Exhibit A: &#8220;WTF happened to the United States of America?!!&#8221; started as a challenge I made to myself to come up with a Stormy Daniels joke. I really like the way this cartoon captures the way so many of us feel about how our once great democracy has turned into one big weird reality TV show these days.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/WTFM1-e1526988887301.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3000\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3000\" src=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/WTFM1-e1526988887301.jpg\" alt=\"WTFM1\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/WTFM3-e1526987827340.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2999\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2999\" src=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/WTFM3-e1526987827340.jpg\" alt=\"WTFM3\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Exhibit B: My better instincts came up with this next mug, which grew out of the fact that I&#8217;ve been to two political marches already in 2018. \u00a0This is rare for me as I&#8217;m not much of a marcher. They take too much time and leave me feeling insignificant and futile. And I really hate chanting dumb slogans in unison with strangers. I&#8217;m much more of a &#8220;letter to the editor&#8221; or &#8220;make a soapbox coffee mug&#8221; kind of guy. This design has gotten rave reviews from my fans and galleries, and I&#8217;m pretty sure we&#8217;re going to be making a lot more of them this year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3001\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3001\" src=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM1.jpg\" alt=\"VoteM1\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM1-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM2-e1526990122660.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3002\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3002\" src=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM2-e1526990122660.jpg\" alt=\"VoteM2\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM3-e1526990187662.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3003\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3003\" src=\"https:\/\/wallypots.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/VoteM3-e1526990187662.jpg\" alt=\"VoteM3\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Exhibit C: The insect art historians are going to have a tough time with this one, because I don&#8217;t\u00a0completely understand it myself. \u00a0Suffice to say it&#8217;s a mashup of two iconic sci-fi shows, X-Files and Westworld.
