If You Hate America, Leave

A political cartoon by Branco, published by Americans for Limited Government and Creators.com in 2019. The cartoon is divided into two panels. In the top panel, four caricatured women with distressed expressions are shown, each making a statement starting with "America stinks!". From left to right: one woman says "The Holocaust gives me a calming feeling"; another woman in a hijab says "Jewish money controls Congress"; a third woman says "US has concentration camps"; and a fourth Black woman with dreadlocks says "We don't need black faces that don't want to be a black voice." To the far right, a caricature of Donald Trump, with blond hair and a suit, states, "If you hate America, leave." In the bottom panel, the four women, looking enraged, are yelling in unison at the Trump caricature, "That's un-American, you racist!" The Trump caricature looks back with a slight frown.

Listen up, buttercup. This cartoon is showing some folks who are always complaining about America, saying pretty wild stuff. Then, a guy who looks like Donald Trump tells them, 'If you hate it so much, just leave!' And what do they do? They instantly flip out and call him 'un-American' and 'racist.' See the irony there, smoothbrain? They criticize America, but *he's* the un-American one for telling them to leave if they don't like it. It's about hypocrisy, you dope.
