Try to pull yourself up from your faceplant worship position of The Donald, even if only for a few seconds, given that your attention span is about as short as Trump’s.
Do you even understand how editorial cartoons function? Given your observation above, it seem logical enough to conclude that you don’t. Let’s review the basics:
First, they employ hyperbole and simplification to make their points (otherwise, they wouldn’t be cartoons).
Second, they contain, at their core, elemental truths (at least as so considered by the artists drawing the cartoons).
Third, they are not to be taken literally since any reasonable person knows that they are, after all, cartoons.
Fourth, you clearly are not a reasonable person.
Let me repeat again, this time for your personal benefit (since, after all, this is a cartoon website and you are a student who is in obvious dire need of remedial educational direction from professionals who do this for a living). As to the facts supporting the cartoon in question, here goes (Take notes. There will be a test):
-Trump has shown himself to harbor deep racist impulses, as captured in public view on the record or as reported by numerous other credible sources, to wit:
-He has called Haiti and African nations “shithole countries.”
-He has said that Mexicans are rapists, murderers and drug-runners (with perhaps some of the rest of them being good people).
-He has urged more immigration from Norway (which is, coincidentally, 92% white);
-He has said that an American judge in Indiana with Latino roots couldn’t rule fairly on his Trump U. because he’s a Mexican.
-He has said that White supremacists who were marching in favor of retaining-on public land—Civil War memorial statues honoring the slave South were “good people.”
And that’s just for starters. The cartoon stands.
Now, memorize and apply. Good luck. This stuff can be difficult for stubborn, uninformed beginners like yourself.
