It’s called "gas-lighting’ actually – trying to convive someone else that what they saw (or heard) didn’t really happen. Danae’s real good at that … Daddy’s apology doesn’t do it, either.
From Wikipedia: The rope-a-dope is a boxing fighting technique in which one contender leans against the ropes of the boxing ring and draws non-injuring offensive punches, letting the opponent tire themselves out. This gives the former the opportunity to then execute devastating offensive punches to help them win. The rope-a-dope is most famously associated with Muhammad Ali in his October 1974 “Rumble in the Jungle” match against world heavyweight champion George Foreman in Kinshasa, Zaire.
IT’S NOT MY FAULT!! It’s echoed down the ages since the first prehistoric hunter blew an easy shot at a non-aggressive food animal. Eve probably blamed the ‘apple thing’ on the serpent. It’s the first resort of those who have done something they shouldn’t. Doesn’t work all the time but enough to where it is still the first defense.
it’s the prince harry defense. among the drivel in his book is that meghan was upset for being reprimanded after saying something unpleasant to kate.-so when she says something bad and is told it’s bad, they are the victims.
Kate is one of my favorite cartoon characters. She is bright, intelligent, well-informed, and has her head screwed on very straight. She also is quite competent, for a younger sister child. All in all, I’d say she is a first-class example of what a really capable feminist should be.

Not Dad’s style, but if he loves her, he’ll hold her accountable. Parents can also be held accountable for their kids’ dangerous behaviors.

Why didn’t Danae get elected Speaker of the House??? She’d be the PERFECT one to try to lead a bunch of squabbling MAGAotts…

Considering that the incident involved Danae, “It could have been worse,” is a pretty good outcome.

Danae actually sums up modern Progressive criminal justice ‘reform’ thought. She fits right in with the ‘defund the police’ crowd.

I find it amazing how comments on a satirical cartoon turn into a political “discussion”.
