Bananas Republic

I'm SURRRRE all those voters with middle-eastern ties to Gaza are just deliriously happy they voted for Trump.

Yeah, no second-thoughts there.

---------------

Trump: "I wants to send troops to Gaza, bulldoze it flat, then invest our tax dollars to rebuild it as a modern MAGAlopolis."

Trump: "Puerto Rico? Fuck Puerto Rico."

--------------

Trump: "Hey! Federal employees. Retire early and you'll be well-compensated. Trust me."

Also Trump: "Hey, Palestinians. Let us have Gaza and we'll fix it up and give it right back to you. Trust me."

Why is Elon making copies of our financial information?
So Trump can take your money.
How could Trump take our money?
By instituting the War Powers Act.
Why would he do that?
Because America was attacked by an Islamic country.
Why would we be attacked?
Because Trump threatened to take Gaza.
Won't the CIA warn us of an attack?
Trump is dissolving the CIA.
Well, then we'll organize and protest.
Trump can shut down all communications, too.
Would he really do any of this?
When someone sets up dominos, it's usually to knock them down.

But her emails.

---------------

Wanna bet Trump's people are already digging through the nation's classified docs, searching for something that will fetch a billion or two from his dictator pals?

---------------

Trump wants to get rid of the FBI and the CIA but not the Secret Service. Which makes sense as the CIA and the FBI departments can hinder his perfidy while the Secret Service is in on the con. (See: Fake assassination attempt.)

---------------

Hey, DOGE-ies! If you REALLY want to cut a couple of trillion dollars from the deficit then repeal the 2018 Trump tax cuts.

Easy-peasy.

A Final Note: I rarely bandy the beggar's bowl about but if you enjoy this salty little adjunct of progressive snark then please consider throwing a monthly buck or two towards my Patreon. I don't create these 'toons strictly for the dough (There are no ads, either) but it's nice to find self-satisfaction outside of my near-daily slobbering over the traffic logs.

I spend vast amounts of time keeping abreast of the political news, not to mention the time spent pushing my creaky old pirated copy of Photoshop to its limits, so I can't offer much more from your generosity than eating a bug or offering a hand-drawn "Thank you!" but at least I'm not digging through your financial files.

Excelsior!
