The rationale behind the French Revolution is becoming ever more clear and ever more attractive.

Susan C Shea's avatar

Especially since trump told the NYT in a recorded interview that only his own moral judgment counts in any decision he chooses to make!!!!

Mary Roeser's avatar

What moral judgement? He has no judgement, moral or otherwise. He only has malignant narcissism, mental unbalance, and psychopathy.

Susan C Shea's avatar

Most of the workd can see that. He sees only his own magic mirror.

Didrik's avatar

I'm thinking that Trump no longer needs the mirror.

Stephen Brady's avatar

He is totally amoral. Nothing counts to him except his own immediate gratification.

Lorrie's avatar

Being "totally amoral" is a characteristic of a psychopath. If you look up the definition of psychopath, you will see that Trump's behavior is that of a psychopath.

June  Kahn's avatar

We all recognized his immorality in his first term but thought he'd grow into his job. Instead he sank to new levels of lying, stealing and being a truly evil man. How can the presidency of trump "make America great again" by all of his malicious and corrupt administration has created. Most Americans are shocked by his vindictive actions so far. He's the worst president we've ever tolerated. Each day seems like a year with his growing disdain for the majority of Americans especially brown , black and new to our country. I shudder every day with what new atrocities will unfold.

Didrik's avatar

But wait!,...there's more...! He's amoral too. Nothing for judgment to operate with. Occasonally he and J.D. need to _borrow_ morality_ from Stephen Miller, though. Then, surreptitiously slink back to Miller's Emporium of Convenient Principles, to return them before they get busted for stealing. This is the new give and take: we give, they take. What's old is new (and improved) again.

Mike Dellger's avatar

That Rumpy Boy even believes that he possesses "moral judgment" should be the final incentive to skewer him on the spit!

Lorrie's avatar

We only need to get our hands on the Epstein files to expose Trump. As Epstein noted, "he knows about the girls.," and buried in the Epstein files is the complicit behavior of Trump, that and more.

June  Kahn's avatar

Bring the files to public light then let this abomination slither back to hell. Include his co-conspirators (we all know who most of them are but there may be additional names to enter into this clown show.

Phil Johnson's avatar

That says it all... Tell that to Mrs. Good's children, Mr. T.

Jane's avatar

He has no morals and certainly no moral judgement!

Jeff Lazar's avatar

I saw that, Susan, and nearly wet myself laughing.

Susan C Shea's avatar

No laughing matter, I fear. Frightening mental illness.

Gee Brandenburg's avatar

Oh, don't even get me started!

Julie Woodcock's avatar

Since when does Trump have morals? I mean, this is a man who rapes 13-year old girls.

Phil's avatar

His reveal that he will ignore international and domestic rules said it all. With the murder of Renee Good by ICE, and two more shot by feds in Portland, it doesn't look good for domestic peace in '26.

Leslie  Gottshall-Decker's avatar

His moral judgement is the same as the red individual in bed with him on South Park. Maybe worse considering he made that choice.

I live here in DC, I'll volunteer to help with assembly.

John Walker's avatar

Be there with millions of others

CVG's avatar

Too many parallels...

Mary Roeser's avatar

I will gladly knit while the tumbrels roll by.

JWG's avatar

Ooooooo, great new vocabulary word for me. Thanks!

Mary Roeser's avatar

You are most welcome.

David's avatar

Resurrect the guillotine.

M. B. Weston's avatar

We could do that, but after having lived in Saudi Arabia for 15 years, recreating Head Chopper Square (in Riyadh) would make for better Prime Time TV.

Anne's avatar

Wow Ann, you are not pulling your punches!!! Get 'em!

justin SG's avatar

I've noticed that swear words have also become appropriately common in my vocabulary since Trump entered the public arena.

Anne's avatar

Indeed. For many of us.

Joe's avatar

...If the shoe fits......kick him in the goolies with it.

Albert Studdard's avatar

I never learned to cuss, and still think my mother is looking down on me from the

elysian fields if/when I do. I try to think of other ways to say what needs to be said.

I do not judge other people who do not have my reticence. My best friends cuss

liberally. It may be that profane language is the only kind adequate to today's realities.

Ann Telnaes has solved that problem, but I cannot draw, glad she can. She brings joy and judgment in her every post.

justin SG's avatar

Yes, that used to be my reality also... until Trump.

SPW's avatar

Same here.

Joe F's avatar

And on the news

Don G's avatar

Anne, I am glad and thankful for your courage that mirrors the courage shown by the local mayor. This was a murder without any doubt and Kristi Noem is a principal perpetrator and Trump is an accessory. It is necessary to continually point out that we have become a police state and I am hopeful that the people of Minneapolis and the entire country will “rise” to the occasion and, with all necessary force, demand Justice.

John's avatar

Yes, cold-blooded murder. If only the media had the guts to call it what it is…..

Don...do not confuse me, Anne, with the Ann, the brilliant

cartoonist.

Don G's avatar

Very sorry….unforced error. Regardless, my intention was to refer to Ann, a brilliant, fearless and talented editorial and opinion cartoonist. As for you, Anne, nice catch!!

John Crowe's avatar

The mayor said it first. Get the fuck out of Minneapolis. But this is even better. Get the fuck out of America and go to Russia, where you belong.

Phil Johnson's avatar

Not before impeachment happens here first. "First, the sentence, then the trial." (Alice in Wonderland).

Margot Goldsmith's avatar

The red of his tie and her boots is saturated with the blood of Renee Nicole Good, the people killed in the Venezuelan attack, and who knows how many others who’ve been murdered by this regime.

ConnieW's avatar

Yes! He keeps saying no one died. 120 Venezuelans died.

C. Horst's avatar

Thank you, Lady Liberty, you took the words right out of my mouth!

Ashley Wolff's avatar

And don't you dare collect $200 on your way to jail.

Ruth L Barrens's avatar

Thank you, Ann, for not pulling any punches depicting this despicable act and the unconstitutional violence being done by this regime.

Leigh Horne's avatar

No. Stay here and be convicted of cold-blooded murder.

Ellen's avatar

Thank you for capturing what I’ve been thinking👍

Erika Kienle's avatar

First killing " a not fitting puppy" then saying , it is ok to kill a woman , that is not fitting into the action. This killed woman was most probably just acting in panic,like I would do in such a sitzation, and now three kids have lost her mother.😱😢

Charles G Haacker's avatar

Please don't forget her wife, who watched the eight-second murder unfold before her eyes. Her name is Becca (Rebecca) Good, and she is shattered, widowed, left alone with three minor kids to raise, but unbowed. You go, Becca.

Michael Beyer's avatar

Great cartoon but it’s so sad and true.

peter james zarrella's avatar

I have NEVER felt more like I am living in the wrong country as I have this week. This shooting by ICE thugs has put me over the top! The mob boss and his lieutenants have reached the depths of putting this country on the road to ruin with stay away flashing to the rest off the world. This maniac needs to be put out to dry! I pray that he hasn't taken us to the point of no return! Ann, your image is spot on!

Barbara Rogers's avatar

The Orwellian lies and denials of reality and truth are crimes meant to confuse, blind, and incite chaos. Thank you, Ann, for showing us reality and truth, which unite us and end the evil darkness.

Debra Wagner's avatar

There was never any doubt that ICE could do anything they want, and Trump would 100% stand behind the brutality, up to and including murder. Reading the lengthy interview of Trump by the NYT, which started today, is absolutely bone-chilling.

L B Rose's avatar

He loves brutality when he is assured that those doing performing the horror show are doing it in his honor. Just remember that ICE is just a bigger J6 mob. Same type of folks now with more guns.

Eat Crow's avatar

Cold blooded murder of an American citizen by a federal agent. And there for the whole world to see. Meanwhile the administration tells us again to disregard the evidence of our own eyes. Fortunately we have people like Ann to remind us of the TRUTH. For that I am immensely grateful. There are still a whole lot of decent, courageous people in this nation, I hope I have the grit to follow Ann’s continuing example.

Toby Dye's avatar

Just like the administration tells us not to believe our own eyes regarding Jan. 6th, 2021...
