Who in the hell was ranked lower than tRump by historians?!?!?! If anyone has a link to the rankings fo the that Trudeau is citing… please post it. I need to know who was considered more horrible.
Most recent ranking of Trump by presidential historians – 42? They’re being very generous. I still say that he’ll be the WPOAT. (he still has time to set that record)
Regarding the one in the lower right, “Most recent ranking of Trump by presidential historians”, I wonder who the lesser two (Grover Cleveland, who served two non-consecutive terms, counts as only one president) were?
A prime example of how the monocular view of the so-called ‘left’ (read: Just left of David Duke) fails to take into account the fact that a box of Democratic Party ‘facts’ (e.g.; ‘Russiagate’) would be no smaller or less egregious. The real fact is that our political system is broken and is non-functional; controlled by Capitalist interests focused on global neoliberal imperialism while using ‘identity’ issues (on both sides of the aisle) to divert the population’s attention from the facts. Mr. Trudeau of functioning as an emissary of that system. Great cartoonist but don’t lose track of his agenda.
The only reason I can read the “facts”(I won’t challenge or accept them without having a chance to do follow up research) is because I’m on a computer with enlarging capabilities.I can imagine those reading these on their phones are having a much more difficult time.
I’m related to James Buchanan, rated by historians as US’s the worst president ever. Rating Trump as #42 is dashing my dream of not being related to the cellar dweller.
speaking of conspiracy theories…watching program concerning ufo’s and theory I never heard before stating JFK was assassinated by CIA because he was about to release all the information about the Roswell incident
What an amazing concept. Well done Doonesbury team. Trouble is, those who get their facts from the comics are probably the same people who vote game show hosts for president. sigh…
The Democrats should look into hiring the Republicans’ head Propagandist. If he/she can make The Nitwit-in-Chief look this good, just think what he/she could do for the worst Democrat. (:
I feel sorry for people who get their political information basis from a severely biased cartoon. I miss the days of Zonker and his puddle, Phred and BD.
As a result of Trump publicly admitting the things he is being charged with, one would think that an investigation would not be necessary. They could go straight to the impeachment itself, not an inquiry or investigation. He can’t continue to say that he was just kidding either, that one is getting old. Nor can he say that he was ignorant of the law. Anyone else would be told that ignorance of the law is no excuse. It is a fact that he publicly confessed to the things he was accused of doing!
Former President Barack Obama made the statement at the Hindustan Times’ Leadership Summit in late November of 2017.“Those who watch Fox News and those who read the New York Times occupy completely different realities. If I watch Fox News, I wouldn’t vote for me,” he said. “Because there’s this unrecognizable character … I would watch it [and say] ‘Who is that guy? This character named Barack Obama and he’s just portrayed in these weird ways.’”
The comment was reported by Newsweek in its Dec. 1, 2017 issue.
Argythree hit the nail on the head – what was Trudeau thinking? What’s the point of a cartoon like this that can’t be read by anyone who uses reading glasses/dozen other vision issues? Thanks for nothing, Gary.
