Trump’s Twitter Voice Is Tremendous
When you’re frustrated by someone not answering or returning your calls, you can always turn to Twitter. “He may not be answering, but SOMEONE is going to hear me!”
When reading people’s posts on social media, you can usually hear the tone of voice that goes with it. I often hear Trump’s posts as a yell, and I imagine the moment of his composing the Tweets as an actual yell that must be alarming for the people near him. Whether or not this is what, in fact, happens is a question for the journalist, not the cartoonist.
Mike Pence made his first appearance in the last strip, no. 2, and he is a good foil for the seething id that is Trump.
It was fun drawing Trump’s wide, yelling mouth and messing up Pence’s hair.
