Donald Trump finally has his wall. But it’s not exactly the one he’s been campaigning for.

Controversial Los Angeles street artist Plastic Jesus erected a concrete “wall” around Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Tuesday, CBS Los Angeles reports.

The tiny wall, only six inches tall, has barbed wire on it and “Keep Out” signs, too. According to The Hill, it’s also adorned with Plastic Jesus famous motto: “Stop making stupid people famous.”

Plastic Jesus — also known for his sculpture of a giant Oscar statuette snorting cocaine — posted a photo of it on Instagram.

And yes, it’s gotten a lot of attention.

Some people are confused.

It’s no secret that the artistic provocateur won’t be voting for the Republican presidential candidate in November.

In April, the artist posted “No Trump Anywhere” parking signs in several big cities, including Chicago, New York and Washington, D.C.

No word on whether the Trump wall is still there.
