Trump looking desperate on latest magazine covers

With the latest magazine covers featuring President Trump, you get the sense that the noose is tightening on the Donald.
For over a year, media reports have been saying that Trump colluded with Russia on the 2016 election and that he’s hiding a lot of dirty business deals. With Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller running a wide-ranging investigation, the media is speculating that any day now he’ll bring down Trump and his cronies. We’ll see.
What follows is a look at the latest magazine covers featuring the 45th president of the United States.

The Dec. 29 cover of Newsweek depicted a soaked Trump emerging from a Deutsche Bank money-laundering machine.

The Dec. 18 & 25 double issue of the New Yorker illustrated a Scrooge-like Trump in the foreground with former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn as a Christmas caroler, presumably singing like a canary to prosecutors.


The Dec. 22 & 29 double issue of the Week depicted a cast of cartoonish characters from 2017, including golfer-in-chief Trump.


The Dec. 11 issue of Bloomberg Businessweek showed Trump at the center of the “fake news” problem.


The Nov. 24 issue of Newsweek illustrated Trump’s relationship with Fox News.


Finally, the Nov. 11-17 issue of the Economist depicted an American bald eagle with a Trumpish flop of feathers.
