S.A. attorney's 'El Pendejo' Trump Fiesta medals sell 'like hotcakes'


San Antonio attorney Rosie Gonzalez and her "El Pendejo," President Donald Trump-inspired medal.

Whether it's El Borracho or La Dama, everyone has their prized lotería card, but a new addition featuring President Donald Trump as "El Pendejo" has quickly become a widespread fan favorite among San Antonio's Fiesta medal maniacs.

Instead of piling uncooked beans on this card, Fiesta fans will wear the political jab on their lapels and sashes thanks to an idea by San Antonio attorney Rosie Gonzalez.

The medal which touts the president as a "pendejo," or idiot, was created all in "jest and fun," Gonzalez told mySA.com.

"We're in political upheaval, it's been an upheaval since (Trump) decided to run, it's been one fiasco after another," the attorney added. "I think there's been some feeling by a lot of Latinos that there's a backlash spearheaded by him."

However, the Urban Dictionary says, "pendejo is a spanish slang word for idiot, stupid or dumass."
