SUPPORT WTFA ON PATREON

Hippo: Trump passed his promised ban on Muslims from certain countries entering the U.S. and WOW, did America lose its shit. It's enough to make one hopeful again. Hippo: Mass gatherings at airports demanding release of banned travelers, denunciations across media, and nothing but the few plaintive bleatings of Trump's rump parliament of voters in favor. Now, if you'll excuse me....

NEW COMIC TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS AND WHEN THE MOOD STRIKES

With the proverbial stroke of his pen, Trump forbade the citizens of certain Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States (although he somehow overlooked countries with which he has business dealings) causing chaos as the executive order ended up applying to people who were still in transit and thus got stuck at airports and such.

The speed at which Trump's administration managed to fuck over so many people was dizzying—we barely had time to register what he was doing before all hell broke lose. But the speed at which we the people responded was also amazing: Lawyers showed up and began drafting habeas corpus petitions in airports while enormous crowds of protesters gathered and the entire Twittersphere erupted in condemnation. Except for a few pathetic assholes with the word deplorable somewhere in their handles, who continued to exult in the chaos and repeated how Trump had won the election and everyone should get over it.

Fuck those guys. They're not winning.
