Top Panel ("Appropriate"):
A smiling woman (with Donald Trump’s face superimposed) sits at a desk. She looks at a screenshot of a tweet from Jack Posobiec that reads "86 46." A speech bubble from the woman says, "AWWW, YOU'RE SWEET," accompanied by a red heart. A smaller speech bubble above the tweet says "86 Biden."

Bottom Panel ("Inappropriate"):
The same woman (with Trump’s face superimposed) now looks distressed and is frantically calling someone on a desk phone. A jagged speech bubble reads, "HELLO, FBI?!" She is looking at a man (with Comey’s face superimposed) and a small, blurry image of the numbers "86 47" written in what looks like mustard or sauce. A speech bubble above Comey says "86 Trump."

King Charles III and Donald Trump are seated in matching yellow armchairs in oval office with heavily decorated with gold accents, elaborate molding, and numerous gold trophies or vessels on a fireplace mantel. Between them on a coffee table is a large model of Air Force One. King Charles is speaking with a slight smile, while Trump has a slumped posture and a somber expression.  


The King was received in the Petrified Gold Vomit Room.
