What's causing it is the 50% of the electorate who voted for such a deranged maniac... that makes 'stopping' him NO easy task, particularly when the democrats prioritise keeping the identity obsessed, dogmatic fools in their ranks 'happy', thereby alienating ordinary citizens.

Like I say, I agree it's a cracking idea. But so is directly confronting the kick off wankers. Have done so a fair bit meself- it works. Their surprise at being told to fucking grow up is delicious. : )

But doesn't all use of visual references for creating a new image do this? Eg I'm about to draw a realistic 1930's dockland scene, by combining a whole host of photos and drawings together to get the historical details / body language right...

That's certainly a good idea, but it assumes the kick off idiots are ALL dishonest agitators. They're not. There's always plenty of genuine hot head drama queen idiots on hand.

Unless there's robust evidence a majority of police and military would oppose such a move by Trump, then what you're talking about would be a disaster, and may even get public support if the protests were to behave dumb enough.

I just used this bigoted fart as a rough model for a cartoon about the hypocrisy of islamic fundamentalists who trade on guilt about 'islamophobia' to try and gain a free pass from ethical scrutiny. Very useful... thanks! : )

Can you give a link to the portions of the bill that says these things re shutting down elections, not having to obey court rulings, etc?
I can't find them.

Much as I despise them both, I have seen zero hard evidence of Musk 'rigging' the election.
Do you have any?
How is this 'rigging' claim any different from Trump's exact same claim?

This is the cartoon original, c/o polyp.org.uk
This version has been altered and my signature deliberately deleted from it, which is well out of order.
Not blaming you, but it's very frustrating to see. Can you restore the original, and link to my site? Ta!

Excellent. The double standards hypocricy of letting oppressive islamic fundamentalist garbage off the hook because of a weird loyalty to a feeble, confused and performative 'islamophobic' version of anti racism needs to stop. Not least because it enables real racism to flourish.

77 million voted for Trump. Until the Democrats and those they are associated with can find a way to PERSUADE millions of them that they made a mistake (aka the hard task of grasping WHY those voters felt the Democrats would be worse) the MAGA regime will stay in power.
