Their conversation goes like this: “Why should I vote for you?” “I’m not Trump.” “OK, but what are you for?” “I’m not Trump.” “I know what you aren’t! Tell me what you are!!!” “I’m not Trump!” “Forget it, I’ll wait for ‘28!” “I won’t be Trump then either!”

This cartoon depicts a proposed data center in Utah. It’s pictured as the Death Star from the Star Wars films. The words around it read “Power requirement: Twice current output of the entire state of Utah.” “Water: They’re being cagey.” “Area: 60 sq. miles.” “Obsolesence: 10-15 years?” A small, bald man in the lower left corner looks at a bird and says, ala Darth Vader, “I find your lack of faith disturbing.” The bird replies, “Ack!”
