The Rise Of Trump Political Cartoon
“The rise of Trump”

In this political cartoon, you can see the Donald Trump, the Republican candidate in 2016 for U.S. President, cutting his nose with a saw to control a puppet of the people with the most basic and ignorant opinions.

I think the artist made an effective political cartoon because of the appropriate use of the symbols and the way he is making an argument with them. The big nose that Trump has on the cartoon represents all the lies he has said (because of the analogy of Pinocchio, a boy whose nose grew when he lied) and how he is taking advantage of that big nose to control the population with the most ignorant and narrow minds as he would’ve controlled a puppet. Basically, the title of the cartoon “The rise of Trump” and

    The cartoon that I chose is called Border Security. I find it very interesting that the cartoonist chose this type of background. Also having Border Security, NOT, and Amnesty all highlighted in red. The text in this cartoon is very unique to its time, because of the major focus that has been on border control. I believe that the cartoonist targeted a specific type of reader in this cartoon. That type of reader would be the nave and ignorant people focused on this topic of boarder security and bringing up unreasonable ideas as to why we need more border control and to send them back to their country. I also find it interesting that in this cartoon the Native Americans are talking about border security to each other, about the Europeans, just to find out that the Europeans in the future kill, rape, and steal the Native Americans land and people. To me it looks like the cartoonist is trying to get a point across that we need to take a look at ourselves and what we stand by, or perhaps the cartoon just may be telling us that this is a cycle. When talking about the exigence of this cartoon, the fact that I believe everyone should open their eyes and try to relate toward each other is my main motivation on writing about this topic.…

    On June 16, 2015, in the extravagant Trump Tower of New York City, Donald John Trump announced his candidacy for the 2016 presidency. While most Americans raised their eyebrows in bewilderment, comedians erupted in a dance that Happy Feet would envy. His bombastic personality, amorphous hair, and poorly photographed facial expressions have become some of the most popular political punchlines. Critics dissect his statements and possible solutions until they seem unrealistic, and some are, like building a “YUGGEEE” wall to separate America and Mexico. While Trump is one of the most successful men in America, he is portrayed in media to be an ignorant idiot by YouTubers, comedy writers, and even respected…

    It was a dark and confusing time, towards the end of the Civil War. The Union would soon find out how unprepared they were once the Reconstruction Phase started. There were many issues that needed to be handled, but the biggest one would be getting the Whites to accept African-Americans as citizens with rights. It was 1865, post-civil war, when Thomas Nast started to contribute to the views of public opinion through the use of his vivid political cartoons. Nast constructed three influential cartoons that helped change the views of Americans. He attempts to sway public opinion by depicting his characters as either good or bad figures, portrays the injustice Northerners and African-Americans faced, and mocks the conducts of the Confederates. Nast’s cartoons were extremely powerful; they allowed viewers to understand the problems that the nation was facing at the time…

    In the political cartoon, The Tom Toles the viewer's political opinion will affect the impact the viewer gets from looking at it. The obvious statement the comic is expressing is that President Obama has received the Nobel Prize before even starting the race. The man hadn't even accomplished anything yet! The fact that they had given him the award already most likely gave him a heavier burden than he already had. This political cartoon doesn't use examples or statistics but simply expresses how the award had been given without a legitimate reason. The rest depends on the viewer's opinion of Obama and their political stand.…

    Designers of all political parties, not just the Left, are capable of encouraging positive and negative change in the world. Graphic Designers, Cartoonists, and the Mainstream Media, are all aware of how impactful a strong emotional response can be, especially before a political event or poll takes place. Designers and Cartoonists draw inspiration from the media and social issues and incorporate them into their work. It is especially important that designers conduct more research than necessary to verify news sources and to keep in mind the potential political bias of the news source they get their information from. A picture is not exactly truthful these days and it is important to understand that the media can easily turn a picture into something it is not. Designers should take caution in developing political campaigns that use media stories and images to create more…

    The electoral cartoon that I chose was the one about Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. It show’s the two presidential candidates running at the moment playing twister. It’s my belief that the artist of the comic wanted to portray the pair as being malicious while also being childish about the election. I believe this because many people consider that the both of them have been handing the election unjustly and with aimless disputes. The cartoon depicts the two of them playing a game of twister with pungent expressions on their faces. The game of twister ultimately represents how they’re debating recently, similar to how children would in a kids game. Their sour faces illustrate how they argue about many topics and views, usually unprofessionally…
