A string of bizarre and disruptive sex toy incidents is plaguing the WNBA, forcing arrests, triggering investigations, and getting people talking – including Donald Trump Jr.
Donald Trump Jr. posted a photo to his Instagram Thursday, seemingly mocking the incidents with a photo of WNBA players playing basketball at the White House and President Trump on the roof, throwing a green dildo.

On July 28, a group of crypto enthusiasts created Green Dildo Coin as an online meme in protest of what they call a “toxic” environment in the cryptocurrency world. This was the same day as the first sex toy incident.
Members of Green Dildo are advised to “only throw their green-branded items if there is a level of personal comfort and the objects can land without hitting anyone,” a spokesperson said in an interview with USA Today.
