View StoryTrump was awarded his star in 2007 after years of hosting "The Apprentice," and it has since been the site of many protests -- some of which have including the act of defecating. The star was first smashed to pieces with a sledgehammer and pick-axe in October 2016, one month before Trump was elected President of the United States. The second destruction took place just last month after a man reduced it to rubble using a pick-axe.

View StoryRegarding Trump's star, the Hollywood Historic Trust said it would be repairing it after the recent smashing. Hollywood Chamber of Commerce CEO Leron Gubler backed the notion by stating that all stars are part of the fixed landmark on Hollywood Boulevard.
"Once we receive a communication from the City of West Hollywood, it will be referred to our Executive Committee for consideration at their next meeting," Gubler told TMZ. "As of now, there are no plans to remove any stars from the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The West Hollywood City Council does not have jurisdiction over the Hollywood Walk of Fame."
