It was a year like we’ve never seen before, like being stuck on a cruise ship piloted by a coke-addled baboon but we made it and 2018 is almost here.
As is our annual tradition, we’ve assembled our original, satirical graphics that have appeared in articles throughout the year here at PlanetPOV. They help to express the events and sensibilities that colored this year. We hope they help raise at least an occasional smile while looking back on the year of 2017.

All of us at PlanetPOV wish you (and our country!) a happier New Year in 2018!
Each image is worth a thousand words, AdLib. And then some!
And the combination of your amazing verbal wit throughout the past (crazy) year with these hilarious pix is one of the best coping devices we’ve all had.
Charlie Chaplin, Spike Jones and other comedians took some impressive shots at Hitler during the WWII era, and I can’t help but feel that those took a toll on der Fuhrer’s image. Presenting him as someone “beatable” was more important than many Americans probably realized at the time.
With your help (and maybe a little assist from Andy Borowitz and Dave Barry), der Trumpster is looking more beatable by the day.
Here’s to 2018!
Hey Kes, thanks for all the kind words!
I couldn’t agree more about how important it is to hold an aspiring tyrant up to ridicule, to damage the propagandized, powerful image he tries to instill in the minds of the masses.
When he can be seen in ridicule, he becomes vulnerable and can be taken down.
Trump will never be able to undo the damage done to his phony image, mainly because he’s caused most of the damage himself and others simply shine a humorous spotlight on it.
Wishing you a wonderful 2018, Kes! I think many better days are ahead of us in this upcoming year.
Thanks for all the laughs throughout the year, AdLib. It’s been a blast!
2018 here and so far not bad. Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year, and see you on the other side of your midnight.
Thanks for making us laugh out loud in times when it was hard to even crack a smile. Cheers!
Thanks Kalima, you’ve also kept me smiling through the year with your wit and wisdom!
I do think 2018 will be a better year than the last two, we finally can do something meaningful to stop The Madness of King Trump and we will. There will be so much enthusiasm out there all year to GOTV and elect Dems into power in The House and hopefully The Senate…not to mention high offices in state governments.
And the majority of the Mueller indictments are coming down this year, I think they’ll turbocharge the enthusiasm to vote Dem that’s already so powerful!
Hope you had a wonderful holiday season! Big things ahead this year, hope you got some rest!
