Trump wants to be the American version of China's Xi. He wants to be a dictator. He's acting that way right now and daring us to stop him.

The Senate Republicans’ tax plan would add nearly $3.3 trillion to the federal deficit over the next decade. It was never about “saving money”.

This is a political cartoon depicting two men and a large device labeled "TARIFFS."

One man, who strongly resembles Donald Trump with his signature hairstyle and a red tie, is shown sitting on a raised platform. He has a jovial expression.

The other man is lying on the platform, seemingly restrained by straps on his wrists and ankles. He is wearing a white t-shirt with "MAGA" written on it and a red baseball cap. A red laser beam from the "TARIFFS" device is pointed at his foot, which is positioned over a cut in the platform, suggesting it's about to be sawn off.

The man resembling Trump is exclaiming in a speech bubble, "THIS IS GOING TO BE GREAT!!" The overall tone of the cartoon appears to be critical or satirical, suggesting a negative outcome related to tariffs for those who support the "MAGA" agenda.
