JOHN CHUCKMAN'S GROTESQUES: TRUMP - DONALD HAS ACTUALLY HUNG THIS "PAINTING" IN THE WHITE HOUSE - A BLEND OF KITSCH CALENDAR ART AND 1950s TRADING CARD AND MONUMENT TO AN EGO - IT'S SOMETHING YOU MIGHT HAVE A LAUGH AT IN THE DOLLAR STORE BUT YOU WOULDN'T DREAM OF TAKING HOME - NOTE TOO HOW TRIM THE "ARTIST" HAS PAINTED TRUMP'S GUT - THE PICTURE TELLS US A GREAT DEAL ABOUT THE ODDEST MAN EVER TO HOLD THE HIGH OFFICE AND IT'S ALL STUFF WE REALLY DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW

JOHN CHUCKMAN GROTESQUES: WILLIAMS - SERENA - IN FULL FURY OF SCREAMING ACCUSATIONS AGAINST A POOR UMP JUST TRYING TO DO HIS JOB - STUFF ABOUT PREJUDICE AGAINST WOMEN - SHE IS TOO MINDLESSLY FURIOUS TO REMEMBER HER OPPONENT ALSO IS A WOMAN (AS WELL AS A MINORITY PERSON) - NONSENSE LIKE STUFF WE HEAR FROM THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT THESE DAYS - SHE HAS A HISTORY OF ABUSIVE WORDS - BOTTOM LINE: SHE HAS ONE UGLY TEMPER AND CAN'T STAND LOSING BUT SOMEHOW THAT GETS LOST IN PRESS NOISE ABOUT WHETHER SHE HAS A POINT OR NOT

JOHN CHUCKMAN GROTESQUES: TRUMP - DONALD AT THE QUEBEC G-7 MEETING - A VERY REVEALING PICTURE FROM HIS TIGHTLY-FOLDED ARMS TO HIS MEAN SQUINTY EXPRESSION - HE SITS WHILE EVERYONE ELSE STANDS - RESEMBLES AN ANGRY TWELVE-YEAR OLD WITH A NASTY TEMPERAMENT NOT GETTING HIS OWN WAY - BUT THAT IS PRETTY WELL EXACTLY WHAT HE IS - SOME LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD

JOHN CHUCKMAN'S GROTESQUES: HASPEL - GINA CAUGHT ON CAMERA WIPING SOME BLOOD OR BIT OF FLESH OFF HER FINGERS - SHE HAS A DEVASTATINGLY CHARMING SMILE DON'T YOU THINK? - IT WAS THE LAST THING A NUMBER OF PRISONERS KIDNAPPED BY CIA SAW IN HER SECTION OF THE TORTURE GULAG - GINA IS SURE TO GET APPOINTED DIRECTOR - WOULD YOU BE CAUGHT VOTING AGAINST HER?

JOHN CHUCKMAN'S GROTESQUES: WILLIAM HARRY AND MEGHAN - POSED AS THOUGH FOR A SCENE IN AN EPISODE OF TWILIGHT ZONE - NO REAL SET OF HUMANS LOOKS DRESSES AND HOLDS PROGRAMS IN THAT FASHION - ALL COORDINATED PERFECTLY DOWN TO THE POPPIES - IT'S ACTUALLY RATHER CREEPY BUT THEN NOTHING COULD BE CREEPIER THAN THIS "ROYAL" MARRIAGE BETWEEN A MENTALLY-UNBALANCED PRINCE AND A B-ACTRESS PAST HOLLYWOOD'S AGE LIMIT FOR SEX OBJECTS AND DESPERATE TO BECOME A REAL PRINCESS EVEN IF THE PRICE IS MARRYING HARRY

JOHN CHUCKMAN GROTESQUES: TRUMP - DONALD PORTRAYED IN KITSCH PAINTING AS FLAG SAVIOR - IN THE OLD USSR IMAGES OF STALIN IN MOCK-HEROIC POSES WERE CHURNED OUT LIKE SAUSAGES - BUT THIS ISN'T EVEN AS CONVINCING AS THOSE - THIS RESEMBLES A PAINTED COOKIE JAR LID - IT IMPLICITLY SAYS THE PROTESTING PLAYERS ARE NOT PATRIOTIC TOO - AND OF COURSE TRUMP ACTUALLY HAS A LIFE-LONG RECORD AS A COWARD FROM VIETNAM TO COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF - AND HE IS A BULLY AND BULLIES ARE ALWAYS COWARDS
