A wheeled airline catering cart occupies the center of the frame, painted in the livery of the presidential aircraft: white upper body, curved blue lower panel, and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA lettered down the side. Its full height door hangs open on empty wire shelving. Above it a pale blue placard reads AIR FORCE ONE, with ONE struck through in red and RUN! added beside that word in the same color. Two neckties poke out from between the casters underneath, one of them the long red tie Donald Trump is known for, the only trace of the men folded up inside. The drawing responds to reports that Trump sheltered in an airline galley cart against an assassination threat traced to Iran, turning the most recognizable branding in presidential aviation into an instruction to flee. Jonathan Brown signed the lower right corner alongside inkstains.com and Cagle.com/brown.
