It's almost like a miracle (badly trying to quote FOTUS)...how he just provides you fodder for your substack drawings. Perfection, once again.

Too true, as usual with your cartoons, Ann. Couldn't laugh at this one.

Given these displays of mental and emotional disconnect, it is almost difficult to believe that he could become the threat that he has, to so many.

But, then, he has many willing enablers and assistants who do his bidding for their various reasons.

I call his many willing enablers and assistants his Orcs.

And he does their bidding. Laura Loomer ordered him to fire people, and he obliged.

He has many co-conspirators and collaborators who do his bidding and should be held just as accountable for their crimes.

The man has never seen a bag with groceries in it or a box with people in it. Part of the reason he can do cruel things to the other. Same must apply to his toadies in the White House, Congress and the Supreme Court.

Someone so profoundly self absorbed cannot see others.

I dunno. Getting chauffeured around NYC, it might be hard to never see 'those losers'.

We have amazing visual senses. We often don’t see what we don’t know exists. If we do, we tend to vilify what we see as many do when seeing the unhoused.

I think Trump rarely sees anything he looks at. And, I cannot imagine him caring on a conversation worthy of the term with anyone. He speaks in sound bites. I guest they could be called "sound bites." I don't know what to call them. Do they actually have a sentence structure? Does he ever actually say anything?

He speaks as the demented man that he is. Incoherently.

Charlie Pierce said this about Lauren Boebert, but it works for so many of them including the Dear Leader: “My eternal apologies to boxes of rocks, sacks of hair, and bags of hammers. You deserved better.”

Of all the gag-inducing things that fucking moron says, this one really did make me run for the bathroom to worship the porcelain god. This cartoon is a perfect response to him.

Trump has the vocabulary of a first grader. He uses the same simple words over and over,

Notice how the Mango Menace still has the very best old-fashioned words. Ann should stop teasing him. "Do not shoot the piano player -- he is doing his best." (Seen on an upright in an old saloon.) 😬

This breaks my heart. Our family gives to our local food bank. This is not right on so many levels. We have the resources that no one should experience food insecurity. Shame on all you black-hearted, invertebrates who call yourself public servants.

The ones who are doing all this don't call themselves "public servants", C. In the privacy of their own mind, they call themselves "Masters of the Universe". Or maybe not just in the privacy of their own mind.

Hmmm! Yeah, your box pic about says it all. Soooo sad not just in US, Canada, but also Asia, and Europe. Who gave him a mandate to destroy the world economy. He’s golfing while people wonder if they can survive. Who told him what groceries are and where they’re purchased? It’s like “tariff.” His favorite word, even though it’s three syllables! They didn’t work in the 1890’s or the 1930’s AND the world is more complicated and integrated now. It’s time to work together, people. This narcissistic bastard cannot be permitted to destroy people’s lives to grift from tariff carveouts and orchestrate a huge tax cut for himself and the 1%

This is why people say “tax the rich.” Elon Musk has what, $330 billion dollars? And some people have a cardboard box?
