Artistic renditions of famous individuals are often capable of being adequately conveyed by a relevantly representative picture, sufficient to furnish a singularly accurate portrayal of the character or unique accomplishment of the recognizable subject. Illustrative examples are: Benjamin Franklin flying a kite in a lightning storm, Abraham Lincoln passionately delivering the Gettysburg Address, George Washington crossing the Delaware River, Jonas Salk peering into a microscope, or, memorably, FDR with his beloved dog, “Fala.”
There are certain depictions of personalities, foreign and domestic, whose cognizable portrayal evokes feelings of anger and repulsion, such as Adolph Hitler, Hirohito, Joseph McCarthy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and Fred Bundy. Recent events would appropriately include Jeffrey Epstein, the “Box Store” entrepreneur of childhood prostitution. Included in this category of repugnant personalities is our thematic “poster boy” depiction of hubris, defilement of the Nation’s Constitution, Rule of Law, and moral compass, the orange-dyed-haired, egocentric President, Donald Trump.
The latter, darling of the Nation’s substantial populist horde of citizens, and the enabler of irresponsible industrial polluters, has recealed himself to be a demagogic “snake oil” salesman, justifying his idiosyncratic lust for unlimited power, and pursuing policies, domestic and international, which have internationally degraded the historicly admirable reputation of our Nation, as well as its institutionally, democratic way of life.” His reprehensible policies are legion, as painfully specified in prior writings. In sum, we can empirically state that his hubristic, dictatorially autocratic Presidency has been inarguably inconsistent with the salubrious policies traditionally typifying the American Nation.
Donald Trump’s singular preoccupation with his own perceived interests, to the detriment of other dutiful responsibilities, relative to the Nation’s safety and its economic interests, as well as its tradition of humanistic policies, both domestic and foreign. is metastasized by a notable disrespect for the Nation’s Constitution, Rule of Law, and societally established moral compass; such impediment in authoritarian fashion, demonstrated by his lack of appropriate respect for the metaphysical existence of objective “truth,” existential to the endurance of human society.
In his flagrant disregard of the Constitutional architecture of the “Separation of Powers,” Trump has arrogated to himself, in his hubristic perception of Presidential power, the Constitutionally designated authority of the Nation’s Legislature, toxically infected the U.S. Supreme Court, and ubiquitously overstepped the constitutional pale of authority of the American Presidency. Sadly, a compliant Republican Congress has, disappointingly, ceded its legislative responsibilities and authority to the power-hungry Chief Executive, who improperly egocentrally chooses to legislate by”Executive Orders,” with the egoistic flourish of his thick and neurotically assertive, black felt-tipped ” Sharpie.” The autocratic orange “Hasmat” has also arrogated to himself the legal authority to unilaterally wage war in the high seas, impose tariffs on trading partners, illegally employ the military for perceived domestic needs, suthorized and financed a private, military styled uniformed and dystopic masked military-like force to xenophobically harass, imprison and deport peaceful Hispanic Americans, without a scintilla of legally mandated “due process.”
As more specifically enumerated, a multitude of fetid dum[pster-full loads of unconstitutional, illegal, and inappropriate acts, perversely including the heartless denial of empathic relief to the needy, while in incomparable violation of the Constitution’s ” Emolument Clause” enriching himself and family beyond the golden fortune of Croesus, prosecuting political opponents, interfering with the intellectual freedom of the Nation’s Universities, pardoning serious criminals who politically support him, befriending foreign dictators and publicly articulating, imperialist thteats to sovereign nations like Greenland and Americas’ “first cousin,” Canada.
Of all the plethora of repugnant, egregious, outrageously hubristic acts of the thematic Orange hazmat, we are singularly disturbed by his unpeakable vandalism and egocentricly obscene act of defilement and demolition of the East Wing of The Nation’s (the People’s) venerated White House, for his delusionallky declared purpose of constructing a three hundred-million-dollar ballroom; presumably, to satisfy his grandiose hubrism and neurotic thirst for self-esteem. Such lunacy is notably occurs at a time in our Nation, when working-class Americans are experiencing severe financial difficulties; the latter, an irrefutable consequence of Trump’s incompetence in the sophom imposition of illegal tariff policies. The revered institution is the historic symbolic property of the American People and recorded title of the governmental Parks Department. T
Trump’s defilement and insatiable, hubristic, and historically obscene demolition of the East Wing has rendered it in a Gaza-like rubble. Ironically, such vandalism and devastation are empirically analogous to Trump’s self-interested defilement of the Constitution.
Returning to our earlier declared context, viz., the recognizability of conceived depictions of popularly known personalities, we would thematically contemplate as an appropriate representational and popularly identifiable image of Donald Trump, as follows; artistically rendered as an overweight old man with vsarious smears oif ketchup on his face, dressed in dusty workman’s overalls, the latter, liberally besmirched with marble dust and other demolitional residue, grasping a sledgehammer in his right hand and a McDonald’s hamburger in the left, wearing jeweled Golden Crown on his head through which sdtrands of unruly orange-dyed hair juts out, and with wet, puckered lips and a smug but vacant look.
It is our conception that the suggested depiction of such a temporal, egregious despoiler of our venerable Nation would have commercial acceptability and pragmatic utility as a holiday “penata” or local saloon dart board.
