Think
of the (White) Children
The exact phrase Trump used at a recent rally, the one featured
in this comic, was “Kamala
Harris lost, which is impossible to believe, 325,000 migrant
children. They’re gone, missing. She allowed them to
be trafficked into our country. They are probably sex trafficked
or dead.”
The audience at that rally was strangely muted when Trump
made this insane allegation. Either they were stunned by
the possibility that it was true or stunned that he'd say
something so obvious stupid.
This lie by Trump was bad enough but there are worse to follow.
Stay alert, folks.

What other kind of blithering nonsense is Trump spreading
out there? Oh, yes, that's right... he wants to restrict
the
First Amendment. The
exact words were: "You burn an American flag you go
to jail for
one
year. Gotta
do it. They say 'Sir, that's unconstitutional.' We'll make
it unconstitutional."
Personally, I think lying so much that your pants metaphorically
burst into flames should be unconstitutional but, for Fox
News, the worst abusers of the First Amendment in the known
universe, it's profitable. So here we are.

Trump went to Arlington National Cemetary today to lay a
ceremonial wreath. It wasn't to commemorate an occasion
or
honor any particular serviceman. It was simply to give Fox
News a slice of video of him doing something that's not suffused
with malice. Engaging in this charade I'm sure took
a whole
team of advisors to convince him to play along.
After all, who needs suckers and losers when you could be
golfing?

Technical Note: I had promised myself that I was going to
draw Trump henceforth as a two-headed candidate but it simply
didn't work within the logic of today's 'toon. Maybe next
time.
