Two stereotypical rich guys with top hats are flush with cash and stand next to a down-on-his-luck man rattling a cup. One rich man says, “Look, a poor person!

This cartoon is titled “Scientific reports say the American economy will be hammered by climate change: Trump responds:” and then depicts Donald Trump in a parched landscape with his head buried in the sand. Two buzzards look on as Trump says, “Warming! Bah! It’s plenty cool in here! Oooooh! I think I see coal!”
