“It’ll apply next week, whether it’s one or the other. And it’s nice to take a break and not have to draw Trump—or Hillary, for that matter.”

Barry Blitt's New Yorker cover for the issue dated November 14th:



At the link, there are more of Blitt's covers from the mind-bending 2016 election season. Not all of them, though. Not this one of Hillary Clinton, the fighter.

If America was one unified gestalt consciousness I imagine it would be saying:

"I mean, yeah like...what did we do to deserve these two idiots? Wait...don't answer that."

Imagine a magazine for people who never leave a 10 block area except on a plane or a cruise ship. People who think food grows at Safeway and the economy is powered by unicorn farts. You have the NYTs, err I mean the New Yorker.

No one wears a porkpie hat anymore on the train

Eric the Fruit Bat म्हणाले...

Mr. Blitt is pretty damn good at what he does.

damikesc म्हणाले...

Not going to look at his prior work, but this is pretty good.

Known Unknown म्हणाले...

The Hillary as a fighter looks more like Althouse as a fighter, frankly.

Nicholas म्हणाले...

The cartoon of Hillary takes a lot of artistic licence; her eyes are both aligned .

Just remember anyone that wants the job is someone you really don't want for the job. You can only pick from the pool of applicants.

Bill Peschel म्हणाले...

My publisher hired Blitt to draw some famous writers for my book. I thought he did a pretty good job of it (link to my book cover).

Lucien म्हणाले...

Which one is "Turd Sandwich" and which is "Giant Douche"?

Hillary is manspreading but the man on the subway isn't

rhhardin म्हणाले...

That's a Trump wins cover. There's no NYC horror over Hillary.

Bad Lieutenant म्हणाले...

Not this one of Hillary Clinton, the fighter.

Looks nothing like her - this one has ankles, etc. As EMD said, it looks more like Althouse.

Curious George म्हणाले...

"You’ve got to respect or at least be impressed by someone who has been counted out many times but repeatedly gets up from the mat, ready for the next round.”

Nope. And nope.

Dave D म्हणाले...

When has HRC ever gotten up from the mat and/or been counted out? She has been awaiting/expecting her anointed turn for 8 years now and STILL had to cheat to get through the primary season......

SukieTawdry म्हणाले...

That's hilarious. I love it!

FWBuff म्हणाले...

I think it's very sad that the artist (and our culture in general) have no compunction about using God's and Jesus' names so cheaply.

Left Bank of the Charles म्हणाले...

He obviously has thrown the towel in.

Hagar म्हणाले...

Mainstream press cruel neutrality.

I Have Misplaced My Pants म्हणाले...

When do we get to talk about that weird-ass spirit cooking business?

And, relatedly, what the actual fuck is this on the wall of Podesta's office?


n.n म्हणाले...

What are progressive wars, immigration reform, and watching videos at 3 a.m.

He missed a few headlines.

"When do we get to talk about that weird-ass spirit cooking business?"

-- Honestly, when I heard about that, I decided: "This is when we learn WikiLeaks has been trolled, isn't it?"

veni vidi vici म्हणाले...

His prior covers demonstrate he's all-in on Hillary.

The cover that's the subject of this thread demonstrates that he literally cannot picture a Trump win.

There's something vaguely pathetic about that.

eric म्हणाले...

New Hampshire, in the RCP average, was Hillary +8 last Monday. This past Monday it was Hillary +5.2.

Today it's Trump 1.6.

You've to get out and vote say these....

@Bill Peschel

Nice!

Big Mike म्हणाले...

@Bill Peschel, if I were to order one of your books through the Althouse portal, which one would you recommend?

mockturtle म्हणाले...

Hillary should be drawn in a Faustian context. Why has this not been the case?

mikee म्हणाले...

Persistent, decades long evil intent and corrupt action is not admirable, no matter what the New Yorker cover artist thinks.
