This time, it's personal finance (voted Most subtle comic of 2025)

A man whispers into another man's ear, reminiscent of the famous George W Bush image

MISTER PRESIDENT... A SECOND TRUMP MANDATE HAS HIT THE ECONOMY

A smiling orange plane with a red hat flies towards two towers. The left tower is destroyed, the word COVID on it. A second tower stands, with the word NASDAQ on it, and seems to be frowning. A confused building stares from below.

I'm sorry, but is this comic saying that COVID is a vital sector of our economy?

I think it means that Trump fucked up his response to COVID as much as the stock market is about to get fucked up

I like how one building is called Nasdaq and the other is Covid.

I think the confused building is supposed to be 7 WTC, featured heavily in the frothy shouts of your local streetcorner crazies.
