Tariff trouble: Top ten cartoons of the week
by Daryl Cagle
Donald Trump's obsession with tariffs is causing a melt down on Wall Street, where stocks are plummeting at the economic chaos being caused by his administration.
Several of our most popular cartoons this week were on Trump's on-and-off approach to tariffs, which is leaving everyone dazed and confused. Jeff Korterba drew a funny cartoon about an Easter bunny already reeling from high egg prices getting hit with tariffs from Trump.
Speaking of eggs, Chris Weyant's cartoon about a pot of gold being less valuable than a carton of eggs was easily our most-reprinted cartoon of the week, and for good reason. Trump ran for president promising to bring costs down, but the average price of a dozen eggs in the U.S. is up to nearly $6.
I'd suggest pouring yourself a glass of wine, but apparently Trump is going to tariff that, too. The only thing left to do is laugh at the absurdity by checking out our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:
