Speaking as a Canadian born person – we/they will politely knock the stuffings out of him!

The scariest thing is, dastardly Donald is staring to make me lean towards the untrustworthy Hillary. What horror!

Do you really think Trump would like someone who was just like him?!?

or, drumpf’s supporters love supporting a guy who wants to have sex with his daughter. his wives are foreign. his business are failures(trump university is a scam). he cheated on his wife with his best friend’s wife. he associate with known mobsters. he constantly lies. he advocates violence against those oppose him. he advocates war crimes. and, he would sell everything even the grand canyon to the highest bidder.

the more people slam trump and gang up on him the more i’m thinking maybe i should vote for him.someone supposedly as hated as he is by the establishment and media may be the exact person we need to offset the last 8 years of ineptness. so keep it up lewis and fry you may just get me to change my vote

For me personally voting for DT would be like voting for Hitler. He’s a liar cheat womanizer & hates anyone who won’t kiss his {fill in the blank} If you disagree or oppose him he’ll call you a loser. As President he could lock you up as a dissident or terrorist

The last time you tried that, we marched on Washington and burnt the place. Not even Lee could do that. But maybe its a plot so we can take over, perhaps we will be Justin time, and free health care too!

I’d use Harry Truman’s approach: just tell the truth about him

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone: politics as usual on both sides. The “Donald” at least says it crudely rather than hides it behind a lying smile. A $1,000 deductible is in essence no insurance to most people who work, pay taxes, have children, a mortgage and a car payment especially when the premiums are rising so quickly. So much for universal health care which is really just another political expedient to remain in power. I really do not like any of the choices we apparently will have this year so it is a matter of holding my nose and voting for the lesser of two evils. God help the Gen X and Millennials as they will be the ones to face the music when the vig (interest) on the debt exceeds the ability to pay it (think Greece without anyone to bail us out). Tax and spend is not just a “demon-crat” vice but is also a “Repugnant-cun” one also. God help the next few generations. Live it up while you can. My poor grandchildren will pay for the largess of those running up the national debt. Today, being a liberal is no better than being a conservative as both are bought and paid for by the power brokers.

Since when did this comic strip become such a political rag tag commentary. I go to the comics to get relief from all the garbage that is being spewed all over television. Let’s just stick to making the comics “funny”.

I keep worrying about what we’ll look like to other countries if Drumpf bullies his way into the White House. Like it or not, we have to get along with the rest of the world. Our president would be vulgar, belligerent, hypocritical, egotistic, woefully ignorant of foreign affairs and sporting an incredibly phony spray-on tan. The First Lady would be an immigrant trophy wife who probably has zero diplomatic skills and has posed in the nude. (I admit that my comments about Mrs. Drumpf may be irrelevant. He still has several months to dump her and pick up Trophy Wife #4. It’s been know to happen.)
Maybe I’m wasting my breath. Maybe we shouldn’t care about how we look to the rest of the world. We’re the greatest country and we’re gonna make Murrica GREAT again! So it’ll be all right to swagger around and lord it over other countries which are not Murrica and therefore inferior.

I’ve heard numerous references to the roar of the Don’s crowds, as if they were a manner of collective beast.

Trump is a leftist. Hillary is a leftist. Obama is a leftist. Peas in a pod. I’ll go libertarian before I vote for more government.

Is this going to be a political strip for the next 8 months? I get enough of that on the 5 o’clock news.

“Short-fingered vulgarian”? Seems Lewis & Fry are fans of the old SPY magazine!

Keep it funny without being political guys. You’ve been doing it well for years without having to start writing strips that are better placed on the editorial page. We’re reading the strip for FUNNY stuff, not POLITICAL stuff. Lord knows there’s enough of that everywhere else. If all else fails, remember: if you go to McDonald’s and they try to sell you a tuna fish sandwich, there’s something wrong….and if I do to Over the Hedge and they try to sell me politics…..get the message?

Half the issue with US politics is the amount of money one needs to even enter the race.
It set the kind of people your going to have to choose from right from the start.
