"Trump sows random chaos. He then lets alt-right
talking heads and supporters spin that random chaos
into a narrative. He embraces the new narrative that
explains his actions and blames Democrats for the chaos.
Repeat." - Michael de Adder

Rachel Maddow has been a vital part of my informational
infrastructure for well over a decade. When she revealed
on her show tonight that her SO Susan had contracted
a serious case of covid-19 I could not have been more
grieved than had it been one of my own family. Here's
to Susan's rapid and complete recovery.

"Hitler sent 2000 Jews to the ovens every day" sounds
horrible, doesn't it?
Well, t-Rump is consigning 2000 Americans every day
to their deaths by ignoring the covid-19 pandemic.
What is the real difference between the two?
Answer: None. But you knew that.

Lame Duck L'Orange called two Republican Michigan canvassers
and convinced them to withdraw their certification
of the Wayne County vote.
My question is: Did the two canvassers roll on their
backs and rapturously piss themselves over their master's
tacit approval to screw over Detroit's black population
or did they climb onto the roof of their building,
drop their pants, and gleefully moon the whole county
over the possibility of screwing over Detroit's black
population?

Without doubt we need to expand our requirements for
president beyond being at least thirty-five-years old,
being an American citizen and having a pulse. To begin
with, how about at least four years of governmental
experience before any candidate throws their hat in
the ring?
Multiple degrees in economics, world history and law
could only be considered a plus but, considering the
American educational system, only foreigners would
meet that requirement so, you know, that's out.
We definitely need to weed out the closet crazies by
legislating psychiatric tests for narcissism, paranoia
and histrionics. Unfortunately, that would automatically
exclude all Republicans and, as there's only so much
room for commentators on Fox News, we could immediately
expect discrimination lawsuits under the ADA.
At minimum, as a result of the current resident of
the White House, we need to permanently post on all
the entrances to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue signs that
read:
•
No nepotism
•
No coups
•
No Russians
•
No rallies
•
No outside gigs
•
No Tweetin'
•
No lyin'
•
No racism
•
No over-staying your welcome!
And, for good measure, let's require a security deposit
of 4 trillion dollars on the Constitution.

Final Note: If you'll check the Archives you'll see
that this month is only the second month since late
2016 that I've created as many comics as I have so
far. Let's just say I'm a MUCH happier cranktoonist
these days.
