A political cartoon published July 18, 2024, shows a large book cover parody titled Shillbilly Elegy by J.D. Vance. The cover displays the subtitle A Memoir of a Political Opportunist and a Party in Crisis. An illustration of the White House with a flag on the roof appears at the bottom of the cover. Three yellow stars line the left side of the image with the phrases REPREHENSIBLE., CULTURAL HEROIN., and NEVER TRUMP in red text, the final phrase crossed out by a black line.

The cartoon coincides with the Republican National Convention where former President Donald Trump accepted the presidential nomination and selected Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his vice presidential running mate. Vance had previously written the memoir Hillbilly Elegy and had made public statements critical of Trump before endorsing him. The parody alters the original book title and adds text that references Vance's past positions.

The image uses the book format to present a visual summary of Vance's political trajectory. The crossed-out NEVER TRUMP line draws attention to the change in stance. The White House depiction places the subject in the context of the presidential ticket. The cartoon appeared days after the convention concluded in Milwaukee.
