This cartoon depicts stack of four steaks on a large tray. The steaks are shaped like countries and are labeled Greenland, Venezuela, Canada, and Cuba. Donald Trump sits at the table with a knife and fork in hand and a spilled can of Diet Coke. His face is not seen, but he is drawn with small hands and a red tie. He says, “Bring me ketchup! And cook ‘em thoroughly!”
