I first saw this when Vanity Fair's Molly-Jong Fast reposted it on BlueSky (above and at this link). Then doing a little web search I saw that Rachel Maddow talked about it on her show, watch brief video here:
This was reported on elsewhere, for example here:This article reminds us that he used the same illustration before he bought Twitter, only with the name Donald Trump on the monk or priest, as if the convicted rapist and notorious proud pussy-grabber would have to pray to resist the titilating temptation shown.
It turns out that the artist who created the original, Milo Manara, is not particularly happy about it being used.
I wish Elon Musk would be forced to tweet a thousand times:"I will never use Milo Manara drawings again without permission. I will never again use Milo Manara's drawings without permission. I will never again use..."How about I sue him, asking for $44Bn in compensation? Then I could buy back Twitter and give it back to someone else to manage!
There's no reason to reiterate what I think about the way Trump has surrounded himself with deeply insecure men who mask their unconscious doubts about themselves in hypermasculinity. I wrote "The penises on the Potomac: the country has enthroned phallocentric rule" a few days ago and I think it is worth republishing it again in light not only of this, but also in consideration of the sexual allegations or sexual abuse history of some of his nominees. This is the subject of 'Historic': Lawmaker calls Trump nominees' sexual misconduct allegations record-breaking in RawStory.
Here's my previous blog:
Excerpts:
Trump picks Matthew Whitaker for NATO ambassador," the news outlet Tennessee Holler told readers Wednesday. "You may remember him as the acting attorney general who was on the board of a company that boasted toilets for 'well-endowed men.'"
"Whitaker was also a cartoonish, grifting dope who shilled for a company that hawked time-travel cryptocurrencies, Bigfoot dolls, and toilets specially designed for men with big d----," GQ reported at the time. "[It] was shut down for good and paid a $26 million fine to the Federal Trade Commission earlier this year for its alleged wrongdoing."
