Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for September 25, 2020

Duct tape and Benadryl in the milk.

Duke tape .

Ask Red Green!

“If it doesn’t move and should, WD-40.

“If it moves, and shouldn’t, duct tape!”

It was Dexter’s best friend, too.

Charles Dickens has nothing on this guy.

Probably few that can’t be created by it, too.

Contemplating who Duke might have learned that from, and how he learned it, is disheartening in itself. :-|

My kids are like me, they view duct tape as the eighth wonder of the world. They use it all the time.

Duke is under consideration to be head of ICE in Trump’s second term.

I love Doonesbury, but reading this in 2020 I’m having a hard time finding it funny.

Duct Tape: “It does more than just cover that dashboard light that will not go off. Get some today!”

blue duct tape, like the tape binding the young girls trafficked as described by Clockwork Orange “Model Agency My Foot” Degenerate T666p

Once had two “open marriage” coworkers. Bragged in the breakroom how well their infant daughter slept. Just a few ounces of beer added to her day’s last bottle. Child services showed up the next day..

I think this particular incarnation of Duke was modeled after my mother’s third, or was it her fourth, husband.

How do you control 35 kids? Ask any teacher who works for some of the more overtaxed school systems. Class sizes over 30 are bad but not uncommon.

Duke is going to need a sizeable chunk of that 50K to pay off the state agency that certifies residential child care facilities.

Rarely is Duke so right and so wrong at the same time. It is his trade mark all the same.

There are few problems of any sort that can’t be solved with duct tape. Just ask Red Green. (Speaking of whom, is there any chance his middle name is Blue? That would be so cool.)

Only adult children call him “Uncle Duke”. Families with small children call him “Uncle Restraining Order”.

This storyline is dark, but funny at the same time. A nice entertaining idea to keep us tuned in.

It was actually found that the one thing duct tape isn’t very good for is……yes, taping ducts.

Duct tape is the force, it has a light side, a dark side, and holds the universe together.

I wouldn’t trust Duke with a child mannequin, much less a real child. I’d rather apply the duct tape to him. Mounted over the fireplace would be good.
