Currently, my favorite political cartoonist is Matt Wuerker at Politico.  (www.politico.com)

His pieces are always reflective and smart (and sometimes poignant) to me.  
 
Below are a few of his recent pieces.

The Gregory Brothers' 'Songify the News' releases are usually good for a few laughs.  (https://www.youtube.com/user/schmoyoho)

Wuerker really packs a punch, regardless as to whether the target is on the right, the left, or in the middle.

Smiley_emoticons_smile  It's sure looking like the field of 2020 Democratic candidates is going to be even bigger than the field of 2016 Republican candidates.

A.F. Branco is a prolific neo-conservative cartoonist whose pieces are featured in right wing publications and sometimes on FOX.  

I don't appreciate his stuff as much as Wuerker's because it's not as broadly reflective and it's strictly far right.

But, he's very talented and effective at capturing that markets' general point of view and media talking points.  

Here are a couple of Branco's recent releases.
