Your commentary is spot-on and the art says much too, except that he's basically already pulled the plugs. I'm furious at Congress for doing nothing long ago to pull the plug on Chump.
Though their names differ, love how you've equated them visually and purposely tangled the wires between them, showing how they're interrelated and codependent. As good a metaphor as any.
Come on, crawl under the rock of embarrassment with me. There’s a whole nation under here. The only consistent thing about trump is that he’s inconsistent to the extreme. Now he's talking again about putting “boots on the ground” over in Iran. He’s bringing the draft back so he can sacrifice the lives of young men and women in his silly idea of “conquering countries”. He’s tried everything his brain has thought of with Iran, muscling into the Strait of Hormuz with naval destroyers, begging Iran to make nice and allow merchant vessels with oil to mosey on out and whining about depth charges that mean, old Iran has seeded in the Strait. The negotiations for peace are on…no they’re off…no they’re back on. He says he’ll do this, Oops, no he’ll do that instead and then wind up doing neither, sitting around thinking about what country’s sovereignty he next can invade and pretend he’ll “take over”. He’s a malignant narcissist after all.
Can you imagine what world leaders say about the US behind closed doors? And of course they talk about how the American people are idiots to have elected him president in the first place. America used to have the respect of the world. Our reputation was well-established during WW II. We were tough, independent, smart and brave in the eyes of the world. Now we’re all laughed at by world leaders. Can you imagine this loud, lumbering and socially-inept guy meeting China's polished and intelligent leader Xi in a few weeks?
All that and his Epstein nightmare is still there. No amount of war, gold statues, ballroom, arches or blue paint will make that go away. I fear he’s willing to blow up the whole planet to avoid the truth being exposed.

Masterful, both cartoon and blog.

Have we ever had a president as embarrassing as this one?

And the cartoon and commentary are superb, as usual.
