Donald Trump's presidency has given ample material to the world's satirists and cartoonists, but the most powerful man in the world has also come in for some ribbing from some more unlikely sources.
This week, vodka brand Smirnoff released an advertisement with a not-too-small nod towards the current brouhaha erupting over former FBI director James Comey's testimony to the US Senate about Trump's alleged links to Moscow.
"Made in America," the ad says. "But we'd be happy to talk about our ties to Russia under oath."

"The recent interest in American-made products created the perfect opportunity to reinforce that fact and the brand's roots in Russia - with a wink and nod to current affairs."
