I didn't know MAD was still around. I used to love reading it!

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
-
But he's actually right. He perfectly understands how the modern economy works. As many other men of his social class, he spends/wastes money (I can't write "his money" because he mainly uses ours for a while ...), and the people pay his debts, endlessly. And people like it enough to vote for more
-
'When someone shows you exactly who they are' and you still vote for them
-
Nailed it!
-
Then NBS made him appear smart and decisive with their clever editing of The Apprentice
-
1992? After he showed the world that its actually possible to bankrupt a New Jersey casino when nobody else in the area had done so. 😆
-
I miss having a subscription to MAD

Yes - all inherited wealth invested bigly and badly

Spy magazine in the 80’s and 90’s Comments on trump “The short fingered vulgarian
Donald Trump Still Tormented By 'Spy' Magazine Founders
Decades Later, 'Spy' Magazine Founders Continue To Torment Trump
No journalists have scrutinized Donald Trump more — or infuriated him more — than Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter and Studio 360 host Kurt Andersen during their days at Spy magazine.
-
Neither.
-
I remember seeing him on my Gram's "scandal sheets" cheating on Ivana with Marla and there was some confrontation at a skiing place or something. He came across as a dirt bag way back then.
-
Mad magazine "shitposting before the internet yet more relevant than most internet celebrities"
-
Trump fuct children
-
And now he takes the same bankers to court.
-
Trump derangement syndrome has been around for THIS LONG?! I bet you could find cavemen with TDS, drawing Trump on cave walls while the MAGA cavemen breed with the cavewomen, and the cave libtard draws them through his tears each night
-
My family did work for the loser. He’s a deadbeat
-
MAD magazine! Brilliant
-
Long live Bill Gaines
-
This is pure Gold, unlike everything that 🍊imbecile touches!!
-
Then he went to the Russian mob for help. The End.
-
Donald Trump is and will always be a LOSER.!!!!!
-
A lifelong fraud - shame that he got away with it for so long
-
Bingo. . .
-
Oh the sheer madness of it all.
-
He's not broke now, he has all the grift he made off the presidency.
-
PRICELESS!
-
Trump has been viewed negatively for most of his existence. Do you remember Trump the board game?
-
russian banks took over from american banks
-
Already at that time he was known to be a con
-
Read it as a child. Loved every satirical word.
-
This deserves a follow for sure! MAD Magazine is the best!
-
"I only don't rape you because you don't deserve it"_ Bolsonaro, another friend of Trump, speaking to a female congresswoman in Brazil.
-
New Yorkers have been mocking Trump for decades.
-
Anybody with half a brain knew, and yet here we are...
-
And his ignorant followers still won’t clue in…
-
The worst of the worst. U can thank the likes of Barbara Walters & Oprah for giving him time on air when they knew he is a serial rapist.
-
He’s the original “Too big to fail” guy. Fuck NJ for bailing his ass outta responsibility for his casinos.
-
He was a laughing stock at one point in time. I remember those days.
-
MAD Rocks! I received my 1st "backseat" driver's license from MAD in 1972 or 1973. Loved them ever since.
-
🤣👍
-
Not from NYC but recall in the 80s and 90s he was the butt of many jokes.
I guess a lot of Muricans first exposure to him was The Apprenrice and let’s face it, being a reality TV game show host was his calling. But here we are…
-
They knew in “92”…
-
He is a legend in his own little mind.
-
He’s always been a loser con artist.
-
Below see a Mad Magazine reality check on Donald Trump and the hypocritical book that was ghost written for him. Also see a parody Trump book cover & a bookstore display using said covers, and the cover page and a portion of one of the five panel pages from a Robert Crumb fantasy about Trump.
-
The latter of course.
-
Much missed... Remember this one?
-
-
Das ist wahr! MAD war ein Klassiker. Ich denke, die Satire bleibt immer aktuell, egal wie die Zeit vergeht. Hast du noch eine Lieblingskarikatur oder eine bestimmte Ausgabe, die dir besonders im Gedächtnis geblieben ist?
-
How far we have fallen
-
He is the most successful failure ever. He's ridiculously dangerous because he is powered by a simple-minded self-belief. There is not enough room for us and his belief in himself. End it.
-
Russians bailed him out in the 1990s didn’t they?
-
Lol, I did. Thanks for sharing.
-
Wasn’t that the whole fraud he was eventually convicted of?
-
Nobody ever learns. Imagine if they took things seriously & had laws with real checks and balances, where would we be now?
-
He never not been a steaming pile of 💩...
-
Very prescient!
-
this is what i mean, the guy has been a fucking joke for decades
-
a little jewel from the past. There is nothing new under the sun when it comes to the convicted criminal, sexual offender, known as trump. his legacy is secure.
-
Thank you. NYC metro folks have been frustrated that no one will really listen to what was common knowledge of PT Barnum's best student routine grifts his whole life. This is mild. Some cartoons targeted his long rumored mob alliances, as their pawn not their boss.
-
Repost please
-
Don't believe me? Just ask Donald Trump.
With the golden ballroom, he's trying to turn the White House into a Taj Mahal.
-
Always loved Mad magazine. Classic Trump take down!
-
If you lived in NY or NJ you watched this happen.
-
Love it!
-
Trump has always lived off of the money of others…..the definition of a leech!
-
Oh crap, I remember that! I think I may still have it in an anthology book. 🤣 "What, me worry?"
-
That's MAD 🤯
-
-
It is not a secret that this guy is a scumbag.
-
Pretty sure this will start an impeachment movement. Watch this space folks!
-
The weird part is, here in 🇨🇦 , he has been regardeee as a buffoon & pariah since the EIGHTIES ffs
My grandfather used to refer to him as the bloated asshole
A con man through & through
That was 40 YEARS ago!
Not sure why the media & culture of🇺🇸 grovels for the child rapist so profoundly🤮
-
So sweet. Thanks for posting. RT right away. Yessir!
-
The whole world used to laugh at this guy. Now they're all either afraid of him or they worship him. What the hell happened between 1992 and 2025?!
-
Is that real?
-
My husband was Employee #7 at Playboy Casino in Atlantic City. Trump bought it and renamed it Trump World's Fair. Then the staff couldn't cash their paychecks. Trump told investors to fund payroll while he sucked the place dry. At Taj Mahal, he stiffed vendors, making staff bring their own TP 😡
-
Wowza
-
And nothing had changed
-
MAD was the most genuinely patriotic magazine ever published. It taught critical thinking skills and discouraged any tolerance for political and commercial spin, the close cousin of Orwellian Newspeak.
-
This needs more exposure!
-
So back in 1992 people knew Don was a Con. What happened?
-
The joke is on the sane citizens of the USA.
You had let it happen.
-
Am I wrong or are the fonts different in the copy beneath each cartoon?
-
It's clearly doctored. The font doesn't even match on the captions.
-
Remember when Barbara Walter’s called him out about the banks basically saying he was broke as he sat there talking about how rich he was?
-
I lived in Kansas City in the late 80’s. Even back then, all the way out there, we knew he was a sleazeball.
-
I remember back when Mad hit the stands in the later 50's and Mad Magazine helped me become the cynical smart ass I am today ... after I got clean of course. So much wonderful Mad history ... 😎
-
EXCELLENT!!
-
Trump was never a successful businessman; he only stopped collecting bankruptcies after he pivoted to being a useful idiot for money launderers back in the early ‘90s.
-
Too bad you didn't find this about 10 years ago. And then five years ago. And then one year ago.
-
They misspelled "whorehouse"
-
Yup its why I've always hated that POS
-
-
Anyone who grew up in NY or NJ in the 80's-90's knew exactly what a con he was.
Without daddy's money he'd be selling bootleg sneakers out of a sketchy van in Queens.
-
He’s been a miserable failure his ENTIRE life.
-
I always call him the Mad Magazine Mad King. bsky.app/profile/patr...
-
I don’t know if you realized it or not but, but this meme shows tRump-“Art of the deal”
-
Nothing has changed except he’s the most powerful dictator in the world now.
-
Disliked Trump first I heard Robin Leach mention his name
-
Gosh, when I was a young kid I could not wait until new issues of Mad came out. It was great.
-
Those were the days. It was the start of everything. He hates losing money.
-
He "says" he's broke. I don't believe that. Hiding assets. He doesn't have to use his own money when he's got the US coffers at his disposal. He may have his millions stashed in bank bags inside Ivana's final resting place.
-
📌
-
I've hated that motherfucker since the 70s. I was a teenager who knew better than these whackos today. Good grief.
-
The Right believes the left picture. The Left believes the right picture.
-
Epstein & Shame on Speaker & minions for their crimes against U.S. Constitution & Bill of Rights. Shame on this POTUS and his GOP minions in the Senate and House who did not hold POTUS & accomplices accountable for crimes before & during January 6, 2021. youtu.be/DXnHIJkZZAs #ProtectTheConstitution🇺🇸
-
Trump is punishing banks that refused to lend him money. Says it is discrimination.
-
Can he spell IDIOT?
-
Loved that mag!
-
When should we believe Donald Trump? When he says "I am guilty of being a sex-trafficking pedophile", perhaps?
-
Yeah, we do love MAD magazine! Thanks for sharing!
-
-
History repeating itself.
-
And I did!!
-
Boy did they get that right!! 😂
-
That’s hilarious
-
There needs to be a 3rd option. Like if Putin has ahold of his hair and is going to expose his bald head. Or his tiny peepee. Too much?
-
Wow
-
Even back then we knew him to be a fraud. Truthful Mad strikes again, even after being out of publication!!
-
I remember when he was a broke idiot. That's why he's fleecing the shit out of the USA !!
-
Literally classic...he hasn't changed a bit!
Same crimes to be rich & famous
-
in fact I remember this ...
-
This magazine and National Lampoon did real journalism.
-
-
Anybody of a certain age knows trmp's history -- as a phony. It's the cretins who never paid attention to anything serious in the world who have been taken in.
-
He's always been a crook. But he conquered the Stupid Caucus. Sadly, it's a big group.
-
The republican sewer is deep. Read Heather Cox Richardson’s Democracy Awakening. This mindset has been going strong since the Civil War.
-
And we chose this over a prosecutor because we didn’t like her laugh.
-
MAD Magazine did run a satirical Donald Trump cartoon in 1992
True. There was a cartoon of Donald Trump featured in MAD magazine in December 1992. THE FACTS: The cartoon appears in issue 315 of MAD magazine on page 26, according to research conducted by The Asso...
-
Left should read "when he pays someone to write..."
-
Surprising, and not surprising
-
In honor of Purple Heart day. I think the President should receive a Purple Heart for when he got shot in Pennsylvania
-
Priceless, 1992 LOL
-
Maya Angelou: 'When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.'
-
I started reading MAD 20 years before that, and I can tell you that they have always been prescient.
-
Deutsche
-
i wish i had the old volumes i had when the began MAD. when was the first issue published? seems like it has always been around.
-
And yet he still managed to fool many Americans in 2016 and 2024 that he was a great businessman. The biggest problem in this country (after racism) is poor education. MAGAts are mostly undereducated illiterates.
-
Yes, I do. Most of my young life.
-
please don't be fake, this is so good 😂
-
Love!
-
Spy magazine was pretty brutal towards Trump in the mid 80s. iirc they referred to him as the "fat-fingered vulgarian."
-
He's always been a liar and a criminal.
-
I’m impressed you had 30yo Mad Magazines hanging around !
-
The prescience of political cartoonists should shame the propagandists masquerading as professional journalists.
"Journalism" has fueled the rise of bipartisan fascism in America
Journalists embracing disinformation—usually to serve Wall Street and the Pentagon—made democracy a predictable casualty
-
Yep. Deutsche Bank.
-
Wooooow
-
What Trump was all about was widely known in the 90s. He’s been a part of the top culture for decades. It wasn’t until Mark Burnett created The Apprentice that people started believing he was a billionaire businesssman instead of a bankrupt failure. None of this happens without that show.
-
All of us in NYC knew what a miserable fuck he was back in the early 1980s.
-
-
Trump has never been broke.
He is a con-man
Tricking banks and lenders into giving him money which he then keeps telling them he has gone bankrupt.
The Art of the Conman
-
Love this - after 30+ years Trump is the same as captured by MAD!
-
No one has EVER known when to believe this POS!!!
-
Yeah, this shit didn’t just start yesterday.
-
O...M ..G!!!!!!!!!!!
-
It's always been out there,who his is. He's always been a lowlife and very publicly awful. A buffoon on his best day. If you were in NY & NJ, you knew he was a clown, long before he got his TV show. Most of us watched it like it was satire or kitch.
-
we've been despising him for a looong time here in the northeast
-
-
-
Impeach tRump
-
Ha
-
I will never understand how this known grifter got elected president...twice.
-
I know I'm old when stuff from 1992 is being posted as being black & white as opposed to; say, yesterday (feels like)
-
Those of us in NYC and NJ knew way back when. If I had a time machine I'd go back and do something about it. His administration is consciously killing people.
-
They are great! On that day, I did not know anybody named Donald Trump!
-
Wish I had my old copies of Spy Magazine from the '90s - they had at least one article an issue on the "short-fingered vulgarian's" drug use, shady doctors, shadier business dealings, etc. It's part of the reason New York City loathes him.
-
...and... the people elected Trump as president ....twice. So either the American people are stupid or the dems are awful. They dems are awful.
-
-
We knew. Anyone with a fucking brain that was alive in the 90s knows.
Cult members of his are functionally illiterate or suffering major cognitive dissonance.
-
Nothing has changed
-
I found him lacking in human decency since the 80’s. Never could understand the attraction some felt for him.
-
It's so frustrating that we had his number back then and, one reality show later, enough people thought he was a business genius to propel him to the White House.
-
Never
-
So wish we could have MMag return.
-
1992? That's how long NYS and NYC prosecutors let Trump crime.
-
There’s a typo in whorehouse.
-
You find prophets in weird places. Since the Roman Catholics took to murdering them (including their own) they tend to pop up as satirists or comedians. 🙂
-
I think the operative word is "never“. We should never believe Trump. That is except when he’s criticizing others: every accusation is a confession.
-
Exactly , he was a big time showman and a pathological liar then as he has been his life !
-
Dear MAD Magazine,
Never...the answer is never.
-
Love MAD magazine They actually told it like it was But loved the fold in page at the back
-
PEDOPHILE
-
as I'm find of pointing out, when Dolt 45 was running in 2015, he had already been a punchline for 30 years
-
True. And here we are, still asking the same questions about his "ability".
-
The handwriting has been on the wall for years and years telling everyone that Trump is a fraud, a thief, and a very low morals human being. I'm just as angry at everyone of his supporters as I am of this POTUShit.
-
He's been a POS from the day he slid out of the womb.
-
The original Onion.
-
A loser and a con. For decades. Refurbished by Russia and oligarchs into a wealthy man of the people.
-
Mad Magazine writers had that guy figured out decades ago.
-
MAD magazine and South Park are more accurate and news worthy than mainstream news media.
