Many thanks to our resident antitrumpist whistleblower in the wind! Steven Heller asked a few portraitist/caricaturists for our objective view of Trump’s removal of his portrait from the Colorado State Capitol. Insights, commentary and the unique perspectives of Steve Brodner, Victor Juahasz, Anita Kunz, John Kascht and myself: A virtual visual Rashoman. One picture is worth 1000 viewpoints.

Dorian Gray gave nothing less than his soul to escape the stain of an age that was at once sordid and sensual. No makeup artist; no Faustian bargain. Donald fully embraces his tawdry history and original sins, applies more Orange Sunset concealer to his thin-skinned self-tanned complexion; voilà! He’s ready for primetime, if not his close-up.
As the Con Artist himself has said, “good publicity is preferable to bad, but from a bottom-line perspective, bad publicity is sometimes better than no publicity at all. Controversy, in short, sells.” Of course, those bucks stop with him.
Note to Ms Boardman. Take the win.
