Michael Ramirez for August 28, 2020

Excuse me? Who is the president at this time and for over 3 years?

Yes, the violence, looting and riots exploding in Trump’s America will cause the candidate under whom they are occurring, one Donald J Trump, to go “up in smoke,” no matter how much Trump (and his accomplice, Ramirez) tries to use images of what is actually crashing and burning in Trump’s America to warn us about an imaginary threat of Biden’s America.

Biden’s America? Been there, done that.

Biden was part of the Obama / Biden era — you know, that era that inherited that last dystopian Bushocalypse and transformed it into the Obamabiden era of peace, prosperity and turning economic collapse into economic prosperity; employment losses into employment gains; pandemics into mild inconveniences by following the lead of actual scientists; skyrocketing deficits into plummeting deficits.

Trump (and his accomplice, Ramirez) are counting on Americans to be as memory-challenged as Trump … person, woman, man, camera, TV … they are counting on Adderall® impaired gullible suckers to be scammed by their gaslighting.

I guess since Biden and Harris are both responsible candidates, and Il Douch already said he takes “no responsibility”, it must all be on Biden and Harris instead of the guy whose job it is to run the country.

That’s just Rambo-mirez thinking of putting out a contract on people who want to do GOOD things.

Hmm, where have I seen this before? Oh, right, it was on every conservative cartoon tonight. (no original thought among the bunch)

The violence looting and riots are happening under the ludicrous out of control idiot Trump admin.

Has absolutely nothing to do with Biden and or Harris.It’s orange head who has created all this!

Sorry, Mike, but Biden isn’t the president, yet. That’s Trump who’s in charge (snicker) here.

Last time I checked, it was Trump’s America that was on fire.

Rittenhouse is a very fine murderer. Killingis ok for the right wing Mike but not for the left.

The fact is the Democrats need to confront the violence. Back the protests, come down hard on the violence. The serious protesters also need to come down hard on the violent ones also.

Alas, these rioters are easily played by Trump. He deliberately stokes anger to run a law and order campaign. Like Nixon in 1968 and Hitler in 1933. Peaceful protest requires discipline and leadership that is non-existent today.

Republican brain worms.

Notice how none of the conservative pundits point out that all this racial division and violence is occurring on Trump’s watch?

Just like with the Trump pandemic, he’ll take credit for any successes, but any shortcomings are the fault of others.

Violence, Looting and Riots. The 2020 Republican Party Platform.

That’s “Trump/Pence 2020” on fire.Biden & Harris haven’t been elected YET!

If Biden/Harris were in office, I might agree with you, Michael. But, the last time I looked, I saw Trump/Pence there. Nice try, but it won’t work.

It’s a hard sell.. but you have to give trump and co credit for trying. All the good stuff that happens is due to trumps genius.. the bad stuff.. blame it on what the future president might do.

For decades now Democrats peddle “hope” and Republicans peddle “fear”. Would you rather live with hope and opportunity or live afraid and suspicious?

lying ramirez shifting the blame for what trump has failed to address…

Aren’t Biden and Harris merely candidates? Shouldn’t you be looking at those presently in charge? Oh, I always forget! Those presently in charge take no responsibility! So, what you’re saying is that Biden-Harris would be a terrible thing, so we should vote for four more years of “I take no responsibility?” That doesn’t make sense even in your distorted cosmopolis, Mr. Ramirez.

Perhaps you should write a cartoon with the truth for a change: Its white conservatives, aka trump supporters who are looting, and pillaging and killing. But I bet you are incapable of that.

do you think that the Biden Harris sign with the white light will be the light at the end of this dark, dark tunnel? Vote BLUE!

Interesting…last I checked, Donald Trump is President and the violence, looting and riots are taking place during HIS term.

TDS is causing a lot of people to not see that the people out there rioting are democrats. Republicans are not the ones burning down the buildings and destroying business. The blue cities refused trumps offer of help in stopping the riots. I said stopping the riots NOT the protesting. His offer was refused, so sorry that’s on you the democrats.

Mike if violence like this happened under President Obama you would be setting your own HAIR on fire in outrage…wait….oh…right…..you would be frothing at the mouth in outrage pointing to the current President. But not now. You embrace the partisan hackery. If you want the violence to end you have to be ready to make some changes. Then you have to TREAT OTHERS THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE TREATED

We’ve tried Trump’s hire crony, blame crony, fire crony approach. It is time for a change by having leaders who have demonstrated by a career in public service that they listen to advice and learn from experience.

The “Donald” shares NO blame for any of this? Maybe he is as “perfect” as he and his followers seem to think he is?

I suppose its all Biden’s fault that the basketball players are on strike.

Vicious lying right wingers are totally delusional.

How do conservatives completely overlook the fact that this is happening now, and not under a Democratic administration?

Remind me again, who’s president?President McPussygrabber?President Good people on both sides, both sides.President spany me with a magazine with my picture on the cover my porn star friend

Police shootings (in the back), 17 year old Trump supporters shooting protesters, 180k+ Covid deaths, oh wait…

After almost 4 years of tRump I am surprised there is anything left to burn.

The more the right ignores the cause of the conflagration, the more I think they believe in spontaneous combustion.

Hint: Stop the gratuitous murder and brutality of black people, maybe they won’t have anything to protest. It’s that fricking easy. But NOOOOOO…. in these days of heightened awareness, there’s not even time to mourn the most recent victim before there’s a new one.

It’s eerily analogous to Trump’s presidency. Before we can address one of his crimes, he’s committed three more.

No Mention of Police Violence or Vigilante Shootings.

I hope all of you who are blaming Trump just keep on doing it. Say it loud and proud. Tell everyone you know.

The rest of us watch in horror as Democrat Mayors and Governors denounce police, reject assistance and allow rioters, looters and arsonists to run amok. And you blame Trump.

Please. Stay the course. Justify and excuse the violence. The louder the better.

Mikey, are you f@#king insane? Do you know who is in charge while this is happening? Do you know who the president of the US is? Hint: It is not Biden and Harris. #Ramirez is an idiot.

“It is time to remove Michael Ramirez from GoComics. I have no problems with conservative beliefs or toons, but Mr Ramirez (and Henry Payne for that matter) spews baseless memes completely ignoring the reality of the issues he addresses.

In today’s strip, https://www.gocomics.com/michaelramirez/2020/08/28?ct=v&cti=880528, he pushes the threat of what he believes will happen under a hypothetical Democratic administration. What is so distressing is that he completely ignores the fact that this is happening under the current Republican administration.

Opinion is one thing. Deliberate distortion of the truth is political propaganda. Michael Ramirez left the realm of opinion punditry long ago. He should not be rewarded for it."

Now do one where police shootings, White militia shootings, and vigilante shootings represent the proud GOP, RNC, and Conservative patriotism.

Weren’t Biden & Harris flying those high jacked planes on 9-11 ? Mike ? The plumes of black smoke must be proof enough. Maybe they need more manure at the Rose Garden.

Funny how many people seem to think that the riots aren’t hurting the Dem ticket. Obviously they don’t with committed Dem voters, but maybe not so with independents. Trying to shift the blame to Trump isn’t gonna work with them, as far as I can see, nor is the delusion that the rioters are Trump supporters.

It’s Rump and Pence’s America. It’s happening on their watch. But when you are losing, any lie is worth trying.

So why is Trump and company stoking all this violence? Kellyanne Conway admitted it publicly the other day; “The more chaos and anarchy and vandalism and violence reigns, the better it is for the very clear choice on who’s best on public safety and law and order,” Conway said during an interview on “Fox and Friends.”

Actually these events are occurring on Trump’s watch. Biden has no control over any of it, yet.

Really strange to blame Biden and Harris when the carnage is going on during Trump’s watch.

Politicking 101. Blame the other guy, always!

Trump holding the matches an a can of gasoline

If Biden is elected a plague will ravage the nation, millions will lose their jobs, there will be riots in our cities, vigilantes will gun down innocents. Wait…isn’t that what’s going on now???

Only Democrats Burn, Loot, Murder, so Ramirez has it correct. Since Clueless Joe and Harris the Tramp are Democrats, they are responsible for all of the violence in Democrat cities.

Umm, you do know it’s tRump in charge, right?

I don’t understand this argument. We have riots and violence now. Isn’t Trump still president?

I heard about survey results which showed something like 20% of college age blacks would vote for Trump if the election were held today. His overall approval among black & Hispanics was around 35%.

IF true, and IF it holds and IF those who approve of him turn out to vote in November, Slow Joe will be doddering off into obscurity, senility and retirement.

Why should violence, riots, and looting be associated with Biden and Harris? They have denounced the riots and looting. It’s happening under a Trump presidency. Seriously, how do you think this will get worse if Biden is in office?

Trump’s warnings about Biden’s America are actually about Trump’s current America.
