When highway police in the northwestern German city of Osnabrück were running a routine traffic stop this past weekend, the last face they expected to see was that of U.S. President Donald Trump.
In fact, they found 5,000 of his faces.
Police pulled over two Austrians and discovered five bags full of orange-colored ecstasy pills that had been shaped in the likeness of Trump. The back of the pill also read the name Trump, just in case you were still unclear about the reference.
Police also uncovered a large amount of cash in the vehicle, which was en route to Austria. The arrested duo, a 51-year-old man and his 17-year-old son, told police they were heading home after a failed car-buying expedition. The officers decided to take a closer look and found approximately 5,000 pills with a street value around 39,000 euros ($45,800 U.S.).
Apparently, the ecstasy pills were being sold on the internet with the slogan, “Trump makes partying great again.” This actually wasn’t the first time anyone had heard of them, either. There were reports in British media in July that the Trump-shaped drugs were coming to the UK from Amsterdam in large quantities. Looks like they were right.
