WOOHOOOO I was right

There are a lot of people out there who want the worst for the world (war, famine, depression etc…) for no other reason than to walk up to a friend and say “I told you so”.
Because the politician that they didn’t vote for wins, they then spend the next few years wishing their own country goes down the drain so that they can be right about that argument they had with someone 4 years ago. Those people are dangerous and also ridiculous.

The painting is an appropriation of an old American illustrator. I can’t remember who but when I do I’ll update the comment and credit.
