Upside Down

© Joe Heller This explains why whenever Donald Trump opens his mouth, he upsets everything. Some people seem to think that Trump’s role as a wrecking ball is a good thing, that the US needs to be destroyed so it can be rebuilt. But can any of those people think of another country that is […]

Many Happy Returns?

© Jeff Danziger Somebody has to have hacked into Donald Trump’s tax returns by now. But I guess WikiLeaks is too busy leaking DNC emails showing that the Democrats weren’t nice to Sanders. Maybe potential evidence that Trump is a pawn of the Russians is less interesting to them. Meanwhile, Trump continues to be in […]

American Jobs?

If Donald Trump is promising to create jobs for Americans, why is he hiring foreigners to work at his American resorts? He claims he can’t find any workers, but a local employment agency says that they have plenty of Americans looking for those kind of jobs.

Debatable

On Friday, Trump accused Hillary Clinton of rigging the presidential debate schedule, tweeting: There’s just one problem with that — it is a complete fabrication. “Hillary & the Dems” had nothing to do with the presidential debate schedule. While the primary debates are scheduled by the political parties, the debates for the general election were […]

Trumper Tantrum!

Donald Trump famously has a very thin skin. If you say something negative about him, he attacks you and calls you names. Well, unless he wants something from you. But the worst thing you can do to Trump is not pay attention to him. It wouldn’t surprise me if he started a nuclear war just […]

Pensive Hypocrisy

Friday, VP nominee Mike Pence appeared on conservative Hugh Hewitt’s radio show and condemned President Obama for referring to Donald Trump as a “homegrown demogogue”. Pence said, seemingly without irony “I don’t think name-calling has any place in public life. And I thought that was unfortunate that the president of the United States would use […]

Release the Tax Returns

There are lies, and there are damn lies. In a TV interview with CBS, Trump’s campaign manager said “Mr. Trump has said that his taxes are under audit and he will not be releasing them. It has nothing to do with Russia, it has nothing to do with any country other than the United States, […]

LMGTFY

Donald Trump Jr., Let Me Google That For You. I’m sure everybody knows how Trump’s wife Melania got in trouble for plagiarizing parts of her convention speech from First Lady Michelle Obama’s 2008 Democratic convention speech. I guess Trump’s son, Donald Jr., was trying to get his revenge. So today, Jr claimed that Barack Obama, […]

The Devil in the Details

© Jen Sorensen Look, as someone who has started and run companies that did a lot of marketing, I understand what Trump is doing. He is “selling the sizzle, not the (Trump) steak”. Details and specifics just get in the way of removing money from your customers’ pockets. As a casino owner, he knows that […]

[Jokes from July 12, 2016] “The L.A. Times just revealed that Bill Clinton has demanded private jets to get to speaking engagements.

More Republican Racism

In her speech at the Democratic National Convention last night, Michelle Obama beautifully talked about the progress that has been made in America: That is the story of this country, the story that has brought me to this stage tonight, the story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of […]

DNC Demographics

Many pundits talk about the profound influence of demographics on US elections, but what about the demographics of the national conventions of the political parties. Other than an observation of the dance skills of RNC attendees, what do we know about the relative makeup of the conventions? Without further ado, here is Scott Bateman’s ironic […]
