Tom Toles for November 12, 2019

I’m pretty sure GOP politicians avoid mirrors. So disturbing when you cannot see yourself reflected. And even more when you do.

The sun shone on the mirrors of truth, and focused to ignite the trash pile.

They only mirror they have is the one Individual 1 can’t tear his eyes from.

It’s too bad because the GOP could really use a long, hard look into a mirror.

Why do Trump Disciples so badly want Ukraine to again be ruled by a Putin puppet government?

On reflection, it looks even worse!

“Smoke and mirrors”, The truth, now you see it, now you don’t.

Sigh Another day, another Drumpfster fire, another GOPiggy fire drill…

Does the GOP REALLY want this kind of presidential immunity to be the norm from now on?

Smoke and Mirrors – {a rhyme}

Smoke obscures and mirrors deflect; -

- citizens are fooled, so democracy’s wrecked.

… For instance:

Plutocrats prosper, – their power unchecked

when smoke and mirrors are taking effect.

… Coda:

Mirrors deflect and smoke obscures; -

- “Stop this villainy,” America abjures.

. . . . . . . . .

Does The Treasonweasel REALLY rely on Smoke and Mirrors, or more on LIES AND BULL$#!T?

Three years of upheaval ….this needs to end soon!

Mirrors or just putting their fingers in their ears and saying “nyah nyah nyah”.

Mirrors should be banned from congressional halls

So there won’t be single one hung on the walls.

The shameless reflections of political hacks

Have caused them to split into myriad cracks,

Then fall to the floors in sharp shards of shame

That crinkle and split and tender feet maim.

.

From those sharp fallen shards large mounds did arise

Past the height of the senators’ and congressmen’s eyes.

And the blood incurred thus blurred their vision, and hence

They lost sight of decency, tact, and a true moral sense.

Please, sweep out those mounds, flush out those eyes

And resume civil discourse and fair compromise.

Mirrors are notoriously one sided.

Mirror mirror on the wall, whose party will soon fall?

Alice (and the rest of us) through the looking glass darkly……

’Just had a thought: After Trump goes away (Oh Happy Day!), we can then go to the world and say:

The preceding 4 years was just a demo of just how bad it could be for you were you to continue to practice bigotry, saber rattling, and invading other lands and imprisoning dissidents.

Time for you to grow up – or else!

The GOP: Hastening the end of humankind and animalkind.

When are these Republican Concentration Camps for Children going to closed?

I’m sick and tired of this vicious Republican police state.

Trump administration detains nearly 70,000 migrant children in record highMore children separated from their parents in US than any other country in the world, according to UN

Have you ever seen anyone so arrogantly stupid?

New York Times is reporting that Mulvaney has told associates that his job is secure because “he knows to much” about the Trump administration’s pressuring Ukraine to deliver dirt on Democrats.
