Hilarious, but can you help with the context?😁

This looks like when he was saying Zelensky should say thank you, to his face. And has been doctored to look like the beginning stages of Violet's transformation after chewing the experimental gum in the movie version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with Gene Wilder.

On a tour of Mr Wonka's chocolate factory, a little girl is shown Wonka's experimental gum and has some. It turns her purple and makes her swell like a blueberry. Vance did the same thing.

Contextually speaking, this meme would have been more apt to use on Muskrat as he has been having quite the ketamine problem lately....and instead of answering questions about it from the New York Times, he tried to pull a Trump and insulted the reporter for even asking it.

I'm not sure that there is any, lol. I think someone just wanted to make a funny pic.
