The man ruling the roost here in America won't be spared ridicule in China.

A towering statue of a rooster outside a China mall features — rather obviously — President-elect Donald Trump's furrowed brow, signature hand gestures and iconic combover coif of hair.

The 23-foot tall bird — with golden feet and hair — was constructed ahead of the start of the Year of the Rooster of the Chinese lunar calendar, the New York Times reported.

Since winning the presidency, Trump has ruffled feathers in China. He took a phone call from Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen, prompting Chinese state media to call Trump a "diplomatic rookie." He also chided China for their monetary policies and military operations in the South China Sea. He also accused the country of stealing a U.S. Navy underwater drone, which the country later returned.

Time magazine reported replicas of the statue are being sold on Taobao, a website similar to eBay.
