On June 11 2025 Rick McKee published a cartoon showing Elon Musk in a crossed-out MAGA cap amid a sea of children. One child holds a newspaper headline linking Musk to Trump and the Epstein files.

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.
The cartoon depicts a papal figure on a balcony with red curtains, uttering peace and love, above a banner reading In Gloria Dei.

This satirical image highlights themes of political division invading religious spheres, with the crowd's exaggerated reactions parodying election denial tactics. The composition uses classic Vatican architecture to frame the absurdity, blending humor with commentary on extremism. RJ Matson's style brings dry wit to the fore, making it shareable for those tracking MAGA Republicans' cultural clashes.
On February 2 2025 President Donald Trump announced new tariffs targeting Canadian and Mexican imports.

John Darkow's 2023 cartoon depicts a figure resembling Jesus standing on a mountaintop with arms outstretched, uttering 'Have Mercy!' in a speech bubble.

The scene parodies a biblical moment, injecting dry humor into the religious setting. Tags like political cartoon, jesus boring sermon, donald trump arrival, sermon on the mount satire, biblical figures reacting, and religious parody highlight the satirical edge. The artwork uses simple lines and colors, emphasizing the contrast between the solemn pose and the dismissive reactions.
The cartoon shows Moses atop a rocky peak, stone tablets in hand, with Roman numerals visible on them. A crowd of robed figures gathers below, one raising a hand. The question in the speech bubble ties the ancient commandment to modern frustration with health insurance executives.

The dry humor underscores public anger toward corporate figures in insurance, making a pointed satirical statement without overt violence.
The cartoon shows a group of figures styled as a bronze statue, mimicking the famous Iwo Jima war memorial in Washington DC, where Marines raised the American flag during World War Two.

This satire ties into the 2024 presidential election, featuring tags like campaign 2024, Donald Trump, Kamala Harris, voter fraud, and MAGA. It underscores the heroic efforts of election staff amid heated debates over fraud allegations, blending historical reverence with contemporary political tension in a straightforward, humorous visual commentary on democracy's frontline defenders.
