Uncle Sam might be sad, but the trapping is quite intentional. Uncle Sam could have said no, but he didn’t. There are thousands of uncle Sams out there today saying yes. And that’s terrifying.
He did something and didn’t realize the consequences?! I’m shocked!
The system’s checks and balances prevent any one person from having enough power to cause problems like this.
yet everyone responsible for enforcing these ‘checks and balances’ is conveniently silent or getting locked out or fired. This so called system isn’t a machine computer program that works with no human intervention
Would have been a better comic if the bucket just said tariffs on it rather than needing a sign
Now it’s easier to reuse the meme next time this happens.
There, now it’s good to use every day for the next 4+ years:
Perfect!
If they can’t get other countries to play ball and the tariffs continue, they’ll forge ahead with getting rid of income tax… that’s the plan. Income from tariffs to replace income tax; it’s a super regressive tax on the workers and small businesses, but the billionaire class will only soar to higher heights.
Wait, what’s the door in this metaphor?
Nothing, it’s just the exit. It’s about the phrase “Painting yourself into a corner”
I’m not sure if you are making a very deep philosophical point here or are just saying don’t overthink it
I think you’re overthinking it, trump choose to put himself in this situation = uncle sam choose to trap himself in the corner
It’s just the exit…
You can open it to see all the people scratching their heads over this tactic.
could mean closed opportunities but it’s not 100% clear that this was the artists intention
I think it means “there’s no way out”

Canada, Mexico, and the EU bshoyld all work together to tax the shit out of US products.

I’m sure the people who made this decision will be alright. The rest (including those who voter for them), not so much…
Like any part of the current administration would care about stepping in wet paint.
