In the Trump era, Trudeau has been at the top of his game. He has captured the absurdity, the danger, and the sheer insanity of the Trump presidency. He has also shown us the resilience of the American people, and the power of satire to hold truth to power.

One of the most memorable Doonesbury strips of the Trump era appeared in the wake of the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The strip featured a group of Trump supporters standing in front of the Capitol, their faces painted with the American flag. One of them is holding a sign that says, "We're just following orders." Trudeau's caption for the strip reads, "The Nuremberg defense, brought to you by Fox News."

This strip is a powerful indictment of the Trump administration and its enablers. It shows how the Trump cult has been brainwashed into believing that their actions are justified, even when they are clearly illegal and immoral. Trudeau's strip is a reminder that we must never forget the events of January 6, and that we must hold those responsible accountable.

Doonesbury has been a powerful force for good in the Trump era. Trudeau's satire has helped us to see the truth about Trump and his administration. It has also helped us to laugh in the face of adversity. Doonesbury is a national treasure, and we are lucky to have him.

Trudeau's Pulitzer Prizes

Garry Trudeau has won two Pulitzer Prizes for his work on Doonesbury. The first Pulitzer was awarded in 1975 for "his incisive and often hilarious commentary on American life." The second Pulitzer was awarded in 2004 for "his consistently high quality work that combines humor, satire, and social commentary."

Trudeau is one of only a few cartoonists to have won the Pulitzer Prize. His work is a testament to the power of satire to hold truth to power.
