McKee is one of many editorial humorists who have recently created cartoons about the mounting legal issues surrounding the Republican presidential candidate, including the recent indictment in Georgia related to efforts to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory.
This indictment, following a 2½-year investigation by Fulton County District Attorney Fani T. Willis, included charges against former Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani.
McKee explains that he wanted to capture the history of the indictments in a simple and fresh way, using a back-to-school theme and a recognizable caricature of Trump.
According to Mike Luckovich of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, mocking Trump’s alleged corruption has gone from fun to exhausting as the former president now faces a total of 91 felony counts across the four indictments.
Luckovich also finds it astonishing that many Republicans are still defending Trump despite the numerous indictments against him.
Steve Breen of the Creators Syndicate, inspired by cartooning legends of the Watergate era, sees Trump as a fantastic subject for satire and believes he provides even more material than Richard Nixon did.
While some editorial artists find joy in mocking this moment in history, it brings no joy to others.
Lisa Benson, a cartoonist for Counterpoint Media, is hesitant to satirize Trump as a potential White House contender and expresses concerns about him becoming the Republican nominee.
