Ted Rall for November 02, 2016
Transcript:
Woman: Election day! Let's go stop Trump! Man: Polls say Hillary will win. Woman: By a wide margin. Man: Exactly. She doesn't need our votes. Woman: But I everyone thinks the same thing... Man: She'll lose! But then our votes still won't be enough. Woman: But what if the polls are wrong? Man: Them Trump will win anyway. Woman: No way Hillary spends this much time thinking about us. Man: Pickle?
For God’s sake, Ted, I KNOW you hate Hillary. We ALL know you hate Hillary. IF she gets elected, you’ll have four years to stomp all over her. But you know doggoned well that there are only two real choices in this election, and the reasons for that have nothing to do with either candidate as such. Unless you are one of those people who wants to just burn it all down, would you mind at least showing a little</> nuance? And I DON’T mean “toning it down” or not attacking the candidates. Here’s why:
I just went through all the cartoons posted here from September 1 on.
7 Toons having nothing to do with either candidate
4 Toons whacking on both candidates
4 Toons primarily whacking on Donald Trump
12 Toons primarily whacking on Hillary Clinton (one of which essentially supported Trump’s claims of the election being rigged without any irony, which I take as supporting the stance that Hillary has rigged things)
I will note that in October to date, it’s ONLY two-to-one anti-Hillary versus anti-Trump instead of three-to-one.
What’s the deal, Ted?
