The other morning, as I was posting The Funny Pages to my blog, Carlos suggested I post political cartoons from around the world that show what some other folks — besides us and U.S. — think of [t]Rump.
I politely told Carlos to get his own blog … and then I found this:
The foreign press from around the world and their views of [t]Rump. Some are funny, some are high-larious, some are scary … none of them seem to be on his side.
So, in no particular order, here they are …
Bulgaria By Christo Komarnitski
United Kingdom By Ralph Steadman of New Statesman
Austria by Petar Pismestrovic of Kleine Zeitung
Canada By Micheal De Adder of the Halifax Chronicle Herald
United Arab Emirates By Paresh Nath of The Khaleej Times
France By Plantu of L’Express
Note that this one isn’t against just [t]Rump; that’s Hillary Clinton on the left. The cartoon insinuates that Trump is in the race just to make sure Clinton has an easy win in November.
The phrase translates to “Toward an eclipse of the moon” and refers to the legend that lunar eclipses—Blood Moons—are bad luck and how we could avoid the bad luck of [t]Rump by voting Clinton.
Australia By David Rowe of Financial Review
Scotland By Bryan Adcock of The Independent
Jordan By Emad Hajjaj
Ireland By Dan Murphy
Cuba By Ramses Morales
The Netherlands By Joep Bertrams
Which is your favorite?

ReplyDeleteJordan. Tell Carlos that was a great idea! xxoxoxo
ReplyDeleteIreland tied with Canada, but they are all great. Thx for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI can't pick.....their all good and very funny. Meanwhile I have a friend in England, and one Brazil. Both have told me in no uncertain term that both trump and Hillary are complete idiots and crooks. WELL!
ReplyDeleteThey're all great, but I think Canada and Cuba both hit a note for me.
ReplyDeleteCanada nailed it!
