  1. Jokes on the Cartoonist there. Wasn’t there a rumour that Trump was into that kind of stuff?!

  2. CryptographerHot3109 on

    Given his latest tweet about Canada, Trump must have his mouth open for this to form an endless stream/circle

    Now on Truth social he claims that he will add another tarrif on canada if they retaliate. This will be fun as there will be 1000% tarrifs (accumulation of retaliations) and they (usa) will not be able to build any new homes as they require a lot og timber from Canada.

    Oh boy lets bring out the popcorns.

    Even the cartoonists, who are supposed to be observant, can’t get this shit right. It’s not going to blow into his face. It’s going to blow all over the American people.

  5. He’s not pissing on his own face here, he’s pissing on the faces of the American people. He’s going to come out of this richer than he’s ever been, and it will be the citizens who drown in piss. He and his billionaire buddies are going to swoop in and buy up the ruins and ashes for next to no cost and become richer than they could have ever dreamed.

    Not like that exactly. That piss will hit the consumers and not the orange thing. No matter what happens, orange thing will find something to blame and his followers will believe him.

  7. Then why do other countries in the EU and Canada have tariffs? Why is it bad for the US to implement tariffs on countries that put tariffs on US goods?

    We’re speedrunning the last century, we had the economic crisis, roaring twenties, the Great Flu, the mini WW1.1 still ongoing and now Trump is going to introduce the tariffs and trade war that led to the Great Depression.

    Can’t wait for the third proper world war we are being led into.

    The scary thing is half the American population don’t realize how bad tariffs are for them. They just clap along to anything the big orange moron does as though it’s the greatest idea ever.

  10. I am getting tired of these smug and clever-seeming cartoons that miss the mark entirely on what is happening.

    Trump pissing on his own face, shooting himself in the foot – any of these analogies – ONLY work if he is an American president working in the interests of the american people and clumsily failing at that.

    He is not. He is a foreign agent working for himself, for Russia, for the monstrously wealthy.

    In that light he is accomplishing exactly what he has been tasked with and what his diseased and cruel little mind wants: personal power for himself, and for his handlers and masters the erosion and destruction of the postwar sphere of western influence.

    This cartoonist is sleepwalking through a crisis.

  11. Sound like its better to have US tariff on Canada products? Lol, then Canada should start tariff first to force US increase tariff and hurt US more

  12. Except he’s not getting piss on his face, he’s pissing on the citizens of the United States

  13. blackie-arts on

    most of the piss actually comes on average US citizens, he has billions to spend (or steal from the government)

  14. Confident_Pop_9292 on

    Someone will need to ‘splain it to donny cuz he ain’t gonna understand that picture

  15. OptimismNeeded on

    Yeah people keeps saying Trump will lose, Trump is cooked, Trump is done, Trump will be in jail, Trump won’t be able to pay the fines, Trump won’t be able to pay the loans.

    Somehow, he is still here, creating more damage, and more chaos than ever.

    Stronger, richer, more powerful.

    Stop underestimating him, start realizing how dangerous the enemy is and start fighting instead of whining.

    Leftists just can’t shake the belief that he is stupid. I don’t care if he is, I don’t care who’s pulling the strings. Wake. The. Fuck. Up.

  16. Almost correct. These tariffs won’t affect Trump at all. He’s pissing on the American people.

  17. Reading Reddit makes me think that Europe is only capable of drawing offensive cartoons and making mocking parade sculptures of Trump and Putin.

  18. ThatDudeFromFinland on

    This asshole can barely stand, there’s no way he pees standing up.

    I feel like this almost downplays the tariffs by implying that they’re a humiliation for Americans but inconsequential for Canada. Canadians are justifiably furious right now because these tariffs will force their economy into a recession. The tariffs aren’t just self-defeating, they’re massively destructive to the countries we’re levying them against.

  20. ssushi-speakers on

    He’s not pissing him his own face, he’s pissing in the face of American citizens

  21. DarthPineapple5 on

    Completely wrong. He’s peeing on OUR face not his. This won’t impact him and his billionaire buddies one iota when the economy goes into the dumps.

  22. Grumpy_McDooder on

    Great, so how about all of the other countries remove their tariffs against US imports!

    Trump only implemented tariffs against countries who had tariffs against the US.

  23. We have been under taxing Europe, and eating VAT tax for decades. Come on people. Don’t be a sheep

  24. Lumpy_Adagio6652 on

    Yea except it’s not his face that’s getting pissed on – it’s the American people

  25. If only. Truth is he is pissing on the American people, and some of them are eager to take it.

  26. Turbulent_Pool_5378 on

    Sorry but this cartoon isn’t accurate, this crap is just enriching the clown and his cronies, the piss isn’t blowing back on him its blowing on american citizens.

  27. Well, now we know why he wants tariffs so badly. The pee tape rumors are true!!

  28. But then when the other country involved imposes their own tariffs, it’s not like this, right? That’s how it works? It’s brilliant if Trudeau does it

    I tried to AI generate a similar photo of trump peeing on a map of USA and title the image “the golden age”
