A political cartoon depicts a donkey figure standing next to a defaced statue. The statue's legs are broken off at the ankles, and the pedestal is covered in graffiti with words like "FREE PALESTINE," "FASCIST," "RACIST," "BLM," and "WHITE SUPREMACIST." The donkey holds a spray paint can and is pointing toward the right while saying, "Trump's ballroom construction is proof of his total disregard for history."
