Moreover here’s who wrote it:

What does the bison have to do with it?
I am glad you asked.
Excerpts: About the bison
One of the motorcyclists in South Dakota for the super spreader jamboree in Sturgis got thrashed by a mother bison.
.
The woman’s injuries were deemed not serious by local authorities, but, as the video shows, she took a beating so bad that it shook her right out of her Levi’s.
.
The bruised biker’s offense was simple: Getting too close to the bison’s nursing calf.
.
And the woman was just one of many bikers who were trying to mingle with the wild animal herd. We’ll let you draw your own conclusions about the kind of intellects who would both attend a massive rally with people from every corner of the country during a pandemic and get in the personal space of a nursing mother who weighs a half ton and can be as tall as five feet at the withers.
.
Conclusion
.
Voters do not like desperation for power. What they like even less is desperation to maintain it. As Trump fumes and rages and threatens he does not much seem like a man with the light touch on the reins that voters prefer.
.
Biden, who has devoted himself for decades to the goal of acquiring the ultimate political power in our system, manages to seem almost apologetic about it. His posture of reluctant aspirant may not gibe with his real record, but he knows it is one that voters want to see. Biden may be carrying it too far for the sake of avoiding typically terrible live interactions with reporters, but he certainly seems convincing as a reluctant candidate.
.
The more desperate Trump seems to maintain power, the more likely he is to end up with a bison horn where he won’t like it.
Trump doesn’t like Fox News anymore because, boohoo, they are reporting his standing in the polls accurately. He says they are politically correct, which can be translated as they are being politically accurate, at least in reporting poll results.
Go figure! The Fox News politics editor just evoked the image to Trump being gored by a bison horn where the sun don’t shine.
.
Expanding the analogy, one could note that bothering a mother and her calf can have disastrous consequences, a message for the president who has done more for women than just about any president in HISTORY! Just ask him.

My tweet in to both Trump and Stormy Daniels with two DonkeyHotey caricatures combined, one of Trump and the other of Stormy Daniels:
