On August 17, 2017, Plunkert tweeted his cover art for the following week's edition of The New Yorker. The illustration, entitled Blowhard, depicted U.S. president Donald Trump sitting in a sailboat, blowing a sail that was styled as a KKK hood. The artwork, a reaction to Trump's remarks on the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, was widely covered in U.S. news media. Plunkert stated, "President Trump's weak pushback to hate groups – as if he was trying not to alienate them as voters – compelled me to take up my pen."
