Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for February 12, 2017

That’s setting a low bar for the Russian puppet in the White House.

For his supporters, the bar couldn’t be lower.

You left out insulting our staunch ally Australia. For no reason at all he was insulting the the PM.

THAT IS CONFIDENCE. DRAWING A COMIC CONTAINING A TIME-AND-FUTURE-EVENTS-DEPENDENT JOKE A FULL MONTH IN ADVANCE, BELIEVING THAT THE JOKE WILL WORK.

There certainly has been a record number of problems caused by this sociopath, both domestic and international, for someone inaugurated only 23 days ago.

The bias is thick today…

And then there are the internal national incidents: Muslim ban, Women’s March, rebooting Standing Rock, the ICE raids, the upcoming Science March…

The odds drop considerably for the next 24 days.

Nothing to worry about. If he does cause an incident, the GOP will leap into action, find someone back in history who did something comparable, and point to that as excusing whatever their overripe brat king and his minions are doing. This matters to them far more than putting things on a safe course.

The ‘unfit to be president’ comments are proven every time he opens his mouth or tweets.

I find it hard to believe that we still hear comments from trumpsters saying that trump “didn’t want to enter politics for the money.” Ha! Of course, he constantly makes decisions that are solely made to line his own pockets.

The conflict of interests situation with trump is out of control. Of course, nothing will be done because the GOP is in the majority. It is sad to think that there aren’t enough GOP folks who have any moral courage with trump. They continue to pick party over country.

THIS IS “FAKE COMIC”. SAD. LOSER COMIC. BATMAN IS YUGE AND GREAT COMIC. PUTIN AND TRUMP BE LIKE BATMAN AND ROBIN.

Leftwing dopery at its finest.

I’m still amazed at the number of wonderful self-congratulating Americans that want President Trump to fail, that they won’t even allow him to do the job on his own. They want to take credit for helping him be the moral and ethical failures they attained on their own without his help.

Tomorrow it’s Canada’s turn.

The problem is the Global War on Terror is idiotic on its surface. A war against a military tactic every other country engages in? It is also used to buffalo us and murder people over seas thereby building up more dissent and the few who wish to strike back. A slew of Davids against the Leviathan Goliath that is us. Republics don’t need enemies, they don’t want them. Empires on the other hand do want enemies, the more there are the more and larger military the Empire has its excuse to spend even more of the GDP on it. That is us.

For Trump supporters, let’s try a thought experiment. Consider any other celebrity in the world not named Donald Trump (it doesn’t matter which one). Now picture this celebrity constantly and compulsively tweeting at 2, 3, and 4 in the morning, whining, pouting, and threatening about how he or she is treated by talk shows, comedians, or comic strips. Would you consider that to be abnormal? Of course you would. Then why in God’s name isn’t it abnormal when Trump does it?

Speaking of Trump, he got his first major dose of YUGE celebrity by appearing on a dopey little game show that featured washed-up celebrities. The fact is, “Hollywood Squares” pioneered that concept decades ago. The fact is, Peter Marshall would’ve made a much better president than Trump. Probably any of the celebrities who appeared on the show would’ve!

“The REAL funny part is where you guys STILL haven’t figured out why you lost.”

It was because enough of the poorly educated believe that Obama was born in Kenya.

And OBAMA IS COMING TO TAKE YOUR GUNS!

Nice try, Gary. At least you were optimistic, if not entirely accurate. POINTS for trying!

Well, it’s early days yet. Always time for Trump to bollix it up at any time.

Actually, narcissists are fairly predictable. It seemed obvious an elderly multimillionaire was not going to change. He will continue to bump up against reality though, in terms of citizens making their opinions known and judges who also are supposed to play a role. Media has to continue to do their job. Legislators must do their job. Even republicans.

Wow. Reading these comments, I despair of ever having another Democrat President. The simple fact is that the Dems lost because they nominated the only American citizen who was a worse candidate than DJT.

That’s all there is to it.

Challenge: name anyone else who would have lost that election to DJT. Remember: she had a much better “ground game” and lots more money, and still lost.

All this whining up and down the page about other “real” causes demonstrates clearly that no-one really “gets” it: the break with reality is complete, and if they represent the party that nominated HRC, all we can do from now on is pray the Repubs don’t nominate anyone too heinous in the future. (Maybe they can learn.)

Actually, HRC won the popular vote. I don’t think Bernie would have won since the term socialist is not a term that many in the rust belt or Bible Belt could have bought into, let’s be honest. I like many things Bernie had to say but he did not have a chance. The fact that the FBI was reticent to look into the shenanigans of the Russians remains very interesting and extremely concerning with the current administration.

Kind of interesting that Trump supporters feel Hillary supporters “lost.” The biggest losers are anyone who would stoop so low to support a sociopathic, disability mocking, child trafficking, pedophile for president.

@RASCZAK

People who say Obama was a bad president not only never cracked a history book but suffer from short term memory loss. The country was a complete mess when he entered office. 800k jobs were being lost a month. Major industries were on the verge of collapse. These people also have never heard of Buchanan or Harding or Hoover. Have no idea what this country went through from 1973-75; not just the Watergate crisis but also the economic mess.

Just because you use CAPS doesn’t make it TRUE.

Only MORONS believe Trump is a sociopath. Only MORONS believe traitor Hillary should have won."

===One of the prominent characteristics of so-called ‘conservatives’ is that they believe that name calling is a valid argument.

Like calling Senator Warren ‘Pocahontas’ means she is wrong that the banks should have been prosecuted and wrong about Trump being thin-skinned.
