Tom Toles for April 08, 2018

Forget the trade tariffs part, Trump just wants war. He figures there won’t be impeachment proceedings of there are missiles flying overhead, not to mention an excuse to declare martial law.

TRUMP’S NEW CASINO – {rhyme}

We’ll lose our shirts in Trump’s new Casino. -

- Best play the slots in the outskirts of Reno

where the stakes are not so dadgum’ high,

so losses won’t quickly multiply, …

… and perhaps we could win a round of Keno.

{In Trump’s Casino we ain’t got a chance,

nor in ANY Trump-derived circumstance.}

========

Don’t worry, the Rump and his buddies will not be harmed.

OUR NATION’S AGENDA – {rhyme}

Trump sets his own agenda!! -

- We’re ruled by a klutz!!,

by a solipsistic putz!!

His tweets and actions portend a

disastrous decline

of The Donald’s design!! …

… We the Peeps recommend a

system where Referenda

can guide our nation’s direction

when the President’s course needs correction.

=======

Crooked liar Trump wants to bankrupt America so he can sell it off for cheap.

Vulture capitalism.

{Off the cartoon’s topic:}

TRUMP IS MERELY THE SYMBOL – {rhyme and coda}

Trump is this era’s loud-clanging symbol

of a time when Plutocrats wax quite nimble

in getting theirs

while kicking downstairs

so many of us Others, – who fret and tremble

that Donald Trump’s base

is of yuuge gullibility, …

… and with nary a trace

of gentlemen’s nobility; -

- their civility fills less than a small-gauged thimble.

… Coda:

Riddance of Trump will leave us STILL

with above-noted forces which drag us downhill.

==========

I’m beginning to think humanity’s purpose here on earth is to purpose on earth is to endure bad government.

Remember, that CLUELESS MORON managed to BANKRUPT a CASINO!!

Just keep feeding the machine… and it’s not a nickel slot. Trump has NO idea what he is doing.

Don’t believe Trump lost money on a casino, he cooked the books to avoid paying taxes and paying back loans. It’s his business model, rules are for suckers

“Everyone’s a winner, baby, that’s no lie”—-Hot Chocolate.

Maybe the Republicans in Congress from farm states will FINALLY grow a handy crop like spines. Or at LEAST stop stepping in the piles of Trump!

Actually, we’re fairly certain this doesn’t end well.

I hope it is not too late to get him ousted for his Incompetence. It may be too late since he fired all the grown-ups in the white House. The rest are all just followers.
