What The Clusterfuck?

Today is Day Four of my "Raging Pencils Winter Sloth-O-Thon", a celebration of classic RP 'toons while I reassemble my shattered psyche. This particular 'toon is from July 21, 2010.

---------

On May 7, 2015, Donald Trump tweeted: "I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid."

Today Trump says: "Eat it, suckers! Eat it raw!".

---------

Macy's is shuttering 68 stores. Looks like Trump is responsible for those 10,000 lost jobs.

---------


The GOP isn't interested in the Russian hack of the election, mostly because their party benefitted from it, but now they urgently want to limit or eliminate Congressional investigations. I mean it's the first thing on their list of to-do's.

Hmmm, now what kind of investigations could they be worried about?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

---------

December 23: "Rockettes are confirmed for inauguration."
December 24: "Rockettes will not be required to perform."
December 27: "Rockettes can volunteer to perform."
January 4 : No Rockette has volunteered to perform.

---------

Tickets are still available for the inaugural ball.

Yes, really. And only $250, $350 day of the event.

I could be wrong but I thought Trump was the second coming among his followers. A measly $250 a ticket is less than an NFL playoff game, or a NASCAR race, and comes with free food. How could they possibly resist?

Anyone else sensing a lack of enthusiasm?

Tired of seemingly endless 5-4 clusterfucks? It's time to fix:
The Supreme Court
(1) Dramatically increase the number of judges:
" The is vote 1,263 to 572 against cow marriage."
(2) Require judges to campaign for office:
" Vote for me, 'cause I may or may not approve birth control."
(3) Forced retirement by age 125:
" Beg pardon, your honor, but when your head caved in was that a yes or a no?"
(4) Weed out mental defectives:
" The Earth is 5000 years old."
" Next".
