Monday's political cartoons include Elon Musk's next project, the Democratic party's efforts to win more male votes, and Donald Trump's taco order.

This political cartoon is set in a doctor’s office with a middle-aged man sitting on a medical table speaking to his male doctor. The male patient looks confused and says to the doctor, “I’m dizzy. I’m nauseous, my head is spinning and I feel like I have vertigo.” The doctor responds, “How long have you been a U.S. trade representative?”
