The cartoon reworks the George Washington cherry tree legend with a blonde child resembling Donald Trump holding an axe and declaring Biden responsible for the cut tree. An adult figure in 18th century attire looks on while a horse stands in the background. The scene references ongoing political blame games and recent cabinet tensions involving figures such as Kristi Noem and Pete Hegseth amid rising oil prices and foreign policy friction in the Strait of Hormuz.

The cartoon by Adam Zyglis contrasts a 1955 segregated bus scene labeled 'BACK of the BUS...' with a 2025 scene where a figure marked DEI is thrown under a modern bus by Donald Trump, accompanied by the caption '... UNDER the BUS.' Published January 31, 2025, the work responds to recent debates over diversity, equity and inclusion programs following high-profile incidents including aviation accidents. It visually links past racial exclusion to current political rhetoric blaming DEI for systemic failures. The composition uses the bus motif to highlight continuity in scapegoating tactics across decades.
