On February 4 2025 the cartoon depicts Donald Trump aboard a tank constructed from gold coins marked with dollar signs and tariff labels. The vehicle advances across a globe bearing flags of Canada Mexico the European Union and China. A red banner proclaims Trump Tariffs as the barrel extends forward.
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.
