Political cartoons for October 31 | The Week

This political cartoon is set on the trading floor of the NYC exchange. Two male brokers are surrounded by computer screens. There are two large monitors and a list of stocks pictured near the top of the image. One of the screens shows an image of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao smiling. One trader says to the other, &ldquo;What is the crypto market worth today?&rdquo; The other responds, &ldquo;A presidential pardon.&rdquo;

This two panel political cartoon depicts a man in a small row boat on the left side. He sings &ldquo;Row, Row, Row Your Boat&rdquo; merrily to himself. The right side of the image depicts the man and the boat being engulfed by a massive explosion as a USA jet flies overhead.

New York mayoral candidate Andew Cuomo answers the door on Halloween in this political cartoon. He&rsquo;s frightened by a trick-or-treater shaped like a piece of paper with the words, &ldquo;Latest polls.&rdquo;

A man reclines on a couch in a female psychiatrist&rsquo;s office in this political cartoon. He says, &ldquo;I completely stopped watching Trump on the news, and the panic attacks stopped.&rdquo;

This cartoon is set outside the House of Representatives building where a sign that reads &ldquo;Government Shutdown&rdquo; is nearby on a stanchion. A group of four trick-or-treaters is checking out their candy haul. Three have lots of candy and are dressed as a Minion, a witch, and a ghost with a MAGA hat. The fourth is in a raincoat, tie, and carries a briefcase. He has no candy and the Minion says, &ldquo;Maybe your federal government employee costume was a mistake?&rdquo;

This cartoon&rsquo;s title is in the upper right corner and reads, &ldquo;Trump Says He&rsquo;ll Resume Nuclear Testing.&rdquo; The main part of the image is a brightly-colored mushroom cloud labeled &ldquo;Shutdown&rdquo; looming over a destroyed Capitol building and Washington monument. A voice from the White House says, &ldquo;Good thing the East Wing is already destroyed.&rdquo;

A man in a suit with a briefcase that reads &ldquo;Work Force&rdquo; carries a giant sign of protest in this editorial cartoon. It reads, &ldquo;Workers of the world untie.&rdquo; The &ldquo;untie&rdquo; has been crossed out and replaced with the word &ldquo;Unite.&rdquo; The man says, &ldquo;Artificial intelligence corrected it for me!&rdquo;

This political cartoon depicts a young boy dressed as batman and a young girl dressed as a witch. They are surrounded by three small piles of candy and one large pile. The girl looks at her candy and says, &ldquo;This is my chocolate pile, my gummies pile, my hard candy pile..&rdquo; before she looks at the large pile of candy and says, &ldquo;And my stockpile since the GOP ended my SNAP food benefit.&rdquo;

A man and a woman in a pick-up truck drive on a bumpy, makeshift road as construction cones fly about. The woman in the passenger seat says, &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t want to go four-wheelin&rsquo; Henry! Get back on the road!&rdquo; The man says, &ldquo;This IS the road!&rdquo;

This political cartoon is set outside the White House and the title at the bottom of the image reads, &ldquo;Trick-or-treating at the White House.&rdquo; One child is dressed as a Minion and the other as Sonic the Hedgehog. The Minion says, &ldquo;I got a chunk of the East WIng. What did you get?&rdquo; Sonic responds, &ldquo;Measles, probably.&rdquo;
