I feel a little bad using "Taxman" from The Beatles for this cartoon. The Beatles were brilliant song writers (except for Ringo) and Trump is only a brilliant con man. It's not the first time Donald Trump had a rough week. The week after the Republican National Convention Trump squandered any momentum he may have... Continue Reading →
Newspaper endorsements don't really help politicians or sway elections. Even endorsements from other politicians don't persuade voters. What they do is give reason to vote, or not to vote, for a particular candidate and shows the direction the person, newspaper, union, organization, etc., wants the country to move toward. A lot of times it's not... Continue Reading →
Donald Trump is a pig and a bore. During the debate Hillary Clinton brought up Trump's derogatory comments toward women in the past. After Alicia Machado won Trump's 1996 Miss Universe pageant Trump engaged in a shaming campaign against her. He was disappointed in her weight gain and referred to her as "Miss Piggy" and...

How bad did Donald Trump do at the first presidential debate against Democrat Hillary Clinton? The Mexican Peso increased in value by two points. In fact, markets world-wide have gone up in reaction over Trump's dismal pouty performance. The entire planet is anticipating a Trump electoral defeat. Before the debate everyone was asking which Donald... Continue Reading →
Texas Senator and former and future presidential candidate Ted Cruz just endorsed Donald Trump. At the Republican convention in Cleveland Cruz drew much condemnation for not endorsing Trump and saying that every voter has to follow their conscience. It turns out,Ted Cruz doesn't have one. Donald Trump has insulted Ted by giving him the clever... Continue Reading →
I'm sure during the first presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump on Monday night that Mrs. Clinton will have two or three instances of making inaccurate statements. I'm equally sure the only truthful statement by Mr. Trump will be when he says he's Donald Trump. I was reading some posts by conservative friends... Continue Reading →
Donald Trump is such a con man he had Don King, a fellow con man, speak at one of his events this week. Anyone who criticizes the Clinton Foundation should stop unless they also include the Trump Foundation in their faux outrage. Conservatives accuse the Clintons of using their foundation to enrich themselves while Trump... Continue Reading →
A violent weekend with mass stabbings in Minnesota and bombings in New York City and New Jersey prompted responses from both presidential candidates. Hillary Clinton held a news conference at an airport and encouraged Americans to go about their lives, don't be deterred by terrorists, don't live in fear, and that we're well prepared to...

I started this cartoon while sitting at a bar. I finished it at home because things got crazy, but that's another story. But the math says Tarantula tequila plus girl-too-young for Clay means Clay doesn't get home until after 5:00 AM. I digress. So before the Tarantula or what's-her-name showed up I started this cartoon... Continue Reading →
Two shocking things happened Thursday night. Donald Trump went on the Jimmy Fallon Show (Late Night? Late Show? Tonight Show? I don't watch that stuff) and he let Jimmy mess up his hair. Seriously. Afterward he looked like one of those hideous troll dolls but he still let someone mess up his hair. He did... Continue Reading →
