BRONX - Brooklyn native "Chuckie" was visiting a food vendor along East Fordham Road and Creston Avenue when he was observed showing off a Donald Trump doll. 


Chuckie stated that he had purchased the mask for Halloween last year and recently connected the mask to a suit and red tie. 



When asked he said he planned to vote for Trump. 





He also said he was thinking about making and selling more Trump dolls. 




Trump is planning a scaled down rally at Crotona Park on Thursday. The former president has a permit for 3,500 people to attend. Even though the park  in the past has hosted large events such as the Junior Tennis League tournament in connection with the US Open. In the past once a year thousands of Bronx students would flood the park for free tennis lessons and events during Youth Day. 





Democratic Assemblywoman Amanda Septimo was trying to organize a protest at the park. 


Trump’s criminal trial will go to the jury next week.
