Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for January 17, 2016

The rest of the US is lucky. They’ll be rid of Trump after the election, if not the primaries. New York City is still stuck with the blowhard, no matter what.

As long as I can throw it away with all the fat.

Too bad we can’t stick the real Trumperfish in a bowl and forget about him/it.

Maybe Cap’n Eddie could throw a shot of buh-bon into that fish tank to calm him down. It might kill the fish, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.

Mr. Fugu was one of the most bizarre characters on the Cartoon Network show Chowder.

Of course, Cartoon Network also ran ads for Brak for President back in the 2000, so they offer equal opportunity portents of doom.

Flush it into the garbage disposal.

Trump vs. Hilary. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

President Bernie Sanders for me. The only one who speaks the truth and will work for us, the 99%.

cap’n eddie is speaking with an accent of a mainiac—someone from maine

Miller aparantly hasn’t heard of ‘The Manchurian Candidate’. The “Muslim” difference is in the trances and post hypnotic suggestions they bring with them. “Love your enemies”, “Love your neighbor as yourself", “Forgive those who persecute you”, although ingrained in American culture, are alien to those who want to "kill the infidel’, who believe anyone who says the Jesus of Mohammed’s teaching (not the same as the Jesus of the Bible) will burn in hell forever. Also, the Quran says you should live peaceably in other lands until you are the majority, then seize power and subjugate all others. The adults may not present any problem their entire life and become good citizens. The problem is when their children go through their identity formation phases and choose not to do or are prohibited from doing the work of growing up, leaving home, and doing the work of choosing a conscious identity. Go read ‘Cycles of Power’ by Pamela Levin and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiWJTPNHwdc. A good mother protects her pups.

As a viewer who is starting to find the Trump-bashing a little contrived and disingenuous, comparatively speaking, I quite like the double irony: Eddie’s advice is also applicable to himself, and indeed (ouch!) to Mr. Miller himself!

“Smiling Pants”…. I love it! Fits her to a Tee! Funny we never hear anything about how well we’ve done with the “Hope Feely” thing we’re all suppose to have….guess 8 years wasn’t enough!

Maybe Mr Miller could show that the Emperor has no clothes…..Nope, that ain’t gonna happen.

I may need to dial up the voltage on my trans-cranial direct current stimulator soon.It is supposed to help with your ability to sort out quickly and find intelligence in things.The web sites recommend nine volts, but I don’t think that is going to be enough.

We’ve got such great choices this election. The venial, extorting crony socialist, or the mysogonistic nationalist. It would be amazing if one candidate actually showed some knowledge of the constitution and in what sense this country is exceptional (in the original sense).

Interestingly enough, by creating today’s strip, Wiley violated his own best advice.

BRILLIANT!!!!

My, my. What a variety of opinions we have here today.Let’s look at the candidates..DEMOCRATS:.Hillary Clinton: Can this Hillary conquer the mountain of problems this country faces??.Bernie Sanders: Who wants to spend a weekend with him?.Martin O’Malley: MOM? I thought you cut the apron strings when you grow up..REPUBLICANS:.Jeb Bush: The third brother?(Nostradamus) Are we just being bushwhacked?.Ben Carson: Carnac the Magnificent please tell us the answer is no..Chris Christie: Sit down and shut up..Ted Cruz: Cruise control without a cancel button..Carly Fiorina: Twice as bankrupt as anyone else except Trump..Jim Gilmore: A lover or a fighter?.Mike Huckabee: Will he look before he leaps?.John Kasich: OK I’m sick..Rand Paul: Will we be apPAULled?.Marco Rubio: Does anyone know how to solve this Rubio Cube?.Rick Santorum: Santorum, Sanitarium? He’s committed or should be..Donald Trump: Playing solitaire and thinks he holds all the cards. .Can I choose “None of the Above”??

Back to the editorial cartoon page Wiley. I can’t stand the blowhard either but? Just saying.

Didn’t Trumbosaurus call Iowans idiots not too long ago?

Congrats Wiley, a great analogy and a good formula for a solution. Don’t know about deep frying?Wonder if IT can be frozen? Of course, the spiny rhetoric can be a danger. Usually only stick to the bias.

I really like the deep fryer idea … for ALL of them. Call them “Crispy Candidates—they stay crunchy even when elected.”

And deep fried foods are better for you than politicians.

Doesn’t a blowfish have a poisonous organ that has to be removed by an expert?I’d love to know how all you trump-eters know he’s honest and will work only for you .Because he said so?Gullible.

But won’t that ruin the fryer?

Today’s Chicago Tribune censored this Non Sequitur and published an entirely different strip. This is at least the second time the Trib has done this to Non Sequitur. It has frequently censored Doonesbury and the late, lamented Bloom County-Opus, etc from the great Berkeley Breatherd.

We got an unknown(that we were warned about) and look what happenned. George Jr. did put us in an impossable situation, so whoever followed would be in deep kim chee, but these last couple of years have shown his true colors. We need an administration that will get us out of these conflicts, we need to expand Delta Force type groups and use them when we are attacked. If terrorists do something in our country and run to another, we should go in and extract them. If the country doesn’t like that, they can hand them over – that easy. We are big enough that we can set policy and punish terrorists and thier supporters without fighting a whole country.

Just wait if Crazy Cruz is elected.

Reading the vitriol in many of these comments is very disheartening. It’s sadly reflective of not just the divisions within our country, but our inability to respect one another and work out solutions to our common problems. And our media-anointed candidates have made it worse, by appealing to the worst on both sides. And the media laughs and says look how popular all this fuss is! Our ratings are great. Come on people – it’s not YOUR country….. it’s ours together.

The Chicago Tribune ran the January 17, 2010 Non Sequitur Sunday strip instead of this one.

And once again the lib cartoonist puts something in someone’s mouth that didn’t start there. Carter said we should limit Muslim immigation during the radical takeover of Iran. Proving an"artist" can bloviate as well as a politician or a billionaire.

Wiley has simply with a single statement, shown that in theory at least, the most damaging thing you can do to Trump, worse than ignore him, is to QUOTE HIM! This has become true for most of the radicals running for office, and not just at the Presidential level.

It’s the mental defect of believing what is put out on the Internet and “blogosphere” that allows so much to be believed in our current culture. Giant pufferfish are far more real than statements regarding Islam, or “liberal” thought, which just means btw actually THINKING about information and dissecting it for reality, coming from the radical right. (Which btw doesn’t often represent being true “Republicans” from the kidnapped party.)

Trump is a little wrong. It’s not Muslims who need to be thrown out of the Country, it’s the quisling fifth columnist like these Leftist cartoonist.

Well she is seriously misinformed and dishonest then.

Woah there! That was GiggleSmith who spouted that false information, not GiantShetlandPony.

Better yet, pop it into Super Bass-O-Matic 76, then pour it in the toilet.

That’s a hoot

And yet, he could be the next president.

“Shameless Puffah Fish” indeed

Another example of a character you should ignore so they’ll go away. I’m surprised you didn’t get that, given today’s comic?

> Eddie’s making the whole thing up. The real Trumperfish pronounces it “yu-u-uge”.

Eddie NEVER makes up his stories. It’s just his accent that got in the way.

> Ask your doctor to increase the dosage.

LOL

Not sure why you quoted someone else’s post as mine? I believe the person your post should be been directed at was GiggleSmith. It’s good to be passionate, but it’s better to be accurate. No worries.

… “Men (people) who are good do not do evil no matter what is written, where ever it is written.”

That is heresy! We must follow the Third Edition of the King James Bible that I have here on my nightstand to the letter to be a good person! You will burn in heck for your words along with all the other non-believers! I cast you out as a pawn of Satan!
