New good one

As Donald Trump addressed a rightwing crowd in Washington on Tuesday, the audience roared in support – but it was a doctored onscreen display that ultimately took center stage.

At a student summit hosted by the conservative group Turning Point USA, the president stood before what looks, to the casual observer, very much like the US presidential seal. A thorough examination by the Washington Post, however, revealed some odd tweaks to the image.

First, the eagle has not one but two heads – making it look a lot like Russia’s coat of arms. And instead of holding arrows, as the bird does in the US seal, it’s holding golf clubs.

In other words, a proud presidential symbol was apparently reworked to shame Trump over two of the biggest targets of anti-Trump criticism – Russian involvement in the 2016 election and excessive golfing – and it was displayed behind the president for all to see.

Cash in one talon, golf clubs in the other.

New Yep, Spanish for ''45 is a puppet'' :)

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."

-- Isaac Asimov

New A First! ... arrant subtlety at a Nuremburg II Rally. Precious.
..May it grab lots of Ink; viral-armageddon?
New apparently the work of a graphic designer
and disaffected former Republican who is now doing land-office business selling branded products bearing the image in his online store. He’s also attracting the usual squads of poo-flinging flying monkeys on social media, but is, as they say, laughing all the way to the bank. Cost o’ doing business these days.

This is the kind of breakthrough most freelance designers can only dream of. Me hat’s off.

cordially,
New 'Meisterstück!' was my response to first view.
(Nice to have that confirmed by one with full-creds in the art).
Umm.. could you supply a linkie to His Store?
I just might 'BUY!' a coffee-cup with that emblazonment-writ-Large. It's the American-thing to do.

Orison detector? Should he become a near-Billionaire on this one coup??
Then. There's. Hope. for that (take-off-Power jet-blast?) against the House-of-Cads



Yes, puns are the cheeziest form-of-humour, but be generous; have a Havarti?
