Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for February 06, 2022

Instead of leaving any money to his children, Trump will probably put it in trust to attack those who say bad things about him, especially if they are true.

It would be the best gift the USA could receive right now.

I hope they install a washstand near his grave.

I’ve been taking dance lessons. I hope his grave is publicly accessible.

…and the epitaph on his tombstone: “Here lies Donald John Trump, as always.”

(just getting this out of the way)

GBT is under no obligation to be “fair and balanced.” He’s under no obligation to draw strips about Biden if he’d rather keep drawing strips about Trump instead.

If you want strips about Biden, any number of other webcomic artists are offering such strips at this very moment. Consider reading one of those instead. Thank you.

(just getting that out of the way)

He respects the money.

That is now and again my excuse for turning up at funerals. I want to be sure.

His kids will be charging admission. You can count on it…

He probably doesn’t really believe that the world will continue to exist without him, so he’d consider planning a funeral to be a waste of time. No one would be there because there would be no one, period.

How much do the pall bearers get?

Will they be paid by the RNC? Or the KGB?

Interesting daydream, but I bet TFG has already cloned himself and plans to pass his baton to “himself”, the only love of his life. The funny part will be when the clone stabs him in the back. Then the student will have truly become the “master”.

If it was up to me, he’d be cremated and his ashes scattered in the waste stream at a sewage treatment plant…

I will just flush, done.

After his funeral, they will have a get-together in Dallas so he can reappear with JFF Jr. Then make the journey to the White House and be reseated on the throne of power in the Oval Office. And become the President for ever guy.

I honestly wish this would happen IRL.

And VERY soon!!

I wonder how much they would pay the extras.

At the state funeral for the 45th president … it was the biggest crowd ever! Looked like a million, million-and-a-half people!

Well, there have been “Paid Extras” with him all along, from his descent down the escalator, to EVERY RALLY, so why stop now???

I would go just to make sure he was really dead! Sorry, no respect here…

TDS runs strong in GBT ;)

Give the people what they want and they’ll show up for it. And the party afterward? Big! HUGE! Biggest party every for the funeral of a head of state (photos of millions of Muslims on the Hajj which will be labels as mourners/party-goers to prove the size).

Huh, I don’t pay much attention to the petty school yard talk these days, but just I noticed that at least his followers here don’t seem to realize the meaning of “TDS” hasn’t been used in the original sense for awhile now. Most of the rest of us now use it to describe his folks who will carry out treason, insurrection, and sedition for him and their supporters, the folks who call it “legitimate political discourse” and then say they “love America.” Now, if that’s not “deranged” thinking, we need to just scrap the word entirely, chuckle.

When you are tired of comics, look up the photos of the people wearing blackface and “Blacks for Trump 2020” tee shirts at his rally.

Uh… Who died? I don’t follow national or international news.

I know I’ll show up, I want to pee on his coffin…

I would go simply out of relief … and to see where he gets buried so I can piss on his grave.

Gary got it wrong. The state funeral will be for the 45th and the 47th president.

Ya know, maybe if we all just pretend he’s dead. We talk about him in the past tense. No one looks at him, or talks to him. Don’t answer his calls. Melania can have a big garage sale, sell all his crap. The kids can quit waiting and divide up his estate. We just quit acknowledging his existance, pretty soon he’ll just go away.

Well, there’s a thought. Maybe the President and other folks who need a big turnout for whatever they want a turnout for should have it catered and hand out t-shirts. Lots of people show up for hotdogs and t-shirts and never even see the band. …just saying. “Butts in seats.” is a thing.

More like people will attend just to make sure he’s dead.

He would start he’s next BIG lie and convince himself “I AIN’T DEAD” and people will believe

It will be the largest crowd ever for a funeral. So says Sean Spicer

Do we feel safe in presuming that he won’t linger as a ghost or a vampire or et cetera? I could easily see some of his followers buying into that without hesitation. After all, some of them think John F. Kennedy Jr.‘s going to return from the dead, don’t they? :-|

I think Garry Trudeau is being eerily prescient, with today’s strip.

Only partially on-topic but I’ll admit that I find it odd that, apparently, Trump was the only president within living memory who never received death threats. He can’t have. Because we know that if he’d received death threats, he’d never have kept quiet about it. He’d have publicized the threat-senders’ names 24/7 and some of his followers would’ve murdered said senders within 24 hours. And we’d still be hearing about them.

Then again, Ann Coulter has insulted Trump on multiple occasions, declaring that thanks to him there wouldn’t be another Republican president until 4820 (well after we ain’t gonna need our teeth and won’t need our eyes yet well before our arms will be hangin’ limp at our sides), yet she’s somehow avoided being raped to death by Trump followers and I don’t really have a point on this one, sorry about that. :-|

Trump will be entitled to a full state funeral, and I’m sure his family will make it as big and expensive as they possibly can at taxpayer expense, so they can make it seem as if the country is totally torn apart by the loss.

LMAO….they’ll show up to make sure he’s dead….and piss on his grave

You’re there to poke the body with a stick. (And poke it you will be able to: you KNOW it will be open-casket.)

As he writes it all down.

trumps kids are at the house, going through his stuff

Who is he talking about? Trump who? Oh, yeah, the guy who had some kind of dementia and thought he had won a second term. Talked like a stroke victim for years. Yeah … democracy, right? Whattayougonnado?

Where is the grieving widow ?

This day can’t come soon enough. I imagine a stroke followed by months of nothing but drool down his chin; but that’s just me I guess.An aside: imagine The World today, 2022, if he’d been stillborn.

^^ when did the Republican Party start believing that members of the Democratic Party hate America? Or is it only the members of the new iteration of the GOP, The Party Of Trump?

I am quite shocked at how far the Republican Party has fallen. From 1973 when even the most ardent Nixon defenders in Congress were ready to vote to not only impeach but convict him, to 2022 when the current GQP censures the 2 real Republicans on the Jan 6 House investigation after the GQP House Minority Leader McCarthy-R-CA-attempted to include Trump cult members on the 1/6 Committee. That members of the Republican Party would go so far as to actually defend Putin, just as Trump stated his belief in Putin over the 17 US intelligence Agencies. And these same Cult Trump members(like barjean58 and Coyote)have the gall(and massive hypocrisy) to accuse the other main political party(Democratic) in the US of hating America. When did a difference of opinion become treason in the minds of the current GQP? When did the GQP start ignoring the long held unwritten Congressional rule of not openly criticizing the foreign policy of the US when the other Party was in the WH? When did GQP members of Congress become so rude and lacking in manners as to jump up during a SOTU speech and scream that Obama was lying? When did the GQP throw away all of their principles and go so far as to officially proclaim the Jan 6 insurrection was a peaceful political demonstration? Even better, Why did the GQP remain totally silent(while 147 GQP members of Congress joined in the attempted coup) when Trump attempted a coup after he lost the 2020 election? Why are the GQP leaders still blatantly lying about what happened on Jan 6?(Don’t believe your eyes, instead believe our outright lies)

Oh if only, that will be time for dancing in the streets.

I’d be there just to make certain…

Would there be a traditional presidential funeral procession? The riderless horse with the stirrups reversed? A Swayback horse? Enquiring minds want to know.

He bought them at a very low price.

I’m personally hoping he has ANOTHER stroke, but a massive one this time, leaving him unable to speak or move, but still aware of what is going on around him as he lies in a hospital bed in a puddle of his own waste for YEARS as his crimes and treason against America are exposed for the entire world to see.

It’s in BunkerBoy’s will: “pay 130,000 people to show up to my funeral . . . and use the money I have in RuSHAH to pay for it! MUHGAH!”

Maybe like the big lie – if you say it enough it will be true.

OMG I want to live long enough to see the clown in chief DEAD

I think Trudeau is the “one horse pony soldier” not Peter Duecy .Trump lives rent free in his head, and apparently most of yours as well. He should be commenting about President Biden AKA “Brandon” or President “house plant” , that would be relevent social commentary…..or just stick to the rerun dailies. These Sunday comics are far from “new”

This must being the end of the Trump jokes and the feigning outrage over 1/6. Now to move on to sex parties at CNN

From your pen to God’s ears, Mr. Trudeau…

What a bunch of sick commenters. Disgusting.

Kudos to Trudeau. This is both brilliant and necessary.

I am a retired hospice chaplain and have known all along that Trump is terrified of death. T’s whole life is running away from death. He thinks , to the extent he thinks, that if he accrues enough wealth and power he will be the one person to live on forever. It’s madness but so is his denial. His denial has led to him capturing the minds of millions who share his fear.

I plan to pour one out over his grave. After I filter it through my kidneys first.

I wonder: Has Trump had construction started yet on his gold-plated, rhinestone-encrusted mausoleum, or has the “very stable genius” convinced himself he is immortal?

What a morbid strip! What prompted it I wonder…. Does Mr. Trudeau know something about the Toxic T’s medical condition?

Its a race against time.. Will Trump die before the majority of his idiotic covid denying antivaxxers die off of covid or any other the other idiotic things they do? Stay tuned!! lol

I once had a job as a paid clapper for a gameshow that Craig Ferguson was hosting.. worst paid day of my life! Hands hurt like hell too.

Trump’s aide says to him, “Sir, I had a dream you got your parade. It was miles and miles long winding through Washington DC. Joyful Americans lined the route, literally in the millions. People were laughing, cheering, playing in the street. You were riding in the most beautiful carriage.”

Trump asks, “Was I happy?”

The aide answers, “I don’t know, sir. The casket was closed.”

We can only hope! That dipstick trump is one dude we could do without, the sooner, the better!

Be careful, Mr. Extra. Make sure the check clears before you do a job for the Trumps.

many that show up will prolly be carrying long needles or pins to poke the body, to make sure he really dead. and bet it already arranged for thousands of “extras” to be hired so will still seem like he popular. his ego would demand a stadium full of people be there for it.

HE$$, if he didn’t think he had chance of getting back in office for white house, he would prolly fake his death to avoid legal issues. or let body double go to prison for him

My own plan for Tiny’s eventual demise is to make a lot of money by standing outside the obsequies’ venue, selling wooden stakes and mallets. Maybe even some silver bullets, given his cult’s firearms fetishism.

I remember those photos of his rallies: Patste-over crowd of the same group. They at least could have had some imagination and a competent graphic designer.

There’s someplace, where they compost the body, could we just dump trump and cover him with garbage?

“If the right people had been in charge of Nixon’s funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles.” — Hunter S. Thompson

Similarly, I would suggest that Trump’s appropriate resting place would be in one of the big silver sewage digester eggs at the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant in Brooklyn.

It would seem as if GT is almost wishing for 45’s death. Just a little morbid, but not unexpected.

Well, this longed-for event will likely be as popular as the despised Columbia Studio’s Harry Cohn’s was: "Cohn’s well-attended funeral on stage 12 of the Columbia lot was the subject of the famous (perhaps apocryphal) quote attributed to Red Skelton: “It proves what Harry always said: Give the public what they want and they’ll come out for it.” He is interred in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Hollywood."

Trudeau has Trump on the brain. Ignores the fact that he has millions of supporters and fans. Oblivious to Biden and his many blunders. Hope he wakes up sometime.

And their bank accounts

“It’s just a comic strip, people should really just relax.”

Repeat as needed.

On the day he drops dead, the only thing I hope to hear in response to his death is: “We’ll never see another one like him.”

But my biggest fear is the crackpot notions that will immediately begin floating around:

“He’s not dead. He’s hiding out in [name a place] until he’s ready to make his comeback.”

“He didn’t die of natural causes. He was really murdered by [fake news] [Melania] [name of any Democrat] [name of anyone who ever said a word against him].”

“He’s still the President, because of course he really won the 2020 election.”

“At least he’s in Heaven now, with God.”

“How sad! We’ve lost a great man.”

I so love Rick’s face in those last two panels—he’s got him and he knows it.

I am no fan of Trump, but if the sackcloth and ashes over Nixon was anything to go by..that was a bit before my time, but I was amazed at the reaction.

Not only was this comic strip disrespectful and hateful, the hundred plus readers’ comments in agreement on this web site are equally distasteful. One hundred years from now, presuming our country still exists, Trump will be considered one our greatest presidents as well as one of the modern world’s greatest leaders.

Those who delight in the future death of another person have no shame. I am sure that when President Trump passes there will be millions who will mourn his passing and there will also be “mostly peaceful” protests too.

For those who wonder who I am, see my bio to this site.

Seriously,is the Federal Government LEGALLY OBLIGATED to pay for Trump’s funeral?

If this bunch is so against “government welfare”,they can pay for theservices out of their own doubtfully acquired millions..

And Trudeau hit it on the head.So many people are behaving like Trump is blackmailing them and they don’t h ave guts enough to call the police.

I don’t like wishing anyone dead. Not even the piece of lying garbage he is, simply becoz the old saying, “Be careful what you wish for” what would come after he’s dead and gone could be even worse. The next one might have a brain!

It seems nearly all of the commenters here agree with Mr. Trudeau’s Doonesbury cartoon;that the world should rejoice when Trump dies. It goes to show the left are the true haters, but have the audacity to call Trump and his supporters the haters.

President Trump will have the last laugh as I am positive that 100 years from now he will be considered one of our greatest presidents and one of the world’s greatest leaders.

As to how our current president will be remembered, I believe his legacy be on par with his son Hunter Biden; to wit a disgrace.

You definitely should attend #45’s funeral, Trudeau! He’s paid for a couple of your houses!
