Trump Gang's Wild Ride on Plunging Stock Market
THE TRUMP GANG RIDES THE STOCK MARKET by Alexandra Bowman, CagleCartoons.com
Alexandra Bowman's cartoon captures the stock market turmoil under Trump policies, showing caricatures of Trump, Elon Musk, and JD Vance gleefully riding a rocket down a crashing graph line marked with IRAs, stocks, 401ks, and pension funds.

The 'WHEEE!' shout adds dry humor to the volatile Wall Street scene, poking at MAGA's high-risk economic ride.
