That must be Mikey Luckovitch right up front in the royal purple giving the cartoonists’ middle finger salute to Mr. 45th. May he never reign again, Trump that is; we’ll keep Mikey as long as the toons be good.
Don’t worry Mike. Congress is back in session on Monday, complete with Merrick Garland’s confirmation hearing for AG, so there should be PLENTY of fodder from the GQP …
Don’t worry, there will be normal stuff. Trump, I hope, only raised the bar temporarily. Biden is still a politician. Trump made reasonably normal seem saintly.
Trump made it tough on Borowitz to find anything more absurd than real life. Biden made it tough on Borowitz finding anything absurd to satirize, but fortunately he still has the Sedition Caucus to work with.
The drafting committee for the 2020 platform of the Republican Party initially decided that they didn’t want to (a) meet in person or for very long to do the actual work or (b) be perceived as lazy. So, using the pandemic as an excuse, they came up with the “brilliant” idea of just recycling their 2016 platform, changing nothing but the dates while claiming as a virtue that they stood for timeless ideas.
After a couple of weeks of ridicule, during which many commentators pointed out that the 2020 platform frequently lambasted “the current administration”, they decided to simply not have a platform at all. So what they are today is a Party without a Platform, Plan, Purpose, Principles, or Priorities, based solely on Personalities, Perfidy, and Power.

It’s GREAT to be able to look up the News each morning WITHOUT wondering “Oh God, WHAT THE HELL HAS THAT IGNORANT ORANGE MORON DONE THIS TIME??”

The cartoonists could go after Biden’s dog like Newsmax did. If you can’t find anything to attack on, just make something up. Newt Gingrich

I have noticed a distinct widening of subject matter in the non-hyper-right ’toons. Not so much in the ’toons by Q-supporters.

It is difficult to get a good Joke out of a President doing his job with Competence.
Particularly when he is following a Clown like Twitler.
As the old showbiz adage goes: Never follow an act composed of Dogs or Children.

Oh, not to worry. As long as a single Republican lives there will be ample material for editorial cartoonists.
