SUPPORT WTFA ON PATREON

Cat: Trump has built his entire career on scamming people while using his inheritance to get over the rough patches. Dog: His entire career wasn't a scam! He was great on "Surviving the Bachelor Idol's Apprentice Housewife"! POSTER: "You know what solves it? When the economy crashes, when the country goes to total hell, and everything is a disaster, then you'll have riots to go back to where we used to be, when we were great." --Donald J. Trump Cat: He says up front he wants the economy to collapse. His cabinet will ensure it. But we're supposed to give him a chance. Dog: Give him a chance...to destroy everything! Maybe collapse is good! Could be just what we're looking for! POSTER: "I'm a Leninist. Lenin wanted to destroy the state, and that's my goal too. I want to bring everything crashing down, and destroy all of today's establishment." --Steve Bannon, Senior Adviser to Trump Cat: But you know no matter how bad things get these asshole kleptocrats won't suffer for even a femtosecond. Dog: Nothing like the collapse of civilization to shake off that existential malaise! POSTER: Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed --William Yeats

NEW COMIC TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS AND WHEN THE MOOD STRIKES

Donald Trump really does want the economy to crash (presumably worse than it already has). He repeats that fucking stupid right-wing claim that there are people better off without a job -- I guess on that king's ransom no longer called welfare and that liquor-and-lobster-spewing ATM that is no longer food stamps -- and shrugs that maybe if everything falls completely apart, those people will finally get up off their asses. Starving galley slaves row harder, everyone knows that! Homunculus-like toadying puppeteer Steve Bannon really did say he wants to destroy the state, I guess because he's an asshole. And, of course, William Yeats really did write that, after Europe had pretty much destroyed itself in World War I. Spoiler alert: It wasn't permanent, although that's despite subsequent attempts.

I'd love to tune in a few years from now to find armed men dragging a dirty bearded Donald J. out of a spider hole, but you know what the odds against that are.

Thanks to Sarah Kendzior for the inspiration.
