Tariffs and debt: Top ten cartoons of the week

Trying to keep up with news out of Trump’s White House is a Herculean task even the nation’s top cartoons have a hard time pulling off.

Chris Weyant touched on the madness in our most-reprinted cartoon this week, which features a dizzy trade representative nauseous over the administration’s ever-changing tariffs.

R.J. Matson’s cartoon about the national debt, appropriately represented by the Grand Canyon, hit Trump as he tries to push his “big, beautiful” budget bill through the Senate. His former billionaire buddy Elon Musk isn’t helping by calling the bill a “disgusting abomination,” in part because it’s projected to add trillions of dollars to the federal debt.

After their recent dust up, you’ll see plenty of Musk vs. Trump cartoons in the coming days. For now, here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Chris Weyant

#2. R.J. Matson

Mother’s Day: Top ten cartoons of the week

Sunday is Mothers Day, in case you needed a reminder. So this week’s list of our most reprinted cartoons features a number of pieces celebrating the mothers of America.

But our most popular cartoon of the week was a poke against relentlessly high grocery store prices, drawn by John Darkow. I’m not optimistic things will get much cheaper anytime soon, especially with Trump’s tariffs on deck. That’s good for cartoonists and bad for everyone else.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. John Darkow

#2. Dave Whamond

#3. Dave Granlund

#4. Dick Wright

#5. Gary McCoy

#6. Chris Weyant

#7. Bruce Plante

#8. John Darkow

The Trump show: Top ten cartoons of the week

Welcome back to the Trump show!

It’s been a dizzying few days, with Trump issuing executive orders on everything from immigration to crypto. Some people are exhausted, as Dave Whamond illustrated in this week’s most-reprinted cartoon.

I also enjoyed Jeff Koterba’s cartoon, which features Trump on the edge of a cliff (with his trademark giant red tie) making a show of unity to Democrats. Jeff had a busy week – he drew four of our 10 most-reprinted cartoons on a number of topics, including TikTok and a ceasefire in Gaza, news that appeared to get lost in the wall-to-wall coverage of all things Trump. Get used to it.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Dave Whamond

#2. Jeff Koterba

DEBATE DREAD: Top Ten Cartoons

Our list of the most-reprinted cartoons was a real smorgasbord this week, with topics ranging from the increasing role of artificial intelligence to the collapse of Red Lobster. I particularly enjoyed Bob Englehart’s cartoon about the tough needle cartoonists need to thread these days to make it onto the opinion page.

Editors loved Chris Weyant’s cartoon about next month’s presidential debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. Though I don’t think CNN will be promoting it as “The Geezer vs. The Sleazer.”

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Chris Weyant

My Missing Donald Trump Cartoon

Breaking news can make a cartoon go missing. I was finishing up the color on this Donald Trump immigration cartoon last Friday afternoon when the news about the Paris Terror Attacks broke. Clearly, newspapers would not me interested in Donald Trump for at least a week. I notice that it is only today that the Donald is creeping back into the news with word that he is now leading all the polls again.

I thought this cartoon would be provocative, I didn’t guess that it would be ignored. I guessed wrong.

John Boehner – No Mas!

House Speaker, John Boehner, just announced his resignation. I’m sorry to see him go, he’s a great character, although I didn’t draw him very often. Most of the cartoonists color him orange because of his unnatural tan, and I jumped on the bandwagon with that. Lucha Libre! (The color here is off, he’s not really that day-glow orange in the print version – I have a little compassion, at least in print.)

I also notice that politicians who are heavy smokers do a good job hiding their cigarettes whenever the cameras are around, so I make a point of giving those guys a cigarette in my cartoons. I did that for a while with Obama, but since he’s made an effort to quit, I quit giving him cigarettes also – although I notice that some conservative cartoonists still give him cigarettes.

The other thing to do with Boehner is to draw him crying. I suppose I should have given him a tear in his eye – just as I should do with the Statue of Liberty. Here’s a crying, quitting Boehner by my buddy, Rick McKee.
