Sesame Street's word of the month is: "Virtue signaling!" Like Jesus fuck lmao people learned this term and now they can't shut the hell up about it. Pfft. Whatever way to invalidate someone's opinion, I guess?
Anyway, funny stuff! Great work on the shading, especially in his skin tone. His comically oversized tie is a nice touch as well- keep it up!

Thanks! Glad you like it. Virtue signaling is such a useless term. Especially since accusing someone of virtue signaling... kinda signals your own values. Except in a roundabout way so if you call them out they can just default to "I never said that/I'm just tirred of that PC bullshit"

great pixel art, but you know, lets not get political here okay?
Can the virtue signalling stop on newgrounds? As much as I hate everyone in the white house. Good artwork, but not a front page material at all. It's Can newgrounds specifically focus on good artwork that isn't asking for controversy as this could be considered another adult topics artwork due to having politics being very honestly considered high controversy? I am questioning who is in charge of the front paging. As these aren't worthy contenders for lack of composition, and typical good pixel art. I consider any of your work that, except this.
I like the pixel art, but the politics and religion, including description seem very insincere and ham-fisted. I like myself satire, but the "har har trump is stupid joke " is dead. Deplorables was genuinely funny though. I am sick of artists being super political right now.

Maybe don't click on a thumbnail of a piece of Trump art?
If you don't like politics on Newgrounds it's a good thing you weren't around during the Bush days.
It's a strange bunch this pic has brought forward. Won't somebody please think of the poor poooor president of the United States ?!
Not that I particularly like the pic, the eyes and lips seem too big and the hair isn't uncomfortable enough to really remind me of Trump but eh, who cares.

It's wild to me how many people will jump to defend powerful rich people. Being critical of your elected officials is so important. Even politicians I like/align with my views have things worth criticizing and should be held accountable for their mistakes/misdeeds.
And yeah I agree with you, while I meant to give him a more caricatural appearance I might have swayed too far from trump in places. Thanks for the feedback.
