This cartoon takes place on a frozen landscape near the water. A polar bear stands near a sign that reads “Welcome to Greenland.” A man in a jacket and hood speaks to Donald Trump, who looks quite angry. The man holds a piece of paper that reads “Directions to Epstein Island” and says to Trump, “Wrong island.”
