Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 29, 2020

Trump does not take any responsibility at all for what he did to these women.

I’m kinda into big round orange faces with white eyeliner….not

If only Jeffrey Epstein hadn’t “committed suicide” and his girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, hadn’t “gone into hiding”, we might have some of the proof….

How many of the twenty-six do you think will be featured at the presidential debates? Because that’s a thing we do now, right? Right?

Best representation of his cheap Earl Schieb Paint Job that I’ve seen yet!

By the way… “Attention Seekers gotta seek, and LIARS LIKE TRUMP GOTTA LIE!”

Not long ago I commented that I was waiting to see what Trump does when he realizes that Pence’s performance as the head of the federal covid-19 effort looked so competent and presidential that it was showing Trump up. Well, it must have happened, because now it’s Trump out front at the press conferences, with Pence standing around in the background.

Now we can understand what the famous “COVFEFE” tweet means : C orona V irus FE ral FE rine . He’s a stable genius and a contemporary Nostradamus too .

Trump Disciples actually believe those women want that kind of attention.

Their awesome analysis skills.

That a person like this has the support of 40% of Americans frightens me.

Seekers gotta seek, reekers gotta reek.

Gary are you in real-time? Aren’t there more pressing events to comment on?

It is hugely frustrating to see conservatives, who couldn’t give a damn about the multiple sexual assault allegations against Donald Trump, weaponize the accusations against Biden.

However, it’s also frustrating to see so many liberals turning a blind eye. The accusations against the former vice-president are serious; why aren’t they being taken seriously? One obvious reason is that Reade’s accusations are very hard to prove. The incident happened a long time ago and there weren’t any witnesses.

Reade also gave a slightly different version of events last year; she accused Biden of touching her neck and shoulders in a way that was inappropriate and uncomfortable, but did not say anything sexual took place. This inconsistency obviously doesn’t mean she’s lying; unfortunately, it is easy to use against her.

✄

You know who has talked publicly about the importance of taking women seriously? Biden. During the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, Biden stood up for Dr Christine Blasey Ford, noting: “For a woman to come forward in the glaring lights of focus, nationally, you’ve got to start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what she’s talking about is real.”

There are some people who will insist that drawing attention to the new allegations against Biden is playing into the Republicans’ hands. That it will destroy Biden’s campaign and guarantee us four more years of Trump.

Not only is that argument hypocritical, it is also hugely unlikely that Reade’s accusations will do any damage whatsoever to Biden’s ambitions. Allegations of sexual assault certainly haven’t posed any hindrance to Trump. The allegations against Kavanaugh didn’t stop him from becoming a supreme court justice. (Louis CK ✄) And the multiple women who have accused Biden of touching them inappropriately in the past haven’t exactly derailed his career.

Garry Trudeau, master of sarchasm.

All phony, as usual with Trump.

Aren’t Patriarchal societies great? We’ll subjugate anything!

Ok, yeah. And yeah, the right’s throwing everything at Biden. I just have no bandwidth for anything but the plague. And Trump denying aid unless he’s complimented. God…

Idiot Republicans gotta support the creepy, sexist, racist, greedy, incompetent liar.

Too bad there is nothing funny about a pandemic and we are all caught in the middle of it. Anyone having any luck getting toilet paper? The lack of protection for healthcare workers continues to terrify me, especially since I live with a surgeon. They are definitely taking precautions as best they can with rationing.

Trump is a disgrace to this nation.

There’s another message in this strip. A lot of men accuse most women of making up sexual assault accusations for – money? Personal amusement? Everything the women in the second last panel list is just a sampling of what rape and sexual assault victims endure for speaking up. They could also have added being forced out of their houses for safety and having the lives of their children threatened.

To the whataboutery commentators: I’m curious. Are you going to vote for Trump?

and this is why I stopped reading the sunday’s. there’s so much else happening. so much the big orange one gets wrong and you go for this?

Yeah, it’s their fault they’re women…

Mr. Trudeau, I believe you got the president’s name wrong. You meant William Jefferson Clinton, right?

i wonder when the families of loved ones who have died from the coronavirus will file lawsuits against Trump and our govt for their deaths due to the lack ofpreparedness and suppiles/equipment for our caregivers and hospitals to help them fight this pandemic.

Spends money he doesn’t have, spends money he doesn’t have, spends money he doesn’t have, declares bankruptcy.

Buys stuff he can’t afford, buys stuff he can’t afford, buys stuff he can’t afford, stiffs the workers and merchants who provided it.

Screws up, screws up, screws up, blames everybody but himself.

Attempts to call him to account? “Just try it, loser. My lawyers can outlast your lawyers.”

Is this any way to run a country? Obviously not! But who expects him to abandon the habits of a lifetime now? Well, apparently, about 2 citizens out of 5.

It makes you wish Stormy Daniels had spanked Trump with something more solid than a Forbes magazine—say, a sledgehammer?

This is the most “sad-funny” thing I’ve seen probably all year.

I miss the ‘old’ Doonesbury that was topical.

Hey Gary? Get some fresh material. That is so 2016.

Coincidence this shows up after the allegation against Biden this week?

@Andylit “That is so 2016.” Good for recognizing that. At last, we’re free of all your allusions to Hillary Clinton, which you will never never never again inflict upon us, right?

Trudeau’s trump looks like the Judge from The Wall.

There is a typo in panel three: It should say “two dozen women have CREDIBLY accused …” Perhaps someone should alert the editors. Accuracy counts!

Trump’s reaching the point where humor no longer applies—he’s already gone there.

What about Tara Reade? Oh wait, she accused Biden, so we don’t believe her. Forgot the narrative for a minute there.
