Considering how many people are streaming in, I can but presume that the paid extras were meant to guarantee that at least a few mourners would behave with something resembling decorum. Good thought.
As an aside, so long as Trump and his followers keeps forcing themselves into the headlines, Trump is by definition NOT “gone.” And if he’s not “gone,” GBT continuing to pay attention to him doesn’t constitute being stuck in the past, whatever that even means. I’m just sayin’.
I greatly appreciate Doonesbury in general, but this arc is in very poor taste. No-one should try to raise a laugh by scenarising the funeral of a living person, however much that person is disliked.
Methods to keep the undead from rising need to be used on the body but because of electronic media, his stench and influence will continue to influence his weak minded followers.
I can’t wait to see the future strips on the documents being eaten, taped from confetti-sized pieces, flushed, etc. No wonder the low-flush toilets weren’t good enough for Trump. We thought it was because of all the Big Macs. The comedy that must have taken place with folks rushing in to retrieve documents— wow. Also, the gang of people having to follow his every movement— ugh.

Now “right-wing” commentators are going to try to argue that that’s not how the MAGA crowd would behave at Trump’s funeral. Good luck with that.

Can’t quite put my finger on it but something about Rick’s silhouette in Panel 7 seems…off, somehow.

Calling to hang the Vice-President is legitimate political discourse, according to the Republican Party.

That Trash Trump Religion
[with insincere apologies to both the original composer and Pete Seeger]
Oh, give me that Trash Trump religion
Give me that Trash Trump religion
Give me that Trash Trump religion
And that’s good enough for me
Let us pray to Traitor Tiny
And, oh Lord is he whiney
With his fake tan bright and shiny
And hat’s good enough for me
Let us pray to Don Trump, Jay Are
He’s never found in a bar
His cocaine’s out in his car
And that’s good enough for me
Let us pray to Stephen Miller
He looks like Phyllis Diller
But, brother, he’s a killer
And that’s good enough for me
Let us pray to Steven Bannon
Then shoot him out a cannon
Right into the Grand Canyon
And that’s good enough for me
Let us pray to General Mike Flynn
That military has-been
Is treasonous once and again
And that’s good enough for me

I’d go to 45’s funeral for no other reason than to get a chance to urinate on his grave.

I will wait and attend a gravesite service where I’ll be pouring out a 40 over his grave. After I filter it through my kidneys.

When 45 tips over, his loyal base will be telling everyone that he’s still alive and will appear at a rally “any minute now.”

Shouldn’t the Funeral Chant be: “Bury Mike Pence”?
Or is 45 being Cremated since he was going to the Hot Spot anyway?
