Warren Brown
In Warren Brown’s cartoon, former US president Donald Trump has some unorthodox bathroom reading material. Trump pleaded not guilty in June 2023 to a 37-count indictment relating to removing classified materials from the White House. After his presidency it was alleged that he took a range of classified documents to his Mar-a-Lago home, including nuclear secrets, and refused to return them even when ordered to do so by authorities.
