Keep on mocking this jerk. Maybe it will drive him over the edge to the funny farm (although I think he's over the edge already).

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/comic-riffs/wp/2018/07/19/latest-new-yorker-cover-mocks-trumps-comedy-of-helsinki-errors/


“BOTH CHAPLIN and Trump are iconic clowns,” New Yorker cover artist Barry Blitt told Comic Riffs last year, when describing his political spoof of the silent comedian’s classic film “Modern Times.”

Once again, with the magazine’s latest cover unveiled Thursday, Blitt is rendering President Trump as a cartoon buffoon who is still stymied and embarrassed by moving parts.

For the new cover, titled “Thumbs-Up,” Blitt employs a visual callback to when the president-to-be descended a Trump Tower escalator during the event to announce his run for the White House.

In the wake of Monday’s controversial Helsinki summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Blitt’s visual metaphor depicts Trump as falling face-first at the bottom of the escalator — yet still giving the thumbs-up sign as if everything’s great, terrific, the most fantastic we’ve ever seen.

It has an uncanny resemblance to a bathroom.

Then I thought about it and realized that all of TSF's interiors look like tacky bathrooms.
