head to model the U.S president’s infamous hair style.
Taobao, the Chinese equivalent to eBay, sells the brushes for around 20 yuan; the equivalent of 2 pounds in England.
The product is trending and many users on Chinese social media are tweeting how useful they are finding the President.
The shop boasts that the brush has powerful, ‘360-degree’ cleaning effect and can reach ‘every corner and crack’.
Other loo-themed Trump products include toilet roll printed with pictures of the President’s face.
Commentators link the brush rush with the worsening trade relations between China and the U.S which some are calling a trade war.
Chinese Media outlets are using the words of Chairman Mao and propaganda pictures to stir up national sentiment for Beijing in the unfolding trade conflicts.
Mr Trump believes his tariff hikes on Chinese goods will put the squeeze on Beijing. The latest of which was a 25 percent hike to billions of dollars of Chinese goods.
China is not the first country to sell the ‘Trump’ brushes. Similar products emerged last November in New Zealand.
Dubbed the Commander In Crap, the brushes are sold through shopping site Etsy to the delight of shoppers.
