What’s up with Iran?

Luis Ponce

After President Donald Trump made the executive decision to drop airstrikes in Baghdad that killed Iran’s top general, Qasem Soleimani, Americans started to speculate that Trump intended to start a conflict with Iran in order to distract Americans from his impeachment trials. “I used the game Jenga as inspiration for this political cartoon. The tower is supposed to represent the country’s stability and that’s why the American character carefully makes a move to bring impeachment into the picture. When Trump sees this he gets angry and decides to ruin the game by taking ‘revenge’ and taking out a block that would make the tower come crashing down,” NC Chant cartoonist Luis Ponce said.
