Strangely, I’m in favor of stopping that criminal cult leader from becoming President “Any way you can.” But I’m also in favor of limiting “any way” to things that are legal. Trump DOES NOT meet all the criteria to become President, so it’s PERFECTLY LEGAL and proper to deny him the opportunity to run. Unless you think it’s better for him to get however many votes and THEN be disqualified, which I think is crazy. Or unless you think we should ignore the constitution, as he apparently does… which I think is worse than crazy.
This is a crock. All the people who testify against him are people he appointed to positions where they could see what he was about.
Trump has never “played fair” in his life. Why would anybody bend over backwards to help such a person gain the power.
There should be an amendment to the Constitution that if a President serves one term and is not re-elected he is not eligible to run for another term later, having been rejected once.
Good grief Ted. Look at who you have agreeing with you.
They don’t even try to deny the negative about Trump. They’re just so tickled that you slam the Democrats.
And I want to know, what Democrats are you talking about? Do you have names? What specific lie/cheat/theft has President Biden himself committed in regards to Trump?
Come on, Ted, even Trump himself would agree with you, that he’s a liar, a cheater, a thief. That’s how he wins and he knows it, and he doesn’t hide it.
I love how Rall points out this hypocrisy and it flies right over the leftists heads. I like cartoonists like him or Ramirez who will take pot shots at anybody.
But it isn’t. It’s all been done within established procedures, by people who were duly elected or appointed to their offices. In neither of the two cases (so far) was it a fiat order by a single individual.
And exactly what “lies” have Mr. Trump’s opponents been telling? I’ll admit I haven’t been following very closely, since it doesn’t matter how I vote (my state will vote roughly 60% for the republican candidate, as always), and because in any case I remember what 2017-2021 were like, so the election rhetoric doesn’t really matter.
Speaking of lying, cheating and stealing, Ted, what did you think about Hunter’s tactic the other day, sitting in on Congress to offer to publicly testify rather than gitting behind closed doors with the crumb bums?:
I agree that Trump needs to be stopped… but turning him into a martyr by cutting him from a ballot won’t stop him… it will only anger and embolden the alt-right.
America is in a dangerous spot. Democracy has been declining over the last few decades, and is at risk of disappearing. Dealing with threats like Trump needs to be done strategically.
Democrats have no need to lie about tRump. tRump admitted he led the insurrection which is the basis used by the Colorado Supreme court to ban him from the ballot per our U.S. Constitutional Law. No tax dollars have been stolen by the D.A. who brought RICO charges against tRump, and tRump must be stopped because he is a clear and present danger to the U.S.
Mr. Rall, no one is lying about Mr. Trump. They do not need to, he provides plenty of ammunition. And the DA stealing money charge is a stretch that borders on libel.
If your Orange Putin Puppet hadn’t planned and incited an insurrection maybe he could be on the ballets. He’s likely to be on far more than someone as anti-American as Orange Traitor should be.
On or off the ballets, no one should want to vote for this wealthy over privileged man that has gotten away with being a criminal for far too long and hurt so many small businesses and working people on the way. I just don’t get it. He’s everything they profess to hate, but have made them their modern day savior. It just doesn’t make sense.
From the Pen of a self described Socialist, Ted speaks truth to the braindead left. On MLK day, I will quote another black leader, By Any Means Necessary to stop Trump. Lying cheating destroying Democracy to defeat what they see as another Hitler. You had better hope you do, if not….Oh Boy oh Boy it’s going to be ugly.
I see this strip as a contradiction to Ted’s previous opinions. Then again, I read his graphic novel The Stringer, in which a the protagonist, a sociopathic narcissist nd war profiteer, ends up with lots of money and the princess. (I guess he was going for “true to life.”
This is pretty vacuous. It isn’t the Democratic Party that got him taken off the ballot; it’s a few states’ secretaries of state, after careful analysis. It has also undergone some degree of judicial review, though I expect there will be more. The 14th Amendment’s provisions are serious, and it needs to be taken seriously. Now, it might feel like a cheat, but it should be addressed as a matter of law, not feelings.
The claim about the RICO case being about stealing tax dollars, meanwhile, sounds absolutely bonkers. Is the intent of the comic to make it sound like the woman on the right is engaging in argument with a crazy person?

Ted, what LIEs exactly are being told about Trump?
Are you claiming there was no insurrection attempt on 1/6?
Are you claiming Trump had nothing to do with it?
.
Maybe you think he didn’t steal top secret/sensitive material?
He didn’t take money from foreign leaders?
He didn’t rape anyone?
.
Who is telling LIEs about Trump and why would they need to?
.
We don’t know for sure about his wearing a diaper. Yet.
We do know he cannot hold a glass of water with one hand.
