I swear nobody understands Donald Trump better than Garry Trudeau.
Trudeau has been exposing Donald Trump for almost thirty years now and and was mocking the Trump campaign before it was even a twinkle in the eye of Cheeto Jesus.
If any of us behaved as Trump does, we most likely wouldn't have jobs or. if we did, not for long. Yet here he is with a legitimate shot at the most important job in the land, if not world.
What is wrong with this country and its citizenry?
Everything about Trump is a caricature. If you don't want to be the butt of the joke should he be elected, please vote for Hillary, the only sane choice.
Stephen Colbert did that last night. He made sure he never called Trump a liar. But he used Trump's own words against him to great effect.
It is a sad commentary on this country when our late night talk shows and our every day cartoonists are doing more to expose political corruption than the journalists whose jobs it is supposed to be to do exactly that.
Trudeau's various renderings of Donald Trump's scalp and hair make me LOL. He expertly mocks the Trump greasiness, the Trump combover, the Trump pompadour, and the stupid looking and excessive length in back over the Trump collar. Hilarious. Brilliant. Love it.
Taste The Outrage: Donald Trump Jr.'s Tweet Compares Refugees To Skittles
... The makers of Skittles were quick to join the second camp. "Skittles are candy. Refugees are people," a spokeswoman for the candy's parent company, Wrigley, said in a widely distributed statement. "We don't feel it's an appropriate analogy....
Donald Trump was terrified to be on a talk show with Michael Moore. He went to Moore before the show all contrite to make sure that Moore wouldn't go after him on camera. Moore reported how terrified Trump was of him.
Trump is attacking Cooper because he fears Cooper is the only one that will do his job as a moderator. He already knows Wallace is a push over and has nothing to fear from him. It's Cooper that will be the problem. So he's attacking him early. This way when Cooper makes Trump look like the ass he is, Trump can just say "See, I told you he was biased."
I do think the article got one thing right. Instead of studying and preparing for the debates, he is spending all of his time trying to manipulate the moderators.
Trump is so cheap and so into the money game with this campaign that he has found so many ways to spend others' money and fill his own pockets and those of his children. It's disgusting. This morning I heard part of a news report on Trump using $258,000 of donated-from-others foundation money to pay off amounts related to his legal wranglings, and it was illegal. I'll have to go read up. The person doing the reporting mentioned Florida as one place where the money was used and I got the feeling this was connected to back when Trump tried raisin ga flag that went way beyond what was allowed in terms of size and height. The deal he made with FLA back then included an agreement to give a $100,000 donation to a vets group. I sooooo hope we learn that the money he donated didn't come put of his own pocket for even a cause he says he cares so much about. Man, I hate these Trumps. It sickens me that they've actually made millions off this election. His so-called decent children are as horrible as he is and I hope karma bites them all, beginning with Don Jr. choking to death on a mouthful of Skittles.
Tiffany has wisely kept herself far away from the Trump excrement.
Ivanka has married out of it and should the emprire fall, she won't starve.
The boys are another story. Like their dad, I don't think they could hold any sort of a job if the Trump business falls. And I think that is a real possibility after he loses this election. His entire empire is built on selling his name. When his name is Mud, there will be nothing to sell. When Trump is gone (he is 70 after all) there will be even less to sell. His two sons are going to squander what is left of the empire and the grandkids are going to be like so many descendants of the old Robber Barons are. "Yeah, my grandfather was Donald Trump but all of the money is gone now."
Yes, on Huffpo they are reporting that the $258,000 of dirty dealing with paying lawsuit fines includes the $100,000 he was ordered to donate to vets. HuffPo has the story. They also have a big story regarding Trump's pay for play involvement with a comptroller and how Trump got millions of dollars waived that he should have had to deal with.
Great, that these two stories are out there today. As Lawrence O'Donnell noted last night, Trump hugely benefited yesterday from the terrorism over the weekend and reporting Monday--if not for what happened, all the news would have been about his unacceptable words regarding his change of mind on birtherism and all that it entails.
I'd like to know why none of our government entities whose job it is to regulate are going after him for this illegal use of his charity money and PAC money. That's their job. Trump continue to do this because he believes he'll never be called on it or have to pay the consequences. (pitiful as they are) So why should the law apply to him if he's never punished by it? He's basically learned he *can* do anything he wants and get away with it.
Hi immoral minoritiers. Just checking back in to see how your presidential candidate is doing. Not looking real good, is it? Just remember when Trump is elected, it will be entirely your fault for backing the only Democrat in Washington as morally compromised and capable of losing to this buffoon. Thanks a bunch.
Is there a date for this Trump Airlines stip? I tried Google but can't find the date.
Gryphen, Thanks for sharing this funny and revealing comic strip. It's incredible how Trudeau's old mockery shows how Trump's verbal narcissistic and bullying tics haven't changed one bit over all these years.

Trump could make a fitness video.
ReplyDeleteHaaaaahhhh!!!! Too funny. Thanks for this.
DeleteOr, on November 9th, he could join the cast of "The Biggest Loser"!! (Oh please oh please oh please....)
Deletehmmmm? Rig elections? arranged bridgegates, trainwrecks, plane wrecks, forest fires, bombings, insults?
ReplyDeleteEverything about Trump is a caricature. If you don't want to be the butt of the joke should he be elected, please vote for Hillary, the only sane choice.
ReplyDeleteWhen you see Trumps exact words turned into a joke, you see how absurd he is. That's the way to fight Trump. Mock him.
ReplyDeleteSee Tina Fey/$arah. She won an Emmy for it, too, as did Julianne Moore (on a serious note) for Game Change.
DeleteYeah, you guys. Great idea. Hopefully, SNL will get that going immediately for the new season.

Absolutely excellent!!

Boy. Trump JR just keeps sticking his foot in it.
DeleteHe's going to be fired, even if he is family.
Trump Jr. won't be fired. He's in charge of keeping the white nationalists happy and assured Trump Sr. is still on their side.

Oh, no. They are spot on.

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
DeleteMoire on how hideous the Skittles comparison goes. More and more, I am coming across pieces of info tying the Trumps to the Nazis.
ReplyDeletehttps://theintercept.com/2016/09/20/nazi-who-originated-donald-trump-jr-s-skittles-metaphor-was-hanged-at-nuremberg/
White nationalists have been using Skittles as a racist meme since Trayvon Martin.
DeleteStephen Colbert hit it out of the park tonight.
DeleteHe said it began with M&Ms but Trump uses Skittles because there are no brown ones.
