Back in December, The New Yorker tried to demonstrate its disdain for President Trump but only ended up embarrassing themselves:
The New Yorker wanted to hurt Trump so much that they covered a fake letter and had to delete this insane post because it was so absurd and misleading pic.twitter.com/VqkhTJI51t

Fast forward to this week, and the latest New Yorker attempt to make a dig at Trump has gotten some attention:

Hey, Team Trump might even approve of that one:
They can’t NOT make him look cool https://t.co/UoQb0ebdCF

The lefty media's efforts to slam and insult Trump almost always backfire.
Why are they making him look cool.

I continue to insist that our media stop making Trump look cooler than he is. https://t.co/7CvN0fJqZ0

I love that you're making him look like even more of a boss.

They're making a point opposite to the one that was no doubt intended:
Making him look like MacArthur is a choice I suppose. Defense of the Philippines, Island Hopping, and overseeing the ultimate victory of the US over Imperial Japan.

Does the New Yorker not understand that History exists? https://t.co/g3kbDRMUvd

Is Trump supposed to be a cross between Patton & MacArthur here? Because both of them ended up as highly popular victors. https://t.co/Nyn7t92WyJ

The New Yorker is clearly hoping that enough TDS sufferers see that cover at the newsstand and will want to shell out $11 for their own copy.
