SUPPORT WTFA ON PATREON

Cat: Trump tweeted that he's, like, really smart, and called himself a very stable genius. Dog: You know what? I officially don't give a shit. Trump could tweet that he's Queen of the New York Jets and Lenny Kravitz's personal cockwasher for all I care. Poster: "Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart." Cat: You don't care that Trump forgot the words to the National Anthem on live television? Dog: we're supposed to see that Trump's a hypocrite? so? Are we also supposed to believe he's a dimwit and a dotard? Poster: "The Democrats and their lapdogs, the Fake News Mainstream Media, are taking out the old Ronald Reagan playbook and screaming mental stability and intelligence....." Cat: I get the feeling you've lost your happy thoughts. Dog: I get the feeling people are forgetting Trump isn't stupid, he's EVIL. Poster: 100 days later half of Puerto Rico has no power Good-bye DREAMers, Haitians, Salvadorans, Nicaraguans Civilian casualties from Afghan and American air strikes have risen more than 50% Coal mining deaths surge Arrests of undocumented immigrants up 38% etc

NEW COMIC TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS AND WHEN THE MOOD STRIKES

In today's installment of Did He Really Tweet That, yes, Trump did, as part of a series supposedly refuting his characterization in Michael Wolff's book, but actually embodying it.

But the problem, of course, as with Reagan, is not that he's demented or stupid, but that he's actually evil and he's getting away with it. It's extremely frustrating to see this from the sidelines.

A few examples of Trump and his administration's evil: The intentional mishandling of Puerto Rico's recovery after Hurricane Maria; removing El Salvador from the list of Temporary Protected Status countries ("by definition TPS is temporary", hope our use of piddling semantics is some comfort as your lives are destroyed again); increasing civilian casualties under new strategies in our Endless Wars; increasing deaths among coal miners; and increasing the ICE attacks on marginal communities.

This is only a rhetorical game for some of us, people.
