Even Rachell Maddow had trouble introducing him by name in a story on one of her shows. I don’t care how grown up we might think we are, this is just too funny to ignore.
Hummm…let’s see…“The Pecker and the Prick” perhaps? Or “Ask Stormy which Pecker is bigger”?, or maybe “Where is Pecker’s head?”, …yeah,it still needs work….
Grandma would always say, “If you can’t say something nice … then don’t say anything at all!” And before the lib trolls start up, remember that FDR, JFK and WJC all had the same problem…Hey, Jeff, why don’t you dream about drawing something Really Funny – like what would be happening today if HRC had WON!!!
In 19th century slang (mostly British I think) “pecker” meant the heart; the jaunty encouragement, when anticipating dispiriting adversity, “Keep your pecker up!”, would have a confusingly irrelevant meaning nowadays.
@AndrewSihler The way I heard it, the British still say, “Keep your pecker up.” meaning keep a stiff upper lip! In any case, that’s what a Brit said to me while he crushed me in tennis. After I got up from the court, he explained that a pecker was a lip. It made sense since they also say they’re “a bit peckish” when wanting a snack.
@PoppaBob – You really don’t know anything about political cartooning, do you? Are you another one, with Trump, who thinks that satire is “unfair?”
Of course it’s unfair – that’s the whole point! It is sending a message, not being “balanced” or other such nonsense.
And if you had read Danziger over any length of time – a Pulitzer-Price-winning cartoonist, for good reason – you’d know that he ALWAYS goes after the ones in power, regardless of party.
I’ll tell you this: whatever I think of Hillary Clinton, she at least had a clue about international politics rather than being an ignorant tool of the Russians sending rage tweets at 2am who believes the president gets to tell everyone what to do.

Really, you don’t even have to write a joke. Just say the name. Try it.

Change this from “What would Pecker do” to “What would A Pecker do?” It changes the whole thing (Maybe even makes it funny)

What cartoonists do when they’re having (writer)‘s block and there’s a deadline: Go all meta (and try to stay topical).

Wow, excellent work. Very “Saturday Evening Post”. Very Norman Rockwell, appropriate at this time of year.
