I went out with a couple friends last night with one of them visiting from out of town. Rob is actually one of my few friends in the real world who follows my work. I had just posted this cartoon when Rob messaged that he and Chris were heading to a stinky smoky bar and... Continue Reading →
History With Nikki
Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley was asked at a town hall event in New Hampshire Wednesday night, "What was the cause of the United States Civil War?". Haley replied, replied, "Well, don’t come with an easy question." Except it is an easy question with an easy answer. Instead of giving the easy answer, Haley replied... Continue Reading →
Art of the Mein Kampf
My friend Mike Peterson wrote about Godwin's Law in today's Comic Strip of the Day, which is the adage that the longer an argument last on the internet, the likelihood increases that Hitler or Nazis will be invoked. Usually when someone is compared to Hitler, it's a cheap attack because the accuser isn't intelligent enough... Continue Reading →

Bad Santa
The Atlantic Magazine has devoted its latest edition to sounding the alarm of a second Trump administration (sic), saying it'll be much worse than his first. This should be taken seriously because if you were alive between 2017 and 2021, then you should be able to recall just how truly horrible and terrifying that first... Continue Reading →
Sympathy For The Devil
What a drag it is getting old. Many years ago when I was much younger, I was a bit of a stinker. OK, I still am, but back then, I made fun of old people for the simple act of getting old. I used to tease one of my editors, Rupert, back when I worked... Continue Reading →
Final Turkey Destination
So one of the counterarguments (a whatabout) from a MAGAt over on GoComics to my last cartoon on the recent scary polls is, that President Joe Biden couldn't tell the difference between Britney Spears and Taylor Swift. Apparently, that was a story in right-wing goon circles. Headline: Old man can't tell the difference between two... Continue Reading →
Cognizant Candidate
From the Department of You Gotta Be Fucking Kidding Me, a new Yahoo/YouGov poll says voters find Trump more physically and mentally competent than President Biden. What this poll shows is that gaslighting works. Now, don't give me the business about how polls can't be trusted because, in most scenarios, election results fall within the... Continue Reading →
Take Me With You
A disturbing new poll from The New York Times and Sienna College has Donald Trump ahead of President Joe Biden in five of six swing states that will decide the 2024 presidential election. The good news for President Biden is that this is early and there's still a year to go. The bad news for... Continue Reading →
Bye, Fly
I'd say Mike Pence's supporters dropped off like flies, except he never his campaign never had many supporters. Did the guy ever poll higher than two percentage points? He probably attracted more flies than supporters. Pence was talking to groups of potential voters in pizza parlors and drug stores, usually in groups of less than... Continue Reading →
