Here's who foots the bill every time Trump's Hollywood star on the Walk of Fame is destroyed

US

President Donald Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was destroyed by a man with a pickax -- again. Authorities received a call around 3:30 a.m. and arrived on Hollywood Boulevard where they witnessed the rubble. The suspect was Austin Clay, 24, who reported the crime and turned himself into Beverly Hills police.

This sort of thing has been an on-going occurrence, but Doc and Kris on Thursday's episode of "The Morning Blaze" raised a key question: Who foots the bill for the repairs?

Workers and the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. Each star sets the chamber back $30,000 dollars when they're purchased.

Here's what Leron Gubler, President, and CEO of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce had to say:

"The Hollywood Walk of Fame is an institution celebrating the positive contributions of the inductees. When people are unhappy with one of our honorees, we would hope that they would project their anger in more positive ways than to vandalize a California State landmark. Our democracy is based on respect for the law. People can make a difference by voting and not destroying public property."

Many bystanders agreed.
