“Kemo Sabe” was Tonto’s pet name for The Lone Ranger. I have always liked the old Far Side cartoon that showed the Ranger, long since retired, at last consulting an Apache / English dictionary and finding to his dismay that “kemo sabe” means “horse’s rear end.” [not really] How appropriate as applied to Trump. And “tonto” in Spanish means “fool” — how appropriate as applied to sidekick VP Pence.
As in the old saying, “If the only tool you have is a hammer . . .” we have a president (sort-of) for whom all relationships are transactional. As in “If all your relationships are transactional, everybody around you is somebody to buy.”
For those who think “Free Silver” is about the poor horse trying to buck off the fattest POTUS since W.H. Taft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_silver
No tax dollars for testing or tracing. All the money has to go to rich right wingers so they can can kick back large contributions to the Republican party so they can get reelected and make even bigger tax breaks for the richest.
THE ORANGE FRUITCAKE’S clan needs the money to refill the family coffers. Bankrupt casinos don’t provide enough money to support the IDIOTS’ lifestyles.
Somewhere Clayton Moore’s spirit is in agony over how the Lone Ranger has been abused in the last few years. First there was that awful movie with Johnny Depp and now this ugly orange ape compares himself to a figure who espoused truth, justice and fair, honest living.

Nothing better than a hasty bill rushed through Congress with lots of {hopefully not intentional] loopholes!!!

This is a much better take than Scott Stantis’ political cartoon from 7/7, which is the most recent.

Is this like “Not looking a gift horse in the mouth” if you get a loan that you don’t pay back ?

His standard procedure: bribe your friends, get a cut yourself. Don’t forget his family businesses got some, too!

Some of the congress people who have businesses took care of themselves first like Rep (MO) Vickie Hartzler.
