RJ Matson's cartoon depicts President Trump as Cinderella, lounging on a throne while a grinning Congress elephant, adorned with a sash and dollar-sign epaulets, slips a black shoe onto his foot, exclaiming 'It's a perfect fit!!' A box labeled 'White House Ballroom' overflows with 'Taxpayer Funds,' and a $400 million tag dangles nearby.

The White House Correspondents Association Dinner at the Hilton Hotel lurks in the background tags, highlighting budget priorities amid fiscal debates.
