It's not just U.S. voters who have short memories as we see polls showing Donald Trump, the worst president in U.S. history, is leading President Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential race. Voters today have forgotten that Trump tanked the great economy he inherited from President Obama, ignored Covid while tens of thousands of his... Continue Reading →
Hate Cake
President Joe Biden is old. We all know it. Even he knows it and joked about it last Monday on his birthday. Biden posted a photo on Instagram with his cake ablaze and captioned it, "Turns out on your 146th birthday, you run out of space for candles!” Sure, he's old, but he's hip enough...

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 →
Trump Vermin
If you don't see the threat Donald Trump presents to this nation, then you're betraying it. When I showed this cartoon to proofreader Laura today, as I do for every cartoon, she replied that this was more truth than satire and the cartoon made her "queasy," which means it's a good cartoon. Alexandra Petri wrote... Continue Reading →
Grifter Defense Fund
I read a comment today by one of the regular trolls on GoComics that was totally off-subject but howled about President Joe Biden being corrupt. Republicans, conservatives, and MAGAts have mastered messaging. All it takes is to repeat the same lie over and over again. Current polling is proof that it works. Of course, the...

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 →
Youngkin Bumpkin
President Joe Biden has very low approval ratings nationally while political analysts keep saying Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, a Republican, is popular in Virginia. But a poll conducted by the University of Mary Washington Center for Leadership and Media Studies (right down the street from me) last September says in a hypothetical presidential general election...

Trump Temper Tantrum
Donald Trump testified yesterday in the New York civil trial that threatens the existence of his business empire. While legal experts pontificate and speculate on how the outcome of the judge's ruling will be affected by Trump's testimony, the one thing that's clear is Donald Trump is a grifter and a conman. Numbers don't lie,... Continue Reading →
Tangled
It only took a little over four hours for a jury to find FTX cofounder Sam Bankman-Fried guilty on all seven counts of fraud and conspiracy. There were two counts of wire fraud and five counts of conspiracy that ranged from commodities fraud to laundering money. The victims were customers of FTX, lenders to Alameda... Continue Reading →
