    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictionalized_portrayals_of_George_W._Bush

    Bush was the target of satire for most of his presidency. Most fictional depictions of the President in popular media tend to emphasize his drawl and tendency to use incorrect grammar and malapropisms in speeches, as well as his sometimes awkward hand and facial gestures. Bush is often depicted in caricatures with a large nose and ears, and small eyes, giving him a somewhat chimpanzee-like appearance. This is exemplified in a Fruit of the Loom shirt design in which he is compared to the children’s book character Curious George. He is also sometimes drawn in political cartoons as being short in stature.

    Most fictionalized portrayals of George W. Bush have been perceived as negative.
