The statues were placed by a group called INDECLINE, an activist collective that says it's vehemently against Trump becoming president.
The group put a plaque at the bottom of each life-size statue that says "the emperor has no balls."
That title seems to go along with how the statue was designed, as some parts of male genitalia seem to be missing.
The statues, which were made by an artist in Cleveland, appeared in these other cities: Seattle, Cleveland, San Francisco and Los Angeles.

The New York City Parks Department issued a statement Thursday, saying "NYC Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no matter how small."
Mayor Bill de Blasio was asked about his thoughts on the statue.
"That is a frightening thought," de Blasio said. When he's wearing clothes I don't like him. I can only imagine what he's like without clothes."
De Blasio added, "of course we are not going to let people put up ad hoc statues."
Trump's campaign has declined to comment on the statues.
