This is a disgustingly offensive cartoon. It is totally inappropriate and by the comments promotes the insane hatred that caused the shooter to try to assassinate Trump. Such behavior is un-American and even Biden said to cut out the attacks on Trump.
Only one party these days actively foments violence and hate, and that to a constituency that is armed to the teeth. The GOP contention that the Dems are a threat to democracy and are based on provably false assertions, a classic case of projection. The provably genuine threat to democracy is the GOP and an anti-Constitutional Supreme Court. While all political violence is reprehensible, Trumps demise , the actual subject of this cartoon, would benefit the US and the world.
ICYMI, see the header above all political cartoons.
GC has taken the brave step (/s) of closing comments on political cartoons. A move worthy of Brooke McEdowney indeed! They say they ‘may’ reinstate comments in 2015.
Just think of all the clickbait ad revenue they’ll be missing out on, since the editorial cartoons generate so much traffic in their comments sections. The mind boggles. Well thought-out on the part of the GC overlords!
And now all the political commentary will move to Luann or Crankshaft, i guess…
How long before they close all comments altogether? Stay tuned!
Well, GC, aren’t you proud of yourselves? Your forbearance, your compassion? You booted Doonesbury for a remark his creator made on another venue, which was unfavorable to one of your Protected Classes. Now here’s a lesser artist proclaiming support for assassination of a past President who’s a political opponent, and he’s still here up on GC. What a remarkable group you must be. POS, Avoid.
The Democrats have a huge arsenal of videos/tapes of the comments by Trump’s sycophants that weren’t exactly flattering! Didn’t Vance compare him to Hitler? The last thing anyone wants is for either side to create martyrs.
If a member of the Trump cult shot Hillary, as Trump encouraged in his Aug2016 speech, truly doubt there would be any sympathy, not even any"thoughts and prayers", the least you could do while pretending to do anything. Like the school shootings, like the GOP baseball shooting where Steven Scalise took one for the team and the NRA donations

If the bullet had entered his head, there wouldn’t have been much damage.

A DA kid shot a POS and some of his followers. Don’t shoot people, even P’OS.

I’m no fan of Mr. Trump, but assassination does not seem like the answer. He should be fought in the contest of ideas and the ballot box instead.
