President Donald Trump has insisted the US government is running like a "fine-tuned machine".

He was reacting to claims of "chaos" in the White House after his controversial travel ban was blocked by some of America's top courts.

One of his advisers also resigned over claims he lied to the vice-president.

The president's reaction has inspired some inventive interpretations of what his "fine-tuned machine" might look like.

And whatever your political views, some of them are pretty funny.

This one involves a washing machine.
