The cover, which, in bold colors, depicts Trump as a clown, is not the first controversial cover the tabloid has churned out. Last week, after coming in second place in the Iowa caucus, the Daily News depicted Trump as a "dead clown walking."

The Daily News went after Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz last month for his "New York Values" attack on Trump with a cover that read, "Drop Dead, Ted," a headline that drew the ire of many on social media.
