Donald America


"Donald America" by conservative political cartoonist Dan Youra at IamTrump.org portrays Donald Trump as the 21st Century's reincarnation of Wyatt (Peter Fonda), nicknamed "Captain America," in the 1969 movie "Easy Rider," the free-spirited challenger to the established order, who, along with Billy (Dennis Hopper), biked through the South and Southwest as vanguards of cultural change, sowing the seeds for political revolution, rejection of controlling elites, and an awakening of "Power to the People." Wyatt (Earp) and Billy (The Kid) introduced the world to the "Captain America" chopper with its distinctive long raked front wheel and its fuel tank painted in patriotic red, white, and blue.
