DescriptionThe cartoon shows President Trump in the Oval Office in the White House. On the desk in front of him are two red buttons, one marked Tweet and the other Nuke. A general looks on nervously. Let's hope he doesn't press the wrong button ...

AnalysisTwitter is Trump's favourite social media site and he has used Tweets to attack his opponents. The US president obviously doesn't have a nuclear button on his desk, but it's a common metaphor to say that he has his finger on the nuclear button. The cartoon is obviously supposed to satirize Trump's character and draw attention to how dangerous he will be as president.

Personal CommentaryIn my opinion the cartoon points out what many people - including me - fear: It will be very concerning to have a man as US president who has shown to be very quick in making decisions without apparently thinking much about it before. With Donald Trump as US president the world has become a more dangerous place.
