I'm working on a poster for the April 19th protest. Hopefully my drawing resembles that thing that's occupying the White House. I don't have a tracer art projector.
I would to say "IF SHIT HAD A FACE" written on my poster. I'm not 100% if that's what I want to go with because I don't know if young children will be attending this Saturday's protest.
Let me know what you would write on this poster. I haven't decided and it's obviously not finished just yet.
I'm on my way out the door to go to work but I'm picking up several colors of craft paint after work.

4/19/25 Edit: update of finished poster.

(19,800 posts)Come up with something along those lines that is snappier. I think pushing the he doesnt care about regular folks will carry more weight as it speaks to his actions vs his innate ignorance/stupidity/narcissistic personality.

I think your saying is good! As another poster suggested, "poop" vs. "shit" would be good considering the potential for young children in attendance!
Very, very well done!

(12,126 posts)I always worry about what children see. I didn't realize that people were taking them to protest and exposing them to working middle finger signs.
I'm not a prude but I worry about what children see.

(23,067 posts)Here is a pic of it going in the same direction as the OP's drawing.

(24,763 posts)other way in the poster.
LuckyCharms
(23,067 posts)I see the picture going the same way as in the drawing, but it doesn't matter since caricatures are meant to capture a likeness, and not be exact anyway.
And the drawing really captures the likeness.
