Tom Toles for February 14, 2017

The way he draws Trump’s head reminds me of a very old Pogo strip where Nixon was portrayed as a teapot spider: http://www.galerielaqua.de/galerielaqua/IMAGES/Original/original%20art/usa/kelly/KellyPogoDaily3301971.jpg

Those lips. Those eyes. That hair. The lightning is hitting the wrong rock-head.

If he can’t lie, what is left for him to say?Actually he can tell all the other countries how much he doesn’t like them. “Sad”

It’s not a lie if you believe it. Or if you can’t tell the difference. Those may be worse, tho.

WORDS ENDING WITH “…acious” {1.60 limericks}

Trump!! My goodness gracious!

This dude’s a menace. Vexatious.

√ An appetite voracious

for assertions mendacious.

√ Egocentricity spacious.

√ Very tenacious

‘bout notions fallacious.

√ Audacious to degrees {outrageous} outracious.

=========

RECKLESSLY FECKLESS {1.60 limericks}

The Repugnantan Party’s inert

when they ought to be on alert.

Ineffectually feckless

and dangerously reckless,

they don’t against Trumpsters exert

the energy to insist

that Trump must desist

from causing America to hurt.

=====

NO BUYER’S REMORSE? {a rhyme}

Will NEVER they have a “buyer’s remorse”? -

- that they voted to get an arse of a horse

to lead their nation

to abject prostration,

as if in a tragic comedy of farce?

==========

IGNOMINIOUS BANDERSNATCH {a limerick & a PS}

A hideous ignominy!!

We’ve got a big ol’ ninny

as our Head of State,

a terrible fate.

His character’s size is a Mini.

PS:Trump is a Frumious Bandersnatch

with frightening mouth under orange-colored thatch.

===========

this is a jewish theological fairy tale. chump claims to be a christian. the cartoon should have that kind of silliness in it, maybe turning the other cheek. but he’s all ass, so if he turned the other cheek when someone insulted him for being an ass, he would be more of a whirling dervish, kind of like haci bektas or rumi, who are banned here if chump gets his way. this country needs to stop giving tax breaks to religious mountebanks and frauds.

Any relationship between tRump, truth, integrity, literacy, or religion are entirely coincidental.

Trump’s version of the 10 Commandments:

1. Thou shalt have no other gods before ME.

2. Thou shalt make no disparaging cartoons about ME.

3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord your ME in vain.

4. (redacted)

5. (redacted)

6. Thou shalt not vote Democratic.

7. Adultery is reserved for ME and my buddies.

8. Thou shalt submit to theft of all your worldly possessions from ME and my buddies.

9. Thou shalt enthusiastically swallow and pass on every lie from ME and my buddies.

10. I got mine, screw you.

Cerabooge? You must have been in the Oval Office since Trump moved in. All those “commandments” you’ve quoted are on one of the walls, written in large gold letters, in that office!

Trump came down from the mountain and made up his own laws because he wasn’t paying attention.

The incarnation of the seven deadly sins of pride, avarice, lust, greed, gluttony, envy and sloth. You could argue against sloth except that his thinking, if you can even call it that, is lazy.

The Ten Commandments? Obsolete, my friend

On me (your anti-conscience) please depend

Instead of one god only, have a few

If you get lucky some might follow YOU

And honoring thy parents makes no sense

Unless you move back to their residence

And never take the good Lord’s name in vain

Unless, of course, you’re pissed off or in pain

And Sabbath-honoring? So yesterday

In these enlightened times sin every day

And don’t create an evil graven image

Unless thereby you do your rivals damage

Bear no false witness against friend or neighbor

Unless, of course, it lessens your own labor

And stealing in this modern day and age?

Both Wall and Main Street think it’s all the rage

Adultery can be a lovely game

Preventing sex from being “same ol’ same ol’ same”

And coveting thy neighbor’s wife and ass

Can be a treat, but only if the lass

Be well and truly formed, so here’s my rule:

Where wife is lacking, covet only mule

Concerning killing, causing rigor mortis

Only R.J. Reynolds ever rivals Phillip Morris

He thought it said something about witnessing false bears.

That commandment should be on the ‘left’ tablet
