Marco De Angelis draws a caricature resembling Donald Trump, shirtless with a US NAVY life preserver, white shorts, and pirate hat, sitting on a large mine bobbing in blue waters. He holds a telescope to his eye, gazing out, while a small buoy nearby bears a Strait of Hormuz sign. The scene tags USA, IRAN, HORMUZ, NAVY, MINES, OIL, NEGOTIATIONS, FLEET, ALONE, ADMIRAL, MIDDLE EAST, WAR, capturing a sense of solitary watch in troubled seas. The dry humor underscores the absurdity of one man embodying an entire fleet, floating precariously on explosive hardware. Cartoons like this thrive on exaggeration, turning geopolitical standoffs into visual punchlines that newspapers love for their sharability.

Rick McKee's cartoon depicts a dimly lit museum where a striped-shirted thief, masked and wielding a hammer, targets a display case with a red gas can marked 'GAS,' overlooking iconic pieces like the Mona Lisa portrait, Venus de Milo statue, a large diamond, Van Gogh-style sunflowers painting, abstract Mondrian-like art, and smaller framed works. An 'EXIT' sign glows above, and a 'no' symbol sign hangs nearby. The scene uses tags such as Trump, war, Iran, gas prices, oil, museum to comment on how escalating fuel costs make gasoline more valuable than cultural treasures, blending humor with commentary on energy crises.
