Tom Toles for October 16, 2016

Is the kiss of death EVER consensual?

It couldn’t happen to a more deserving pair of cohorts.

He wants to rig things so he can win.

He didn’t even offer the poor ol’ GOP a tic tac…?

He now accuses Hillary of using drugs. Strangely she is not the one sniffling.

Yes, many people are saying this…

This election has been brilliantly planned and executed by the Clintons. Hillary is already selecting her losing opponent for 2020.

Don’t count this clown out. The fact that he’s gotten this far is a tribute to the astronomical dumbing down of the US school system and Bush’s “every child left behind” program. Critical thinking lost out in the public school system a couple of generations ago. We’re in serious trouble now that beliefs trump facts.

Conservative pundit Michael Gerson: Trump has made the party a laughingstock among the young, a toxic brand among minorities, an offense to many women, and a source of worry among U.S. allies and alarm among national security professionals. And this was before Trump pronounced himself unshackled from the style-cramping expectations of his establishment Republican captors. The main use of his newfound freedom has been to attack GOP leaders. House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (Wis.) has authored “bad budgets.” In what way? They were “very, very bad budgets,” Trump elucidated. He “wouldn’t want to be in a foxhole” with Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) — which, presumably, was the point of Trump’s five Vietnam deferments.

Perhaps you should offer your theory on how she convinced him to run for president. And then toss it? Please don’t leave out major details.

It’s the classic Bust Out. You buy a respectable business (on credit, usually), then start spending everything it has, selling everything you can sell, making big orders you can’t pay for and selling them cheap (using the established good will they built up over years), and when you’ve gotten all you can get, you set fire to it and collect the insurance.

I didn’t think it was possible to do it twice to the same concern, but thanks to their long history, there was enough left over after W left it to pull it again. This might be the last time, though.

“Might as well. She will do anything to get it.”

.

I don’t know. Is she the one that called for drug tests? That called the election rigged . That called it an international conspiracy? I believe it’s a desperate Trump holding on to the last straw. And a lot of the rats are leaving the sinking ship.

“If she’s in office, I hope we can start a coup. She should be in prison or shot. That’s how I feel about it,” Dan Bowman, a 50-year-old contractor, said of Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee. “We’re going to have a revolution and take them out of office if that’s what it takes. There’s going to be a lot of bloodshed. But that’s what it’s going to take. . . . I would do whatever I can for my country.”

He then placed a Trump mask on his face and posed for pictures.

I again quote John Scalzi:

“[T]here are very few people in the world whose personal and public conduct has been so aggressively and punitively investigated, and for so long, as Hillary Clinton, and yet she continues to walk among us, a free woman whose errors, when they have been made, are usually of the venal rather than the mortal sort. Which probably means one of two things: Either this decades-long persecution of Hillary Clinton on the part of her enemies is largely motivated for their own political and financial benefit, or that Hillary Clinton is a criminal mastermind so good at evading the forces of justice that HOLY SH*T we should be glad that she’s finally decided to use her EVIL-HONED SKILLS for the FORCES OF GOOD. Better give her eight years, just to make sure.”

And this weekend, Trump’s campaign ties with the head of Ohio’s GOP, because he had the audacity to say he wasn’t sure he could vote for Trump.The rebuttal was a comment about making a decision because a campaign staffer’s feelings got hurt.

“The election is absolutely being rigged by the dishonest and distorted media pushing Crooked Hillary — but also at many polling places — SAD,” paranoid Trump wrote on Twitter on Sunday.

Keith Olberman has listed over 200 reasons why *Trump is ineligible as a president, may, senator or even dog catcher, the man is a walking cesspool of most of the bad things about t5he USA and he has a followers!

I think the NC firebombing was a false flag operation. No TRUE liberal would use a swastika.
