Frank Gehry has revealed that French president Francois Hollande has given him his word that he could self-exile to France now that Donald Trump has been elected the 45th President of the United States.

Winner of the 1989 Pritzker Prize, Gehry also offered his insights on the approaching election warning that, much like politicians, “Most buildings built in the world are not interesting.

But, as the paper Le Figaro points out, Gehry might have good reason to leave the US (beyond the urge to show resistance, that is).

In a frightening campaign that saw one debate devolve into a discussion about the size of his manhood, it is safe to assume that those few centimeters hurt Trump.

It remains to be seen whether he will act on his promise following the result of the election.
