Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 24, 2017

Honesty? That doesn’t belong in politics.

“Oh, who am I kidding? All you losers can go to hell, I’ve got bigger and better dogs, foods, and guns than you’ve ever seen in your miserable lives. Do what you want. I don’t care. HAHAHAHAHAHA!”

Yeah, by “apocalypse” he means the day when the Democrats retake control of Congress in 2018, assuming that’s what’s gonna happen, which is still very likely.

I see that Pig will have to resort to cannibalism — again.

I’m guessing that the gun is for self-defense, the dog is for food, and the Spam is for torturing one’s enemies.

Shows the president being too articulate.

The dog and the gun, maybe, but I get more than enough spam in my Inbox.

As much as I like this strip, I find I no longer need it.

Better the devils we’ve had before than the idiotic devil we have now.

I have three dogs, a rather large gun, and I own a spam factory…bring it.

This must be about the depression coming in 2018…

Spam huh. Sounds like something a Hawaiian president would say. Time to lei down the law. ALOHA!

But don’t buy a revolver.Not enuf bullets.

Name to me all the Dems with halos over their head. Yeah I think we’ll both come up with the same number. Politics corrupts, in order to advance beyond good local judgement you have to sell your soul to the devil leading your party.

Get a speed loader; problem solved.

Revolvers don’t jam.

Not everything Pol Pot did was bad. We should look into the wholesale extermination of a third of the population. At least we liberals will be happy

Why wasn’t Guard Duck in this one? Seems perfect for him!

I live in Idaho so plenty of people in this state already have the first two. I haven’t eaten spam in decades and not sure my stomach is up to it anymore. How about beef jerky?

Wow, The comments just got VERY political on this one.

Clearly the president has bought up all the dog kennels, all the gun manufacturers, and the spam producer (can there be more than 1?). He will be a gazillionaire shortly.

So you feed the spam to the dog? What happens after that? Oh, don’t forget the wall.

There is actually a word that describes well the type of talk that we are regularly subjected to from the President: trumpery. (Look it up).

Pathetic strip for Dec 24. Frazz outdid you big time, Pastis.

well done Pastis. you managed to give your readers divisiveness for the holidays.

Rat says: “I am here to improve your lives”

What he really means: “I am here to make your lives hell”

Pig is easily swayed. But, then, it is nice to be reassured by the President himself.

BTW, don’t forget plenty of ammunition for your gun….

So Pig is a cannibal?

Politicians of both Republican parties, the Democrats, and Bernie Sanders are all full of bologna. I’d rather be full of Spam.

4 MORE YEARS?!?! Wow, this President Rat madness is gonna last until 2024!

Pig is eating SPAM…..

Two and and half years later it has come to pass

Rat is a great president! Re-elect him once Biden’s done!

I’ll happily take the doggy, but not the Spam or the gun.

Uhhh… No. It’s actually 3 more years till the apocalypse
