Bottom Liners by Eric and Bill Teitelbaum for September 20, 2024

FBI statistics shows violent crime is down.

Inflation is falling month to month.

Border crossings are at an 3 year low.

On the other side we have Trump and Vance creating lies about immigrants eating pets and demonizing legal Haitian immigrants proud boys neo Nazis are marching on Springfield bomb threats from overseas are terrorizing school children hospitals are also being hit with bomb threats.

Trump and Vance are putting the lives of good people in danger all for political gain.

Can American stand another 4 years of xenophobic hate and lies ?

stop me if you heard this one. 2 guys walk into a bar ..

That’s what people say, mm-mm …… Shake It Off

this is so funny. if it were print i’d line my bird’s cage with it.

Crime, inflation and the border are three of many items that Democrats are not concerned about.

The policies of the current occupant of the White House seemed to “favor” crime, inflation, and not securing the border. Those are things not to brag about. Those are things that most people are not in favor of.

Yesterday the fed reduced the interest rate for the first time in over 4 years. That means that inflation started to go up over 4 years ago.

Now who was the president 4 years ago?

Democrats are. Under Biden crime is down to new lows, the world-wide inflation was always lower here, and now is negligible, and illegal immigration is back to the levels under Obama after spiking up under tRump.

But Democrats are not done. They are still campaigning against tRump’s multitude of crimes, against tRump’s last recession and a new recession if he gets into office, and against tRump’s failed border promises.

How can right wingers talk about reducing crime with a straight face? The head of their party is a felon who would be in jail if he hadn’t appointed RWNJ judges.

I’m so glad the stable genius stays focused on the core issues…

I once had a fight with a guy who danced around the ring and made noise but in the end had nothing… this cartoon reminds me of that match.

Misinform as you wish, the concept of a plan cat eating disastrous failure of a felon is losing ground daily.

Blame it on Taylor Swift if you must, after all blaming his failures on others is the standard for the orange rapist and racist who collapsed the US economy in 4 years of golfing.

lets see … crime … not really something that a president can do much about … the states are usually responsible for law enforcement and the federal crimes that can be handled by the DC government are addressed by the FBI … isn’t that one of the agencies that someone wanted to eliminate?

inflation … not controlled by the government … the Fed (not part of the government) has only minimal effect on it, it is mostly caused by corporate greed (or is nowadays) … lets see … who is it that the corporate overlords are pushing to be president?

immigration … now that is something that can be controlled by the administration, how we control it is very dependent on the electorate, do you want a compationat process or one that dominates and controls the influx of the inevitable masses of immigrants … traditional policy has usually gone with the latter … look at how the Irish, German, Italian, ect. were treated in the past. One could say that the most compassionate people when it came to the influx of immigrants would have been the First Nations … unfortunately that didn’t end to well for them

if we start deporting immigrants perhaps we should start with the ones that have displaced the original people that were here, also keep in mind that the people that are showing up at our southern border are mostly of native ancestry

Not funny.

Sure the RATE of inflation is going down, but I haven’t seen any prices going down. And they’ve beeing going up at a ridulous rate for several years, much fater than wage increases… and not everyone has gotten wage increases.

This cartoon calls into question Swift’s price gouging and monopolistic business practices.

Surely there are regulations that will take her money for redistribution.

You seem to be trying your best to keep the sheep following the republicans.TryDemocrats only have so much time and money, and are mostly using them to try to inform the MAGAts how immoral, bigoted, dangerous trump is. It’s the best way right now to prove they want what is best for the country, not just the rich dangerous.

I’m curious if Eric and bill are trying to slip political cartoons in to wrong categories.

Taylor who???

Because L’il Donny told his GOP cronies to obstruct any efforts to get problems resolved so that he can get elected, line the pockets of the wealthy and himself directly and indirectly, pardon his crimes and continue doing nothing but golf

Crime – down.

Inflation – down.

Border bill – blocked by Republicans.

Anything else you want to discuss?

Violent crime is down since Covid, and is much lower by immigrants of any type than by native born Americans. Inflation, caused by a number of factors including an international situation that is at least partly the fault of the previous adminstration’s attitude toward Russia is under control enough that the Fed has (late by the standards of some economists) finaly begun to lower the interest rate, and illegal border crossings are at a low in spite of the death of a bipartisan bill that would have gone a long way to correct the situation, at the hands of what’s still called the gop at the direction of number 45. I’m not a fan of any of the political parties, and I’ve watched the Democrats and Republicans switch sides on a lot of issues. What currently counts as Republican is as about as anti-American as possible, which might help account for what the democrats are campaigning on.
