This is a three-part series of short satirical video cartoons called “Trump Bites” by Bill Plympton, a two-time Oscar nominated animator.

In Episode Three of “Trump Bites” above, Trump loves washing his hands — of germs, responsibility and his critics. Does his primal fear of germs have anything to do with his exaggerated fear of certain foreign bodies?

Trump Bites is a series of three short video cartoons that combine real Donald Trump audio clips with hand-drawn fantasy animations by Mr. Plympton. The video cartoons riff on Trump’s absurd utterances to illustrate the president’s tumultuous inner life of paranoia, narcissism and xenophobia.

Known for his outrageous sense of humor, Mr. Plympton is an iconoclastic animator who creates irreverent, unsettling and at times disturbing cartoons. He is best known for animated shorts such as “How to Kiss” and “Guard Dog,” and for his contributions to MTV’s “Liquid Television” in the early 1990s. Over the decades, his animations were largely apolitical — until now. The Trump presidency inspired him to extend his provocative art to political satire.
