Guy Parsons draws a bloated, orange-faced figure resembling Donald Trump, decked out in a golden crown and royal robe, clutching a scepter in one hand and a hand mirror in the other. The speech bubble proclaims 'You will LOVE ME!' against a backdrop of red curtains, tying into tags like USA, America, Army, 250th anniversary, Trump birthday, and no kings. This setup pokes at delusions of monarchy in a nation founded on rejecting kings, with the mirror emphasizing self-adoration. The cartoon's timing, around Trump's birthday and the upcoming 250th anniversary of American independence, underscores the irony of a leader aspiring to unchecked power. Parsons' style keeps it bold and colorful, making the satire pop without subtlety.

Tom Janssen's cartoon captures a Trump caricature, complete with red cap, standing beside a Pope figure on a blue globe, both pointing ahead. The speech bubble reads '...WE AMERICANS LEAD THE WORLD..!' This satirical image pokes at American exceptionalism, global leadership, and perhaps the blending of political and religious authority. With dry humor, it illustrates how figures like Trump assert dominance, while the Pope's presence adds a layer of irony to claims of leading the world. The composition is simple, emphasizing the oversized characters atop the planet, symbolizing oversight or control.
