tRump has been ranting about Antifa anarchists and that “the United States of America will be designating ANTIFA as a Terrorist Organization”. It boggles the mind to think that Anti-fascism is now a bad thing.
Seriously? You think Trump’s “mental faculties” have been up to the job? At the very least, Biden would hire and work with competent, intelligent educated people. He isn’t threatened by people who know more than he does on a particular topic.
President Trump’s political war against Anthony Fauci, including his operatives dishing opposition research-style attacks against one of America’s most respected and admired medical authorities, is one of the most destructive and self-destructive acts in presidential history.
Trump’s retweeting the ignorant words of a former game show host, who accused physicians, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Democrats of lying to create a false crisis about the COVID-19 virus, left the president behaving like a failed leader combining tragedy with farce.
If the COVID-19 virus could vote, the virus would endorse the reelection of Donald Trump, who takes repeated actions that help the virus infect and kill more Americans, and who works to destroy the actions that would defeat the virus.
✄
By dramatic contrast to Trump, former Vice President Joe Biden is a man of decency, good will and experience who believes in facts, believes in truth, believes in science, and believes that America should unite like a mighty power to defeat the virus.
By dramatic contrast to Trump, Fauci is a fervent patriot who strongly believes that every American can play a vital role as citizen patriots by taking personal action that would defeat COVID-19 by wearing masks and maintaining a social distance, while our government should go all-out to provide far more testing and contact tracing for those who are infected.
Biden and Fauci understand that the only way to keep our economy open and stronger is to defeat, not ignore, COVID-19.
This tack of the Republicans may be good, because it’s likely to backfire. In 1984, there was a lot of talk about Reagan’s mental fitness. But because of that, all he had to do was not seem senile when he debated Mondale.
There will be a debate. Biden will be fine, because there’s nothing wrong with him. And that, all by itself, is likely to give him a big boost.
I really hope he laughs right in Donald Trump’s face, like he did to Paul Ryan.
That Thing In The White House acted like a demented ape with tertiary syphilis before he was even elected and you dim bulbs STILL managed to foist him on the rest of us. All of you “conservative” nuts can take SEVERAL seats.
As the LP Presidential candidate Jo Jorgensen is a “Psychologist, Senior lecturer at Clemson University, proud mother and grandmother, hockey player.” (see her Twitter Bio https://twitter.com/Jorgensen4POTUS) I’d say Scott will have her as a hockey playing animal when she starts to appear in the strip. An ice skating bear perhaps?
Libertarian party presidential candidate, Jo Jorgensen, has appeared on a podcast associated with the anti-government “boogaloo” movement just days after an adherent of the movement was arrested for allegedly murdering two law enforcement officers.
One of the other people on the podcast also runs a Facebook page which is strewn with memes that reference insurrectionary violence, and appear to invoke white nationalist and neo-Nazi imagery and subject matter.
✄
On the Roads to Liberty podcast, Jorgensen was quizzed on her policy proposals by a group of men who were introduced as “some of the head admins for some of the most influential pages in the so-called boogaloo movement”.
The word “boogaloo” refers to the prospect of a “second civil war” in the US by playing off a reference to a movie sequel, Breakin’ 2: Electric boogaloo.
For some in the anti-government boogaloo movement, any such civil conflict carries the possibility of an insurrection against an overbearing state and the law enforcement officers who serve it, particularly agencies tasked with enforcing restrictions on gun rights.
But others who use the term conceive of the boogaloo as a race war.
Scott breathed a breath of hope into this strip Monday and Tuesday when he suggested that conservatives (Carmen) might be better off voting for Biden than Trump – a view that I have seen circulating around at least some Republican circles. After all, most of the damage Trump has done has been to the Republican Party, having removed all principle – as well as exposing those with populist nationalist roots and Confederate sympathies. He’s painted the party with a rather ugly image that will take very long to heal.
And yet, here we are today, Scott now joining the chorus of other so-called conservatives, once again saying,
No matter how bad Trump is, anybody else is worserest!
Scott Stantis (or is it Eric Alee) – you’ve lost me on this one.
Artistic license: Hasn’t Scott (Eric) changed animals on us? I think before, didn’t he use a donkey or something? I’d look it up, but as of today, I don’t see why I should bother.
Mr. Stantis: Anti-everyone. All the time. Maybe, just maybe Ronnie Reagan was the exception, especially when he started going downhill in the second term.
When Vice President Biden makes mistakes when speaking, he usually corrects himself. He uses many words in their proper context and knows what they mean. trump – just review that Rose Garden rally speech. I’ll take Biden any day and cannot wait until trump is escorted from our WH to his jail cell. Disagree? That’s OK. I’m tired of a POTUS who is destroying America and now while he ignores the pandemic, destroys Americans.
In Biden’s acceptance speech, he seemed to be fully alert and aware of the responsibility of the president to work for all of the nation, not just himself or those who voted for him. He sees the need to change the Executive Branch focus from a dark self-serving downward spiral to an shared upward trek toward truth and light.
In this election, logically, the next president will be one of two persons. We need to stop feeling sorry for ourselves that there is no perfect candidate and decide which of the two is best for the wellbeing of the nation. While anyone has a right to vote for a third party candidate, in THIS election, that choice is the equivalent of choosing not to vote; it will do no good for anyone but oneself.

Don’t do it! It’s clear that either BIden or tRump will win, so a third-party vote is like voting for tRump, or not voting at all.
