1. I love the caricature...

...of President Fatass.

[forgotmylogin]

6. It's honestly not that exaggerated.

[PJMcK]

23. His "doctor" claimed Trump weighs 253 lbs.

Look at those pictures. At 6'2" there is no way he weighs that little. I'd wager he's closer to 275-280. Since he lies about everything, we know he's not telling the truth about his weight.

In any event, he's still an idiot.

[klook]

25. Has plenty of gravitass (nt)

[rock]

29. My estimates show him

at 6' 1" weighing 165.

[haele]

35. That's his ego, correct?

Either that, or your estimate is really 6'1", 265 lbs. 'Cause that's what I estimate when I look at the pictures, even if a photo "adds 20 lbs..."
(That "20 lbs" comes from the optical illusion created in a 2d representation of a 3d object. HD photography comes closer to showing real weight - around 5 lbs over; but you still can't tell some people that.)

Haele

[rock]

37. Well, yes

EVERYTHING's his ego, of course. But I'm going by pictures of Trump and Obama standing together on level ground. Obama at 6' 2" has about an inch (in height) on Trump.

[AtheistCrusader]

41. I'm 6'2", 280lbs and I look trim next to Trump. One inch doesn't explain that.

He's pushing 300lbs.

[forgotmylogin]

53. Also, muscle weighs more than fat.

Allegedly this guy is about 6'3 and ~280. Scott Milne.

[forgotmylogin]

39. I read that he added an inch to his height

Making himself 6'3 so he wouldn't qualify for "obese" categorization at his weight at 6'2.

[sarcasmo]

40. Over #300

[Scarsdale]

54. Maybe the doctor

meant that is tRump's weight - with an EMPTY diaper? Looks like it is full in those photos.

[Marie Marie]

43. President Bubble Butt

[anneboleyn]

45. That second pic resulted in me snorting water up my nose. Unpleasant sensation but worth the laugh!!

As you said it isn't that exaggerated. He has really ballooned in the last year or so. You know Melania luuurves having that tub o sweaty lard panting and pawing and dripping nasty body odor sweat all over her. Bleeeech. No wonder she leans backwards whenever he tries to grab her for a smooch.

May I also mention that his hair is just gross?! Too long, mangy, and unkempt?

[forgotmylogin]

52. I think the second one is the reference for the comic, only reversed.

And I totally agree. He would look so much better if he'd get a buzz cut and neatened the hair instead of that frosting-layer o'hair that always tries to escape in the wind. He's got access to a stylist I'm sure. Darken it from piss yellow to a light brown. He is probably fixated on the idea of "I'm a rich thirty-something raconteur with tousled blond locks".

[madaboutharry]

2. Trump will rage

about the big fat ass. The "broken windows" will go right over his bleached blonde head. He won't get it.

[MoonRiver]

7. He'll rage but refuse to do anything about his corpulent self.

Fast food all the time for Fatso, cause he's entitled to whatever his repulsive self wants.

[JDC]

11. The Taft of our time. Bathtubs are over-rated

[maddiemom]

55. Good one! I'm sure Trump showers.

A college boyfriend was 6'2, 190 lbs by his athletic stats, and certainly a different distribution of weight. He was still a big guy, but Trump does look more than 45 lbs heavier, even if you squeezed his weight upwards. Golf is no exercise unless you're walking the course, and Trump certainly doesn't look capable of doing that. Well done steak with ketchup? Proof enough that the man's a Philistine despite every advantage. Not "taking care of one's self" can have any number of psychological reasons but Donald is a real puzzle in that regard. He looks like hell and certainly can't feel good or healthy. Does he think himself immortal? Massive insecurities behind the braggadocio? No comfort to the rest of us. Donald is the ultimate "Fortunate Son," (CCR, 1969, and allegedly inspired by Nixon's sons- in-law). The number of the more competent and saner Republicans out there, however I disagree with their policies, is staggering. Yet the way the other Repub primary candidates responded to being run over by Trump says very little for them. The real horror lurking out there, however, is Trump's diehard followers. "Idiocracy" was once a comedic film.

[The Blue Flower]

3. An example of why art is so powerful that they want to defund it

A brilliant cover.

[gratuitous]

34. Boss Tweed hated it, too

The famous caricatures of Tweed that Thomas Nast did were so aggravating to the corrupt head of Tammany Hall, he was reported to have told his toadies to "Stop them damn pictures." Tweed knew that the immigrant masses of New York might not comprehend the reams of stories about his corruption, but Nast's drawings translated across every language barrier.

[maddiemom]

56. Still, as for the obesity part...

Corpulence was a sign of success and prosperity in the Boss Tweed era.

[Achilleaze]

4. republican tax-dodger squanders taxpayer money to play with his putter

k & R - the new yorker always does good work.

[FailureToCommunicate]

14. *IF he can find it.

[luvMIdog]

5. Normally I do not fat shame, but since he spent most of his life doing it to women I'm ok with it

[anneboleyn]

48. Exactly. Trump has viciously shamed women (and men) for years. Any shit he gets is justice

for his appalling comments over the years and harassment of women in his various beauty pageants as has been alleged.

[Fla Dem]

8. I love editorial cartoonists. They just seen to capture the essence of issue so well. nt

[yankeepants]

9. Wait 'til he gets a load of that load!

[Lucinda]

10. KNR

[alterfurz]

12. meanwhile, over at The Economist...

[Submariner]

20. Whiffing the ball in a sand trap

seems even more appropriate. Can't get his agenda unstuck.

[vlyons]

26. what agenda?

did you mean the self-servng agenda to turn his presidency into a cash cow?

[BSdetect]

24. Nah, he would just cheat his way out of the sand.

[SunSeeker]

32. Brilliant! nt

[riversedge]

38. Trump keeps digging his hole deeper each week. Great image

[alterfurz]

47. "If you're in a hole, stop digging...

...if you're an a-hole, stop."

[Puzzler]

13. That's pretty bloody brilliant!

10/10 !!!

-Puzzler

[Cha]

15. Wow.. trump can frame that one and add to his collection

Mahalo, rivers.. so brilliantly true!

[FailureToCommunicate]

16. "But, but Obama played golf too!"

[George II]

17. Eerily symbolic of Kristallnacht.

[DDySiegs]

33. George -- That's a Very Astute Comment!! n/t

[PSPS]

18. Why the lazy post?

[amuse bouche]

19. That is awesome

It looks like a haunted house full of ghouls

[PatrickforO]

21. Not very flattering, for sure.

With any luck, this guy will be out of office within a few months. This Russia deal is really starting to take over everything else.

[Paladin]

22. The "New Yorker" nails it, yet again.

Great portrait; very realistic, in more ways than one.....

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

27. Trump loves being on the cover of major magazines.

But maybe not this time.

[lark]

28. Love the picture!

Drumpf will be totally furious that they showed his fat ass so prominently, I'm

[NBachers]

30. Where's Spicer, the black 'n' blue ball boy?

[Gothmog]

31. Great cover

[IronLionZion]

36. Years before Kristallnacht, the had the Night of Long Knives

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Long_Knives

All part of making Germany great again in spite of the triggered snowflakes against it.

was a purge that took place in Nazi Germany from June 30 to July 2, 1934, when the Nazi regime carried out a series of political extrajudicial executions intended to consolidate Hitler's absolute hold on power in Germany.

Dolt 45 has had several purges of his own staff. Some of them are starting to squeal. Flynn flipped apparently.

#NoLoyalty

[lunatica]

42. He's gained weight so I think he stress eats.

On some level he's not happy with how he's being perceived. He will get even.

[dixiegrrrrl]

46. I have read stories of his night time binge eating.

and of sending staff out for buckets of KFC and Arby's and etc.
Bedtime eating, not dinner.

[Lifelong Protester]

44. Great! Can't wait until it arrives!

[dalton99a]

49. Evil psychopath.

[hay rick]

50. The Trump presidency as vandalism.

Random destruction. Contempt for our heritage. Great cover- it captures a lot of truth.

I have always supposed that Trump got sent to a military academy because he had behavioral problems. I don't think it helped. He is now what he was then- a juvenile delinquent.

[GP6971]

51. 45/140 needs to keep some weight on his right food

so he doesn't slice or hook so much. Opinion of the pro at the local course.
