Trumpless Debate


Here’s your cartoon for this week’s CNN Opinion Newsletter. Please sign up to get these in your inbox every Sunday

I’m not entirely confident in this cartoon anymore. A colleague messaged me and said, “I read the spotlight as the light of god who took him up,” and that was within just a few minutes of it being published. He then said he thought it was a good cartoon. Then, someone on Instagram who’s probably never seen any of my cartoons on Trump before accused me of believing that Trump was sent by God. Ugh.

It has received a lot of positive comments and a healthy amount of shares, but I’m going to be irritated by the yellow light forever. I should have left it white.

Anyway, I have two other ideas on the debate and I’m trying to decide which of those to draw tomorrow.

Signed prints: The signed prints are just $40.00 each. Every cartoon on this site is available. You can pay through PayPal. If you don’t like PayPal, you can snail mail it to Clay Jones, P.O. Box 3721, Fredericksburg, VA 22402. I can mail the prints directly to you or if you’re purchasing as a gift, directly to the person you’re gifting.

Notes on my book, Tales From The Trumpster Fire: There are 19 copies of my book in stock, which go for $45.00 each, signed. Also, I have copies of my first book from 1997, Knee-Deep in Mississippi available for $20.00.

Tip Jar: if you want to support the cartoonist, please send a donation through PayPal to clayjonz@gmail.com. You can also snail it to P.O. Box 3721, Fredericksburg, VA 22402.

Watch me draw:

  1. My problem with this toon — if I have one, not really sure — is only the Trump podium has a microphone, and he can’t use it. It is almost like saying T4ump is the only one of all the goons smart enough to speak. Along with the Golden light as mentioned above. it feels like it gives credence to his presidential run.
    Now, I know you did not mean that, but If an snti-Trumper l8ke me can see that….

  2. I saw this Claytoonz on CNN Opinion yesterday and loved it! The art stands alone with no words needed and your intended message was clear. Do not be concerned by negative reviews. “We must not allow other people’s limited perceptions to define us.” – Virginia Satir. P.S. The yellow light is perfect!
