Trump's Bullying Will Blow Up In America's Face
I didn't have any specific issues for this cartoon. I was just inspired to do this cartoon because of my dislike of Trump's bullying and intimidation leadership style. I worry that Trump's policies and his bullying will eventually blow up in America's face.
I think this cartoon was influenced by the old Warner Brothers Looney Tunes cartoons that depict Elmer Fudd or Willy Coyote with a dynamite in their mouths blowing up in their faces.
Here are some articles on Trump's bullying style and its consequences to Americans.
"The bully’s pulpit: Finding patterns in Trump’s use of military force. Over two presidential terms, Donald Trump has used threats to intimidate his adversaries and mostly only employed force against his weaker victims. This pattern of bullying provides an insight into his future decision-making" by Jeremy Shapiro for The European Council on Foreign Relations

I looked at your work and love your experiments with animation.
Enrico, you're doing great work too!
Jean, I agree... it's a scary world out there.
Good one.
Nice analogy to the Warner Bros characters. Yes he is that bully that every middle school parent worries about torturing their child. America and the world are those children.
As always, thanks for the education. :)
