Donald Trump is outside in a blizzard, reading the State of the Union and buried up to his neck in snow that is labeled “POLLS”. The wind howls and blows his hair. He says, “We’re the hottest country in the world!”

This cartoon is titled “The State of the Union.” A smug-looking Donald Trump stands at the podium. Everything else in the room is pandemonium. All the people in the room are wearing professional-wrestling style masks and singlets. They have been split into Democrats in one color and Republicans in another. They are fighting each other and jumping from the top rope. Chairs fly and burly politicians in the singlets tackle and grapple with each other.
