the boy who cried wolf
Graeme MacKay's cartoon reimagines Aesop's fable as 'The POTUS Who Cried TARIFF,' with Donald Trump's exaggerated face shouting on a fiery book cover. Representatives from USA, Mexico, and Canada sit at a table, showing exasperation with speech bubbles like 'Good Grief not him again!' and 'Ugh Repeat flare-up?' The tags USA, Mexico, Canada, trade, diplomacy, tariff, Donald Trump, USMCA, NAFTA, The Boy Who Cried Wolf, Aesop, and fable underscore the satire on repeat threats becoming ineffective. This visual pokes at how constant warnings lose impact in international relations.

Bagley depicts the federal deficit as an unruly pet during the Trump administration, capturing the 2018 budget reality in which defense spending increases combined with the 2017 tax cuts to produce deficits that dwarfed Obama-era borrowing. The cartoon exposes the selective outrage of Republicans who screamed about deficits under Democrats.
