Bus-ted
A pair of artists will park Donald Trump’s actual campaign bus from his time stumping in Iowa — outside the Smack Mellon gallery in Dumbo today. Check out their creative adaptations of the original campaign materials, and then step inside the gallery to see performance artist Martha Wilson portray the Donald in her show “Politics and Performance are One and the Same.”

Hari up!
Comedian Hari Kondabolu’s tour supporting his “Mainstream American Comic” album comes to Brooklyn tonight. The self-described “killjoy who does comedy” offers plenty of cutting political commentary, and the presidential campaign has surely given him plenty of new material. The early show has already sold out, so get your tickets now!
