There is no video footage of the 1700s so for all we know, the presidential drawings of Jason Heuser could be historically accurate. These epic depictions feature some of the greatest figures in American politics doing some of the most hardcore ass-kicking anyone could imagine.
While Thomas Jefferson is most known for the Declaration of Independence, it's not as well known that he beat some gorillas half-way to hell. But gorillas are nothing compared to the trials that George Washington had to go through; according to Jason Heuser, before the Revolutionary War began, Washington was a zombie hunter complete with pistols and patriotic cameo pants.
The artwork of Jason Heuser puts a hilarious spin on American history.
