NEW COMIC TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS AND WHEN THE MOOD STRIKES

Who knows why Trump gets these bees in his bonnet? This time he decided to go after Boeing. I'm no fan of massive multinational war profiteers—ahem, defense contractors, but this is not the right way to go about...anything. The enemy of my enemy isn't my friend when he's just flailing around like a fruit loop with a minigun.

Trump, in his idiot way, does occasionally stumble upon things progressives might agree with. "Why don't we tell Boeing to fuck off?" isn't the worst question. "Why can't we use nuclear weapons?" is a really good question which can lead to a very healthy discussion of why we're stockpiling something we cannot ever use without wiping out the only civilization in the known universe.

It's pretty clear by now, however, that Trump isn't some divine idiot savant like Chance the gardener. He's more like Fuckwit the Knucklehead and nothing goes right when he's around. Except that he keeps seeming to get richer and more powerful—and that's not good, nor is it entirely, I suspect, by mistake.
