The Soviet avant garde produced much better agitprop than this hack.

This idiot, and his “work”, should simply be ignored. That’s all it deserves.

Fitting this guy’s name is ‘fairy’. Personally, I’d punch him for the Obama hope poster.

You have not done the job, Mr. Fairey.
You didn’t provide a depiction of the actual president.
Can we not agree that Donald Trump has a distinctive appearance? There is no reason to pretend otherwise, unless your goal is to purposely insult the President-Elect.
We already have plenty of Sore Losers and Big Babies who are doing that.

Now watch an enterprising graphic artist do this, use the same style and color scheme to show The Donald.
This artist is going to make a lot of money.
Your poster showing the generic faceless minority will go nowhere but in the ashcan of advertising history.

His stuff is pure crap. They look like photos he simply used certain Photoshop effects (like posterize) on. And, they are divisive, blatantly propagandist garbage. The man hasn’t even been sworn in yet, but this knee-jerk (emphasize “jerk”) libtard is already smearing Mr. Trump with untrue insinuations. I hope his childish scrawls are relegated to the trash cans they belong in.

Burka: a long, loose garment covering the whole body from head to feet, worn in public by many Muslim women.

And the MAGA thumbs up...

Genius that
