Donald Trump Exposed on New Yorker Cover: Barry Blitt Masterpiece

“The cover of the upcoming issue of The New Yorker features an image of Donald Trump standing nude as he answers questions from a gaggle of reporters with their hands in the air. A judiciously placed lectern covers a crucial part of the president`s anatomy as he points to a member of the press.”

Huffington Post

What message is the artist, Barry Blitt attempting to convey?

That the press and the public is so used to Donald Trump`s outrageous behavior, that nothing he does shocks us anymore? Indeed, if Trump held a news conference in the buff, the event would go on as planned, and not one of the reporters would inquire: Sir, why are you naked?

That the press has exposed Trump as an emperor who isn`t wearing any clothes? It doesn`t matter if the media has exposed Trump as a racist buffoon who is in over his head, his base still treats him like the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. If Trump held a news conference butt naked, the likes of Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham would tell their viewers that he wore a beautiful red tie, and a conservative blue business suit.

That Trump believes that the rules and conventions of polite society don`t apply to him, and that the public must accept him on his own terms? And by golly, if he does a press conference in the nude, the press must act as if that`s par for the course?

Blitt depicts Trump as a huge figure who towers over the assembled reporters. Is Blitt saying that Trump is a bigger than life figure, or is he simply illustrating the obvious fact that he is a fat pig?

I`m not sure what message Blitt was trying to convey, but I do know that he deserves a Pulitzer Prize. That huge naked illustration of Trump brilliantly captures his brazen decadence.

Magazine Covers Depict Donald Trump’s Passion for KKK

“The New Yorker, Time and Economist magazines inevitably wanted to feature Donald Trump`s white supremacy speech on their covers. Then the challenge was to find the perfect image.”

The Daily Beast

I so much despise the Trump administration that if I were the publisher of one of these distinguished publications I would opt for something scatological to capture the essence of our president: A piece of turd floating in a toilet bowl or a fart emanating for Trump`s sphincter-like mouth. Fortunately for the public, I don`t get to decide what image goes on the cover of these magazines.

But seriously, nothing captures the spirit of the Trump administration quite like a dunce cap or a KKK hood. The sheer stupidity and blatant racism that spews from the White House demands such provocative magazine covers that will motivate people to fight Trump until he resigns or is impeached.

The New York tabloids are notorious for their sometimes risqué and always controversial covers, and you would expect them to depict Trump as a Klansman or Hitler.

But Time magazine, the Economist and The New Yorker are influential and respected publications that don`t traffic in gratuitous controversy.

It`s not just the intelligentsia as illustrated by these magazines that is linking Trump to White Nationalism, millions of thinking Americans and billions of concerned citizens in the world think that Trump is a racist.
