British satirical magazine Private Eye put not one, not two, not three, but FOUR, mocking spins on the image of Donald Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and CIA Director John Ratcliffe in a makeshift situation room at the president’s luxury Mar-a-Lago resort during the start of US-Israeli military operations against Iran this weekend.

The publication reproduced the image below, with speech bubbles coming out of the trio, four times, under the headline “Trump attacks Iran: How Operation Epic Fury unfolded.”

In one image, Ratcliffe is shown asking: “Is the Supreme Leader dead?” And Rubio responds: “No, Trump always looks like that.”

In another, Ratcliffe boasts of “Mission Accomplished,” to which Trump, wearing a white cap that says “USA,” responds: “Yes, I killed the Epstein story.”

A third image shows Ratcliffe asking: “What happens next?” Trump says: “Popular revolt and regime change,” and Rubio responds: “In the United States.”

The final image shows Ratcliffe asking Trump: “Why have you started this war?”

Trump responds: “So we can stop him.” Rubio responds: “I’ll call the Nobel committee.”

The cover was hailed by Instagram commenters as “Absolutely spot on”, “brilliant” and “so true”.

The magazine has criticized Trump countless times before, previously criticizing him for his inability to negotiate an end to the Russian invasion of Ukraine (despite promising to do so in his 2024 campaign) and trolling him with a sarcastic message upon his return to the White House.
