Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for October 20, 2020

Well that’s true. It might be an amazing coincidence. You can’t be certain without further testing.

They need to do a double-blind study to be sure.

Logically, a new king is just about to be crowned. Though it will be better if a new logical king is the one.

Someone should try to find an antidope.

Prepare to hurl!!!

What made him think the food isn’t poisoned? Maybe the arrow that just missed him and hit the food taster instead?

But it does mean that you have your cook executed nonetheless. Horrible cooking is a crime.

Once again, reality leaves the comics panting in the dust.

After all, correlation does not imply causation.

Kings can withstand everything!

Besides, I killed him for trying to eat my supper.

Science doesn’t know!

At that point, I’d let him eat.

“Begging your Lordship’s pardon, but it’s really more that I’m concerned you’ll catch cold without any clothes.”

The food would get cold if you have to wait for the autopsy’s results. And heads of state are immune against this kind of things, poison, viruses…

I think Coverly’s predicting a royal flush. We’re gonna need a plunger.

The “poisoning” is only a theory.

What poisoning? That’s just a hoax, fake news.

I’m a science major; trust me, science is highly overrated. So much stuff is called “science”. It’s usually company A that has created their own research company B. Company B does research that cherry picks data that proves that Company A’s products work. The pharmaceutical industry is fraught with this kind of thing.

If he hadn’t test the food, it wouldn’t have been poisoned, right?

Great timing; if “he” is elected “he will be listening to the scientists” can you believe that guy?

Correlation is not causation!

The Royal Taster was 85 years old and overweight with diabetes.

Sounds like tRumps response to Covid.

Its the best food ever ! Nobody has better food than me!

King Trump

Maybe it was just a food allergy.

Who you gonna believe? The taster or me, your King, a stable genius.

High Cholesterol.

when the autopsy was finished it was discovered that the taster did not die of food poisoning but of a stroke brought on by the high cholesterol diet of the king, who had no problems with cholesterol, but the food taster did. so much for the sciency thing that everyone thinks is the ‘god’ of all until the facts are announced, changed, announced again, changed again, refuted, debunked, changed again, then revised, found to be a lie, changed once again, and then broadcast as the ‘only truth’ for ALL mankind because that’s what they are PAID a significant amount to say. js

It’s just a new recipe…

It’s too late – looks like he already took a bite.

Pure ‘Trump’ Mentality!

Then why did you hire a taster? Just to make sure it wouldn’t taste bad?

The Presidential Corona taster…

um is he the one who hired the taster or what

(From Abdul Malik in Sindbad the Sailor): I was always a disappointment, to others as well as myself. When I was chief taster to the Khan of Buhara, he expired from a cup, that had only made me…(chuckle)… riotously giddy!

shouldn’t he be wearing a red tie…?

He’s not dead. He’s probably pining for the fjords.

After seeing the 60 Minutes interview with Alexei Navalny, I was wondering if trump saw it. If I were Joe BIden, I’d hire a food taster.

It’s not poisoned if you will it into fitting your agenda…

The humor here is the irony of comments from people who deny the risks of COVID-19. They support the point that Coverly is making.

We could only hope……..
