This particular 'toon is from June 22,
2012. It's also among a handfull of my very favorite
'toons.

How to win the 2016 Presidency, in
five simple steps.
(1) Have your conservative pals on the Supreme Court
decide, for no apparent reason, that money is speech.
(2) Barrel into small town, down-ballot races with
sacks of cash in order to flood the media with ads
in favor of the conservative candidate.
(3) Have your Conservative pals on the Supreme Court,
for no apparent reason, gut the Voting Rights Act.
(4) Have the now-conservative state governments
enact stringent voter ID laws, denying up to seven
million Democratic voters, in four strategic states,
the right to vote.
(5) Claim your victory.
Just a reminder: Hillary Clinton won the popular vote
by 2.8 million votes. Trump won the presidency with
70,000
more votes
in Ohio, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
Fuck Trump. Fuck the Republicans.
---------
Prior to President Obama's first inauguration his approval
rating stood at 69%
Trump's approval is at 37%, and dropping.
The majority of Americans know he's a fraud, but they
always knew that. Trump didn't win the election. The
Republican Party stole.
---------
There will come a day when all misinformation is filtered
from our media sources.
And we'll never hear from Republicans ever again.
---------
At his recent "press conference" Trump asked "Are
we living in Nazi Germany?"
No, but we're awful damn close.
---------
I can't find where Trump has ever
denied that there's a Russian sex tape. He has, so
far, only attacked the
messengers. This could means that there probably is
one or more of them out there, and if and when they
show
up
he'll
just say "So? Was it illegal?" and then return
to auctioning off Yellowstone.
---------
If Trump were a Democrat and he was
gifted the presidency by a mob of low-information voters
he would be
impeached
on Day One.
By Democrats, if they had the votes.
Republicans won't do it, though. Trump's their useful
idiot.
---------
It occurs to me that the real reason that
Trump won't sell his businesses is that he can't. He
has too much debt.
Think of it as trying to sell
a house
whose mortgage is under water. (The fact he may not
ever BE president factors in also. Cross your fingers.)
---------
Personal note: Since I started posting
comics Monday-Friday at the beginning of the year,
albeit older ones, the
foot-traffic for this web site
has markedly increased. This is gratifying to the
extent that after I get back to my regular three-comics-a-week
schedule I will continue to post classic RagePence
'toons on a Tuesday-Thursday basis. Seven days a week
of new
material
is a nice dream but this isn't "Garfield" where just
any old gag will do. This dogma stuff is tough.
