Last week's work

Trump again. I am amused that he is still in the race. I've had conversations with folks from where I grew up. The general political leaning seems to be Republican. Maybe Libertarian. Everyone watches FOX News or CNN and none like Mr Trump. But because of the ridiculous amount of coverage they give him they are under the illusion that he is universally liked... I guess? No one there likes Trump at all. I suppose there is the group that just looks at the headlines and never read the rest of the article who listen to Trump. They think he is totally all about their concerns. My observance has been that Trump reads the headlines about what the news seems to think is important from Drudge Report or Breitbart and then spits those back out filtered through whatever flavor his brain is in that day. No one seems concerned with follow through. Just that he said this "crazy and unsubstantiated" idea out loud. Then to show he really has fascist tendencies, when a respected journalist asks him a logical question about building a physical wall along the Mexican and American border, he gets removed and disrespected as if he was a lunatic. Later protesters have been removed as Trump said disparaging remarks insinuating they should be beaten. He is a fascist.

The media that has covered Trump so much doesn't have the discipline to ask important questions or question the validity of his answers. I think he would disappear in a week or two if the press had this discipline.

Hopefully you are not visiting this page for my ''genius" political insight. So here's the art.

First sketch above. They didn't like the red or the white star pattern I suggested.

My first finish. I was concerned about the escaping air looking too stylized and cartoonish. But I thought "Trump is very similar to a cartoon. So why not?..." Well, It was getting late at that point but I spent a little longer to digitally soften the air and turned that in because I wanted to sleep and not get a phone call asking me to do something about the air. I got plenty of sleep.
