Mike Luckovich for February 14, 2021

But in our present scenario, “Indy” won’t be a winner!!

The rate at which the “Republicans” [party of Trump/Q] are dismantling the union that the Republicans [party of Lincoln] put together at an ever-increasing rate … run, Uncle Sam, run!

No! Stand your ground. This is not the Party of Abe Lincoln. This is a party of hate and ignorance and will not survive.

If Trump causes the GOP to fracture and there is finally a viable third party in this country, then it will be ONE good thing Trump caused.

The Trumpists have so far removed one of “them.” They are planning to finish the gelding of Democracy in the near future.

This could also serve as a pop culture reference to The Prisoner. Number 6 does escape. Eventually.

This is absolutely something to worry about: quasi-fascism has been slowly creeping into our politics and lives. It has to be stopped now.

Trump remains the unapologetic lord of d bags.

Want the country back with a bigger majority? Write to Trump and the 43 traitors who placed themselves above country. Tell them how much you miss MAGA and that beloved #45 must be on the campaign trail in 2022 and 2024. Nobody else can replace him.

We will not accept an imitation in the form of a Cruz, Hawley or Rubio. We must save our country from the socialists who will take our guns and open the borders to the dark anti-Christian hoards. When they ask for donations send a dollar and tell them that your 10% always goes to the church for Jesus.

The republikans have guaranteed the return of ‘’American Fascism’’. Coming soon to an election near you.

Uncle Sam is already hobbled with only one leg.. and now this. Doomed I tell you America is doomed.

I kinda miss trumps tweets though.. and can only imagine his gloating and how his army came through.

I kept looking at the toon and eventually figured it out but do not understand using the Indiana Jones reference because it was from Raiders of the Lost Ark. I thought Temple of Doom for the name or The Last Crusade with the Nazis would make more sense.

amazing how predictable stupid is.

should probably be remembered that Trump appealed to the non-college educated white person . . .once a constituent of the Democratic party. His presence might be disruptive to the Democrats then too.

Rage against the dying of the light. You may quote me.

RIDDLE ME THIS: If T Rump believes this country is ‘beautiful & wonderful’, why then did he try to have it torn down in flames and violence and death?Never mind – that was rhetorical. The answer is that he doesn’t believe in America, certainly not the ‘democracy’ part, the part he attempted to have eviscerated. This piece of human filth, disgusting garbage, and redolent excrement, must NEVER be allowed to play a part in America’s future again, and it is up to voters to see to it. And, incidentally, the same goes for 43 Republican Senators and SCADS of Republican Congressmen. These are people without honor, without decency – the worst kind of lying, hypocritical oath-breakers and traitors, who put party ahead of country, power ahead of duty, and who value any lies with which they can confuse the public, putting that before their Constitution and the principles that form the basis of our America. Simply put, T Rump has NEVER wanted to “Make America Great Again”…he’s never sought to make anything great, other than himself…

And so he could never be a bigger failure.

Remember – Tiny prevailed in another vote with less than a majority – winning, winning bigly.

Trump was right. He didn’t shoot anybody on 5th Avenue. He just incited a riot and caused the death of a Capitol Police Officer. And nobody cared, after all. But they gave a surviving officer a medal. That’s really Making America Great Again, isn’t it? /s

Cue ball in the side pocket, the republican game is over.

Monty just cannot get anything right. Not who wanted hundreds of witnesses….

Remember OJ. Not guilty does not mean innocent.

You will have to explain to trump followers who Lincoln was and what he ever did for our country. A sad commentary on our educational system.

The vicious lying snowball of Trumpism will collapse as soon as the heat is on it.

And all the heat in the political world will be focused on making Trump pay for his crimes against the USA.

Civil suits and criminal prosecutions shall now commence. The line forms on the left.

When will Cool Joe get those “audited” tax filings to the public? That’s one big boulder that the Fat Orange Clown is trying to avoid as if he is waddling down a walking ramp.

This party will survive and flourish as long as there is race hatred, intolerance for people who are not white, or resentment of immigrants. We need immigrants to keep our economy growing, to supply workers for those jobs whites will not take, and the brains and skills educated immigrants bring with them. Have you been paying attention to who is taking care of our aging population? You should if you intend to live beyond 65.

Trumpism does seem like it’s snowballing, but snowballs melt when the heat is on.

I thot the same thing on seeing this cartoon that I did upon viewing the original in Raiders of the Lost Ark: “The early bird may get the worm, but the 2nd mouse gets the cheese.” If you actually use a one-shot weapon, you’re defenseless thereafter.

And I thot this was Uncle Sam running while being inside a Trump bubble.

OK, as long as we’re dealing with Raiders of the Lost Ark takeoffs, I gotta share this one:

Objective reality time: Donald Trump would not have given the tenth part of a damn if the mob of traitors he incited had actually murdered Mike Pence—because Mike Pence is not Donald Trump. Donald Trump would not have given the tenth part of a damn if his mob of traitors had murdered a slew of members of Congress, even some Republicans, even the ones like Lindsey Graham and Kevin McCarthy who most assiduously kiss his ass, or his fellow seditionists Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley—because they are not Donald Trump. Trump would not have given the tenth part of a damn if 20 MILLION Americans had died of Covid (even if all of them were so white that they glowed in the dark) if that ensured his re-election, because—aw, you guessed it. How the hell can people NOT know this about Traitor Trump?

Of course, the House impeachment managers could’ve (and should’ve!) stuck to their principals and told Trump’s crooks (lawyers, but the same thing in Trump’s case): “Fine, let’s stretch the trial out, you can call plenty of witnesses and we’ll call plenty of witnesses.” It wouldn’t have changed the minds of most Republican Senators but it might have made a huge (or at least noticeable) difference in the minds of the American public. And maybe common sense would’ve been absorbed by at least some Trump cultists by osmosis. But, no, everybody was in a hell-fire hurry to end the “trial” almost before it began. What, are Senators the only people—hell, the only MAMMALS—who can’t multi-task?

That’s actually Rover, from The Prisoner, and Sam is wishing that instead of a whip he’d brought a big pin.

It’s INDIANA TRUMP and the TEMPLE OF DOOM… See the Leather Jacket and the bull whip? It represents the destruction of the sacred trust of the former GOP. BOTH parties were seen as temples, sacred trusts to their followers, but now the TRUST in the GOP has been shattered. The temple is doomed…

‘TRAITORS’ of the Lost Ark.

We are all Indiana Jones still caught in another threat in a political horror show without a clear plot written by a fat idiot who can’t say, “l lost.”

I was not really expecting Trump to get convicted by the Senate, but was still hoping that they would do the right thing. I was so let down and disgusted yesterday, and am so sick of the Republican party I just hope they really get their comeuppance in the next election. They have damaged our democracy to the point that we just barely seem to have one anymore.

This has been a public service announcement from no authority at all.

A rolling stone gathers no moss . . . or Republican voters in November every two years. It continues to flatten the Republikkkan candidates however.

bummer. I thought it was a bubble, now I see it’s a big boulder, & people are throwing paper airplanes at it. if Uncle Sam is running for his life, why is he carrying zip-ties?

Turn around and fight it – you’ll find it hollow, full of hot air, and quick to run away.

I relish the divisions in the Trumpublican party. The mid-term primaries are going to bring out their loonies who will win their races. The Democrats ought to do well.
