The two pictures that sum up 2017

This week, President Trump entertained guests Sarah Palin, Kid Rock and Ted Nugent during their visit to the Oval Office.

Now I know just reading that beggars belief, but it happened.

If you're struggling to wrap your mind around it, pity cartoonist Steve Brodner, who drew an almost identical meeting last year for the Boston Globe.

But wait, it get's worse.

Not only did the picture correctly depict Palin and Nugent together, it also placed the musician's stars and stripes guitar at the meeting... Which is ironically speculated to be made in China.

This is yet another eerily prophetic prediction. The Simpsons can take the rest of the year off.
