On February 4, 2025, John Cole's cartoon portrays Donald Trump as a brain worm emerging from the head of a Republican elephant. The elephant clutches a document noting RFK Jr.'s nomination advanced by the Senate Finance Committee.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp appears atop a woolly mammoth marked as the base. A MAGA cap sits on the creature while a Trump flag hangs from one tusk. Kemp points ahead and calls for forward movement. The image shows the governor attempting to guide the animal despite the prominent Trump element. The bottom caption reads leading from behind.
