This meme is split into two stacked sections. The top section is a classic screencap from the animated show *The Simpsons*, showing Bart Simpson holding a disembodied severed arm with a shocked, wide-eyed, open-mouthed expression. Below the screencap, large header text reads "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!", followed by a purported social media post attributed to Donald J. Trump that states there will be no diplomatic deal with Iran except for their unconditional surrender, after which the US and its allies will help rebuild Iran to be stronger, coining the acronym MIGA (Make Iran Great Again) as a parody of Trump's famous MAGA slogan, with the post marked as issued from The White House. The joke draws a parallel between Trump's extreme foreign policy demand for unconditional surrender from Iran, the absurd Simpsons visual of accepting a severed arm as a surrender token, and historical high-stakes surrender agreements signed at Versailles to emphasize the outlandish severity of the stated policy.

This is a 4-panel comparison meme. The top left panel shows a bright, bustling view of Times Square in New York City, USA, a popular tourist destination with tall skyscrapers, colorful commercial billboards, civilian pedestrians and vehicles, representing the peaceful, prosperous face of America presented to foreign visitors. The text on the top right panel reads 'When you visit America'. The bottom left panel shows a group of US army soldiers in full combat gear, carrying firearms, walking down a dusty, run-down street in what appears to be a conflict zone in a foreign country. The text on the bottom right panel reads 'When America visits you'. The meme uses stark contrast to make a satirical point about the difference between America's domestic image for tourists and the impact of its foreign military interventions on other countries.

This is a 4-panel edited political meme that uses the classic Simpsons lawyer business card template, with former US President Donald Trump's real head photoshopped onto the animated Simpsons character body. In the first panel, it shows a business card for "Donald J Trump ESQ." that originally reads "NO NEW WARS", referencing Trump's campaign promise to avoid starting new foreign wars. The second panel shows Trump sitting at a desk preparing to edit the card. The third panel reveals the edited card with a comma added, changing the text to "NO, NEW WARS!", which completely reverses the original meaning: it now signals support for starting new wars instead of opposing them. In the final panel, Trump proudly holds up the edited card, making an ironic joke about Trump's foreign policy record contrasting his campaign promises with his actual actions in office.
