Claim: Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame star had a drain installed due to people repeatedly urinating on it. Rating: About this rating FalseIn early June 2024, an X user posted an image allegedly showing a drain installed on former U.S. President Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame star, which was seemingly covered in a murky stain. However, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which administers the Walk of Fame, told Snopes it did not add a drain to Trump's star. A reverse-image search of the in-question image uncovered similar photos of Trump's star (same angle, lighting, etc.) Likewise, no credible news outlets reported on a drain being added to Trump's Walk of Fame star due to people urinating on it, which would have been newsworthy if it were true.
