A new editorial cartoon by Dave Granlund depicts Donald Trump dressed in a spiked leather harness and holding a spiked mace and whip. The president figure asks which staff member dares to deliver negative poll numbers. The image responds to ongoing concerns about poll results and internal staff dynamics during the Trump administration as of late August 2026. The visual uses exaggerated attire and props to highlight tensions over unfavorable polling data. The cartoon underscores the pressure placed on aides amid disappointing survey outcomes.
