Pinatas are fun.  Kids love to try to bash one and get that candy.  They also love to watch others flail "blindly" at the moving target.  Putting the pictures of Ms. Clinton and Mr. Trump on them superimposed politics upon some harmless fun and changed that into political theater.  Instead of turning Mr. Nice into another pinata, how about just acknowledging it was a "cute" idea which didn't work out real well and moving on.
