Prickly City by Scott Stantis for September 11, 2024

But babies are being eaten and pets are being executed … or something like that

I was too sober to watch the debacle tonight, I tried…10 minutes in and trumps lies made me change the channel. Came back maybe 30 minutes later…still more lies so I gave up!

Welp, she’s not going backwards like tiny.

I think the school bus shown above is what you get when you’re still chasing Oliver.

Scott, give it up! Your libertarian is neither going to win nor, if he wins, be better than Harris – or – dare I say – Trump!

I won’t pretend Harris is perfect. But Trump is perfect. Perfectly awful, that is.

Not sure what it would take, but today, the only purpose of third parties is to siphon off enough votes from the less than perfect and allows the perfectly awful to win.

We can only go forward from here. Any further back and we’ll be in the Dark Ages.

I guess this is Stantis’ effort to be ‘balanced’ after yesterday’s kinda, sorta not quite identifying the Elephant/mammoth (not the Republican Party of Trump, though) as wanting to take us backwards.

I’m glad he left no doubt who he was criticizing today, identifying them by name.

.

An almost criticism of an elephant ‘balanced’ with a specific criticism of specific Democratic candidates.

Pretty good for someone not in the cult. Definitely not part of the cult.

I watched the entire debate. I was amazed at how easily she triggered tRump into bringing up the Haitians eating pets thing. He was even flustered enough to go with eating dogs instead of ducks. And it’s my understanding the story is more about a crappy landlord trying to cover up how bad his building is.

Well, Stanti, your 2-3 week delay before gitting around to what is really happening in the world will not have the same effect, when you finally address the trumpsterweird being bounced around the debate stage event.

It is alleged to be the bus back to where Trump only deserved ridicule. I liked that place.

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz together maintains no sense of direction. Their no future policies will only ruin America and financially hurt American Workers if they win the 2024 election. Vote Republican 2024

Trump is George Costanza. It struck me last night. I can’t watch Seinfeld because every time he comes in I reflexively turn it off. Same thing happened last night the first time he spewed stream of consciousness made up rally fodder. After that I just muted him and watched him flail red faced while she looked amused. Enlightening. Only remains to be seen if a woman will be allowed to beat a man.

Once again the “Sun” above is eclipsed by reality. Harris very clearly laid out policies regarding home ownership, small business creation, women’s rights, health care etc.

Trump apparently has a “concept” regarding health care (the dog ate his homework?). Despite being in the political sphere for 9 years or so, that’s it… oh, and bacon & eggs; apparently no one can afford them. I think I’ll splurge on the 50 cents and have a couple of them for breakfast.

Vance actually said that he didn’t know if the Haitians-eating-pets things was true, but even if it was just a rumor it was GOOD to spread it for the purpose of getting people outraged at Haitian immigrants. Who are LEGAL and WORKING.

And to end the night and trump’s campaign of “terra” :

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.

With love and hope, Taylor Swift – Childless Cat Lady" – posting to her 300 million followers

The Taylor Swift endorsement is the knockout punch after Harris dogwalked trump all night.

Was that Kamalala last night, or Biden in a wig?

Who knew pet eating Haitians was such a national problem?

Popped in occassional and every time DJT had deviated from the question. David Muir would try to bring him back on track but he’d just sail off again.

Fern is home,crawling under the living room sofa in fetal position—-wondering if now he’ll have to actually get a job and work for a living.

I watched the Orioles beat the Red Sox instead, but I’m looking forward to the afterclips.

Did you know that they were so sure THE TITANIC wouldn’t sink that they had only half the number of life boats needed to evacuate the ship?Anybody in government looking to abandon Trumpship better hurry.Space is limited.

’Didn’t watch last night; ‘got better things to do with my time; spent the evening with grandkids. I hear / read this morning that Kamala did quite well (actually managed to appear competent?) and did manage to get under Trump’s skin. Trump otherwise was pretty much the same ole Trump that people either viscerally love or hate.

The direction is ‘Forward’.

Dead people can get under Trump’s skin, let alone live ones

Didn’t realize Bob Seger was in the debate.

The question I have for all the Trump supporters is this: If Kamala Harris, someone who they believe is a lightweight, can get Trump to chase his own tail all night long, what in the world do they think goes on when their purported strong man goes up against someone like Putin?

Another silly cartoon strip about where candidates stand. The reality is that one lives in the real world and the other doesn’t. Fact-checking is really easy now.
