Osmani Simanca's 2018 cartoon shows a map with USA, Cuba, Venezuela, and Latin America labeled clearly. Uncle Sam stands on the USA landmass, telescope in hand, gazing south toward a mustached man in a red suit on Venezuela. This figure, resembling Nicolas Maduro, raises a red card in one hand and a Venezuelan flag in the other, with a palm tree nearby. The Summit of the Americas tag suggests commentary on exclusion, while Uncle Sam and USA elements point to American oversight. Latin America spans the bottom, emphasizing regional dynamics in this straightforward satirical piece.

Osmani Simanca's 2018 cartoon depicts Donald Trump in a sequence of devolution: starting as a pudgy, naked humanoid with signature hair, holding a tiny club, then growing fur and a tail, eventually becoming a full monkey brandishing a large 'Monroe Doctrine' bat while advancing toward a sign labeled 'Latin America.' The imagery skewers the Trump administration's apparent revival of the Monroe Doctrine, tying into tags like Latin America, Donald Trump, Venezuela, Cuba, Secretary of State, and Rex Tillerson. This satirical take highlights concerns over interventionist policies, rendered in a simple, exaggerated style that amplifies the primal, regressive nature of such diplomacy.
