I've been thinking of trying to de-caricaturize Donald Trump. I thought it would be fun to try and, since he's already a caricature, to make him normal looking.

I'm, like, not overly into labels. I've been referred to that way, but I tend to think of political cartoonists as constantly at it, producing more work than I do. I do, what, six or eight covers a year, maybe, and a bunch of illustrations as well, but how many do you create a year? I'm in awe of that, and I think the term implies being at it every day or at least weekly.

I felt it was more fun to knock people down than to build them up. I seemed to get a better reaction from my peers and from my friends when I was mocking stuff - which isn't necessarily anything to be too proud of.

I'm an adequatist! I would be happy with something adequate. Perfection's out of the question.

A cartoonist's style is created by weaknesses and personal restrictions as much as strengths.

I'm not a good businessman and I don't promote myself particularly well. It's best I don't talk to anybody lest I alienate myself.
