Michael Ramirez for January 11, 2021

None of those things are at all important!

What was destroyed was the societally held view that you don’t go around attacking American Institutions, attempting to rip the beating heart right out of the chest of the country just because you’d rather believe the ravings of a compulsive lying traitor than face the truth!

So no real loss.

OMG. Reality hads hit. Don’t forget a [p;ice office lost his life. Several deluded followers of the liar died, The fraud in chief caused so much damage it will take some time to repair it. Stay safe. Wear your masks. And most of all stay away from idiots.

I think that it actually, um, “enhanced” isn’t quite right… maybe “enlarged”? Trump’s legacy. It was already a legacy that is worse than I’d ever imagined was possible, and now it’s even more so.

Your guy and your team, Ramirez. Have you finally figured it out?

When reality gets too complicated for some small human brains, the natural defense would be the conspiracy theories.

Confederate republican Nazi’s are the biggest enemy of the USA.

Deathbed conversions. I guess Ramirez is afraid of being lumped in with the rest pf the traitors, despite defending them and promoting their cause for over 4 years.

Given the 10-minute attention span of the average American, I doubt it.

Mr, Ramirez, the Republican Party chose to be destroyed well before this riot – ex. Newt Gingrich’s “Contract on, er, I mean, with America”, Dubya selling out to Evangelicals, the Tea Party movement, and some others… Republicans either fully embracing, or at least appeasing Donald Trump and Trumpism is merely their latest in a long line of self-destructive moves…

Republicans like Trump, Cruz, Gaetz, Nunes, Jim Jordan, Louis Gohmert, are standing on the backs of the poor and the working people. Those republicans don’t care how many suffer, how many die, as long as they are the ones on top.

Every cloud has a silver lining?

…and 147 other traitors in congress. We won’t forget.

Also the reputation of law enforcement being ideologically aligned with MAGA folks.

To quote Mickey ( see “Rocky”), “Bah!, It’s an improvement!”

Keep thinking, Mr. Ramirez, keep thinking.

James 2:24

Trumpanzees could care less about the Republican party. Being tarred with that brush will be the deciding factor in how they vote in the next few years. They’ll consider it a badge of honor.

Let’s look back at all the pro-Trump cartoons this man put out the last four years. Seeing the light now isn’t working, Ramirez- you are as guilty of misleading the public with hate and lies as the Terrorist-in-Chief.

Trump and the terrorist attack on our Democracy is simply the culmination of the path Republicans have been on for decades. Now they seem surprised.

Are you kidding? Most voters don’t realize that Portland is still occupied by rioters.

I think this is two in a row from Mickey where he has come around to reality. Rats leaving a sinking ship come to mind.

Let’s hope this one ages well.

Memo to Republicans: Start asking people what they need. And work on understanding when helping someone is actually helping them, and sometimes it’s better to not help them. Last of all, can’t we just agree demagoguery is terrible regardless of whom is doing it?

Not to MENTION the lives lost! And they’re planning to do it again…I just hope the inauguration will be indoors! We have already had violence encouraged from within, who’s to say it won’t happen again?

Eventually the shock and shame will wear off and Trumpism will be back.

What was destroyed in the riot. The last shred of dignity and relevance you ever possessed Michael. Perhaps you should return to the land of your birth. They perfected the art of the sneak attack.

Not to mention the US already shaky standing in the world and, almost, the very fabric of this nation.

And-oh yeah-5 lives

Hopefully what was destroyed was the Trump backed neo-nazi movement’s chances of overthrowing the constitution and American freedom.

hey mikie…your credibility also would have taken a hit…‘cept you don’t have any anymore…. i’m sure you’ll be an ‘enabler’ again when the political dust settles…

Fflashbang: Will you still be smug if Kurt Schlicter’s novels [where the USA breaks up into ‘Red’ and ‘Blue’ areas] comes true?I liked Trump because I knew his policy ideas of bringing back jobs to the USA by lowering EVERYONE’S taxes would work, [and DID work, since they made the USA competitive.] His policy idea of putting tariffs on countries that blocked USA products with high tariffs DID work.His policy idea of blocking the flow of poor people from South America until all U. S. citizens that wanted a job could get a job, DID work, until the China virus hit! [This also helped to block the flow of evil people like MS 13 and their drugs.] Trump proved that he cared more for poor U.S. citizens living in Appalachia and ghettos of Democrat-run cities than the poor of foreign countries. I would expect the President of Mexico to put his citizens first too!

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. But we’ll see what happens in the 2022 midterms and/or the 2024 presidential election. Will the spectre of Trump have finally dissipated and the GOP nominate more old school Conservatives? Will the MAGATS decide to form their own party (and perhaps nominate Ted Cruz or FL Gov. Jim DeSantis for Prez) in 2024? Who’s to know? In the world of American politics, one year is an eternity.

I don’t recall seeing any banners saying “TREASON” laying on the floor. That would have been too obvious. Could you imagine seeing them taking selfies with it ? Okay, sorry I asked.

Trump; the Pandora’s Box Republicans opened and only now some are wondering “Was this a good idea.” as the blackness engulfs them. Hang in there Mike all the wanna be Tim McVeighs are out there locking and loading and you aided and abetted it. Putin got more out of his investment than he ever imagined he would and you aided and abetted it. Remember your work during the first impeachment when this could all have been checked, when you and the GOP decided that being the “Rule of Law” party was optional if you got to stay in power. And you aided and abetted it. Remember your work on behalf of the Freedom of Speech crowd as social media platforms spread lies and disinformation daily, now that the Treason Weasel in Chief has finally gone “too far”, you may look at the mess and say “Oops.” but you are complicit. You aided and abetted the destruction of the United States.

Good lord, a certain cartoonist may have just had an awakening…let’s hope he doesn’t hit the snooze alarm and go back to sleep

My reaction to this is similar to my reaction to Chris Christie finally saying he should have worn a mask after he got covid. Very nice that you’ve finally figured it out. Better late than never, I guess, but why am I thinking of barn doors and runaway horses?

The same creeps who loved Trump’s Muslim ban are now on the no fly list as terrorists.

Is one of those fire extinguishers the one the Maga’s beat the policeman to death with?

What ever thin thread of hope a few of us had that our Republic was strong enough to survive, and Trumpiism was just an anomaly.

Did anybody notice how neither Twitter nor Facebook blocked Trumb until AFTER Biden was officially voted as the next president? I pose this question: Is that just a coincidence or a corporate CYA move?

Is that all he cares about? How about the rule of law and American Democracy?

Burn Our Homes, poison Our Wells, salt Our Fields, put Trumps head on a pike. Sort of old testament. For many here in the funny papers it would be a good start./s

It should always be known as the Beer Belly Putsch.

Trump’s legacy was NOT destroyed in the riot. The riot IS his legacy. His lasting legacy. The main thing he will be remembered for Michael.

Oh, no Mikie… you don’t get to act like you suddenly care about America or democracy!

If only the full extent of the loss were limited to “Trump’s legacy, the Republican Party, & Cruz’s & Hawley’s 2024 chances (but NOT Romney’s!).”
