Donald Trump stands in algae-covered Strait of Hormuz waters holding Iran peace deal fragments
IRAN PEACE DEAL COVERED IN ALGAE by Jeff Koterba, politicalcartoons.com
Koterba depicts Trump's Iran peace deal as already decomposing, covered in algae like a sunken shipwreck. The cartoon suggests the deal was hollow or insincere from the start, deteriorating almost immediately. The organic decay imagery implies diplomatic agreements built on false foundations cannot survive.

Cartoon shows three suited figures and a red carpet handshake
XI MEETS PUTIN AFTER TRUMP by Jeff Koterba, politicalcartoons.com
The image presents a simple cartoon scene with three figures in dark suits positioned along a red carpet. One figure with blonde hair is shown walking away toward the left edge. The remaining two figures face each other and clasp hands while standing on the carpet that stretches diagonally across the frame. Small motion lines and dots add basic movement details around the figures. The background remains plain and white with a signature block in the lower left corner.
