Here’s detailed alt text for the cartoon: --- A vivid hand-drawn political cartoon portrays the stock market as a terrified slalom skier navigating a steep, snowy downhill course. At the **top of the slope** stands a cartoonish depiction of **Donald Trump**, instantly recognizable by his exaggerated **orange skin**, **puffy yellow hair**, **beady eyes**, and a smug grin. He triumphantly waves a white sign that reads **“LIBERATION DAY!”**, marking the beginning of the crash. From his neck descends a **cartoonishly long, red tie** that stretches the full length of the slope, **doubling as the slalom track** the skier must follow. The skier, labeled “**STOCK MARKET**,” is shown in mid-motion, carving sharp turns as he zigzags down the tie between **slalom gates**. These gates are placed at intervals along the tie, each marked with specific **dates and plunging index values**: - **Wednesday: 42,225** - **Thursday: 40,546** - **Friday: 38,315** - **Monday: 37,030** The skier’s facial expression is one of panic, with sweat beads flying and legs wobbling, emphasizing the instability and speed of the market’s descent. The tie twists and loops through the gates in true slalom fashion, getting narrower as it approaches the bottom of the hill, symbolizing continued decline. The background is a whimsical wintery mountainscape with exaggerated slopes and a blue sky, but all attention is drawn to the twisting **red path** and Trump’s jubilant stance at the summit. The cartoon uses bold outlines and vibrant colors to emphasize motion and contrast—Trump’s celebratory posture juxtaposed with the market's downward spiral. This cartoon metaphorically illustrates the stock market crash triggered on “Liberation Day,” with Trump as the instigator and his red tie literally guiding the market’s plummet.

I can only imagine the bailout package they are drawing up for themselves.

As the saying goes, privatize the profits, and socialize the losses.
