A 2018 political cartoon by Arend van Dam depicts a figure resembling Donald Trump firing a machine gun from a moving vintage car at a building labeled Free Press. Shattered windows with yellow stars and flames from the weapon illustrate the assault. The image responds to Trump's repeated public criticisms of major news outlets during his presidency. In August 2018, Trump continued to label outlets like CNN as enemies of the people. The cartoon uses a 1930s gangster motif to frame the conflict between the administration and the press.

The image shows a man in a denier shirt bound to a post amid flames and smoke. A second figure stands nearby also tied. The words climate change appear on the ground below. A caption has the denier asking for Visine because smoke from global wildfires clouds vision. The scene responds to 2018 reports of widespread fires in California and other regions linked to warming trends.
