Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 12, 2017

Sainthood might be considered if Rat is meets the first requirement.

Considering the people who now get Academy Awards, Rat might well get an Oscar someday; after all, he has no looks or talent.

Ahh, that old standby: it’s someone ELSE’S fault.

(Cue dozens of people explaining who’s to REALLY blame.)

Hey, Rat, don’t forget that you didn’t receive an invitation to the Super Bowl because you’re too busy making fun of the NFL on Twitter for being anti-American… duh. Oh, and lest I forget, you still haven’t received a “Person of the Year” award from Time Magazine because you’re too busy tweeting about “Crooked Goat’s missing emails” or “Dumb Pig wiretapping my home.”

at least Rat didn’t win the Nobel Prize in peace

Rat hasn’t won an Emmy either, just like his alter ego.

Given Rat got elected President, why didn’t he just award a Medal of Freedom to himself?

Some people want Rat to meet the qualification for sainthood … at least the part of being gone for five years.

So sad Rat, that you and Hillary have one thing in common, OK maybe 2 things, besides blaming everyone else for your failures, the world (Little peeps) hasn’t recognized your genius. You’re in good company.

I think I can answer that for you: you’re a rat.

You need to be written out of this strip, Rat.

Spoken like a true Republican – with a whine

Try again,and again…

But you and Pastis can still get a Reuben. If you go to a deli, that is.

Rat should look at the bright side, at least he is not in prison, yet.

Rat’s more likely to win a Razzie or a Darwin Award.

That you’re a complete jerk.

No Kennedy Center Honors for you either.

Look on the bright side, Rat. You have a perfect record.

I didn’t win any of those either, Rat! Let’s form an alliance!

Rat, your comic strip won 3 National Cartoonists Society’s Division Awards for Best Newspaper Comic Strip. Be glad about that!
