Time Magazine And The Many Covers of Donald Trump



Over the last two years Time Magazine has had many good covers of Donald Trump.

Covers that reflect the different chapters of his depraved reign.

With some real.



And some fake.



Some heartbreaking.



And some too true, too brilliant, but too shocking to print...



But although I like all of them I think I like this trilogy by the Brooklyn artist Tim O'Brien the best.

The one that begins with this one...



Continues with this one...



And ends with this latest one...



Which I think best reflects the current state of the depraved dictator.

Up to his neck in legal troubles, treading water for his political life.

As the situation gets worse and worse.

Glug, glug, glug.

Until the happy day when Trump finally ends up in the place where he belongs...

The most fitting title for any magazine that a career criminal like Trump should ever be featured in?

I see he's lost some weight on the prison diet. Putin is still going strong though.

There are still many small children separated from their parents.

Don't forget the next in line is mad Mike Pence, the Dominationist. Anybody know if he is a Christian Zionist as well?

It is a bit like the Donald and Hilary duo. The repulsive vs. the horrible.

I do like the covers.

With all that water its too bad that with a simple pull of a lever its swoosh into the sewer where he belongs. Seems the Goodfella still has some fight left in him as the base are more than willing to ignore legal corruption in exchange for the perception he is protecting Americas traditional identity. Its a tough nut to crack as emotional stupidity seems boundless.
As per hacking protocol its likely Cambridge Analytica and the Russians set up a strong fire wall between their candidate and the election propaganda assault so the only real hope is to nail him on all the illegal activity he has engaged in over the years. Unfortunately the base just does not care that he is a criminal as long as he keeps on handing out the emotional candy even if its laced with a slow acting poison. In a Faustian deal of the century, key members of the GOP are even floating the idea that if the base protects them in the mid terms they will get rid of Sessions , Mueller and anyone else in the justice system who is not loyal to the crime boss.

Hi Jackie...you are far too generous. I want to see him on the cover of the trade magazine Prisons Today, using a toothbrush to scrub the floor of a Salvadoran gang leader’s cell...๐Ÿ‘ฎ‍♂️

Hi lagatta...yes, when I think of those poor kids, I believe Trump’s cell is far too luxurious. There must be a large parrot cage that could be used instead....๐Ÿฆ…

Hi jrkrideau...yes, over this whole nightmare hovers the horror of Pence. I recently read a story on him and he’s worse than even I had imagined. Still, surely he couldn’t be as emotionally exhausting as Trump. I get the feeling many of our poor neighbours are just hanging on for dear life, and anything would be better than the orange oaf...

Hi RT...yes, it’s depressing how so many Trump supporters refuse to believe anything bad about him, or don’t care. I thought I’d check out the comment pages of Breitbart the other day, and when I finished I felt like I needed to stick my head in a pail of cold water. Talk about clutching on to the thinnest of straws, and of course when all fails there is always the Deep State...
