Tom Toles for September 14, 2020

I’m afraid it will be effective on only about 55%=60% of the population, what with about 39% voting the other way, and the obvious way he’s running up toward contesting the results no matter how badly he loses.

My ballot has already been filled out.

Trump cultists need a vaccine against messianic belief in a con man. Stupidity disease will still be raging among the cult after trump is no longer president.

You can’t fix stupid, or create a vaccine to cure it. That’s like Republicans making a total loser presidential.

Pencil lead, don’t fail me now!

The only cure possible.

Only partly.

If you voted for Donald Trump in 2016, you were a SUCKER! If you plan to vote for Donald Trump in 2020, you are a LOSER!

You KNOW that he is planning on contesting the results, claiming fraud, obstructing the count,and trying his DAMNEDEST to stay in office AFTER HE GETS HIS ASS KICKED IN NOVEMBER!!!!

I have to go with Walrus. Thanks for the best remark yet.

”Who’s the Cure For What Ails Us”

The Country is in fragile health,

A poor solution was to bleed off wealth

‘Til not much money’s left to give.

Will this patient have now strength to live?

With appointed fools and quacks in charge,

The favored odds just don’t seem large.

What is a better cure for what ails us?

.

The Management of Health Spa Trump

Has put our Country in a slump,

Infectious virus cases still rising,

Despite some peoples’ false revising.

Deluded MAGAs loudly cheer,

Told that a vaccine’s nearly here.

Is it to be the cure for what ails us?

.

A single shot won’t be sufficient,

Mere medicine would be deficient

To stem the total sickness raging

If the mad dog Trump’s released from caging.

Put down this cur that’s frenzy whipping,

Egregious greed and racist slaver dripping.

A leader change would help to cure what ails us.

.

Is a better man his time bidin’,

No more in rumpus room residin’,

A white knight he? More likely gray,

To ride in joust next Election Day,

And represent a wider spectrum

Than the present walking, talking r—c—m.

It will take a strong cleansing to cure what ails us.

.

I hope his quest is not Quixotic

Against miasmic plots pathologic

That choke us all like deadly smog,

Then suck us down beneath a stinking bog.

Oh, hero, pull us out and run fresh water hose

Upon us all, the slime down History’s drain dispose,

And begin the cure from what now ails us.

Make it so!

Guess who said this:

“And 52 days from now we’re going to win Nevada, and we’re gonna win four more years in the White House. And then after that, we’ll negotiate, right? Because we’re probably — based on the way we were treated — we are probably entitled to another four after that.”

We’re in a sad state with the liberal anti-vaxxers challenging the authority of doctors and scientists with misinformation/disinformation found on social media, and the right-wing radicals having no respect for any truth or authority but their own. Alternating between two ideologies that each, only serve a minority fraction of the electrocute is not putting democracy in a good light … perhaps political parties no longer serve any useful proactive purpose and we need to find a pragmatic way to work together not continually obstruct each other. The lack of trust/respect in each other and worthy authorities is truly frightening.

Vote out every lying murderous criminal anti democracy election rigging republican.

America is so divided and parties dug into their own foxholes.. it is doubtful, if any president can make America Great again. Common sense and voting for your own best interest concepts have been replaced with team loyalty.. State propaganda is a powerful force.

The stress is nonstop and mounting. This shouldn’t even be a close race; it should be a blowout for Biden. That it’s not is what makes life so stressful and maddening. Biden should keep focusing on issues like healthcare, the economy, and climate change. He needn’t point out Trump’s unfitness for office; Trump has done and is doing that himself. All we can do is vote – and lots of deep-breathing exercises.

Still, it’d be just a vaccine. NOT a cure.

Trumpf is great at disaster capitalism, just ask him.

Yes indeedey! The cure for what ails us.
