Tom Toles for January 25, 2018

This toon nailed it!

And a resignation or impeachment or coma.

It takes a lot of essential things not getting done and a lot of foolish ideas being pursued , it seems, to convince Trump supporters that you need a well read, well informed, competent person to lead the country … if they can ever be convinced.

{Off the cartoon’s topic:}

BRAIN DRAIN – {limerick}

Of all the officers elective,

Trump is the most defective.

Might an enema drain

that scat from his brain?

Or is there anOther corrective?

=====

{Off the cartoon’s topic:}

OATH, SCHMOATH - {limerick-like rhythms]

Trump fudges in settings both

where Under and Not under oath.

For evidence let’s sample

from this life-style example:

In marriage espoused,

he has often caroused. – - -

- – - Our suspicion’s aroused; -

- Let’s measure his nose’s growth.

{Off the cartoon’s topic:}

IDIOSYNCRACIES – {limerick and coda}

Our ship of state’s in rough seas: -

Idiosyncrasies

of Donald Trump’ll

cause us to crumple

and’ll bring us down to our knees.

… Coda:

The Donald has much of the blame, – he

misgoverns in ways cockamamy.

“Why am I supposed care what America wants?” – Trump

Please register your complaint in the polling booth in November.

I heard this wild theory that the powers that be were going to crash the economy if Hillary won. Since Trump won they will fire up the economy to make a profit until it explodes.

“The Public? The Public be DAMMED!!”

As if we didn’t see THIS coming….http://www.politicususa.com/2018/01/24/wh-lawyer-tries-trump-robert-mueller-interview.html?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&ICID=ref_fark

So the market keeps going up but the dollar’s value keeps going down,Secretary Mnuchin in Davos said, “a weaker dollar is better for trade”…. hmmm, I thought a strong dollar was what we wanted…. Now the dollar is at a three year low and dropping, no end in sight according to our Treasury Secretary……

Davos is to real life what the Illuminati are to New World Order conspiracy theorists.

Trump’s only buddies are Putin and Netanyahu. NOT a good sign. Which, Netanyahu is “Sabra”, but his parents werre Russian migrants, and he was educated in the US. Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Faker.

It will be a Republicans sweep in Nov as wethey pick up 9 to seats in the senate and the house will lose some seats but remain in Rep hands!

Mr. President, you are a remora eel painted orange with man tan and hormonally imbalanced with propecia who needs to find a nice shark to latch on to.

The Republicans couldn’t keep the government open for a whole year. Even Republicans want Trump to stop his tweeting. The American people want the Russia investigation to continue without being tampered with. If Trump colluded with Russia to gain votes or obstructed justice to hide what he has done, he should step down.

I heard that the reason there wasn’t an immediate reversal of the Hawaii bomb notice was because the Governor forgot his Twitter password. Why can’t Trump forget his?

Not to mention the polling data that says that we are currently enduring America’s least liked president in the history of the office.
