Bailout Bzzzzzz

If Trump's tariffs are not taxes paid for by Americans, and Trump's economy is doing so great that affordability is not an issue, then why do American farmers need a $12 billion bill out?

As it turns out, Trump's trade war isn't smart, and it's hurting a lot of people who support him the most, America's farmers. These farmers are still digging out from Trump's first trade war during his first term. Being that they already knew that Donald Trump was the worst president in American history, why did they support him a second time?

I put my TV on a multiview in the morning, and I watch four news channels at once. I just pick which one I want the volume set on, and I usually jump around between at least three of them. Why not out all four? Because one of them is Fox News, and I very, very rarely ever put the volume on Fox News. I just want to see what their headlines are. The other morning, my view started on Fox News, and before I could change the volume over to another station, like the BBC, I heard one of the Fox News heads talk about how the country dodged a bullet with Kamala Harris.

We did not dodge a bullet. We took the bullet right between the eyes. You have to be in denial to believe that we are “winning.”

Margolis and Cox have a cartoon blaming Biden for today's inflation, but at this time during the Biden administration, conservatives said that he couldn't blame Trump for inflation. The thing is, inflation in December 2021 and in December 2025 is both Donald Trump's fault. How much further into the Trump administration until Republicans face the truth that they can't blame Joe Biden for all their failures?

American farmers are going to need a lot more than a $12 billion bailout, especially after three more years of Donald Trump's policies. Of course, the rest of us aren't going to be receiving government checks to bail us out from the Trump disaster.

Stroke update:

I am now going to attempt to normally type “the wheels on the bus go round and round” and present it here unedited.

“the wheeis9 8h thge bys gi r9uhd and rojngdk.”

Remember, people… I'm drawing with these hands.

The current goal is for me to be able to walk to the bus station and get on the bus to rehab near the hospital, all by myself. Although I already walked to the bus station a couple of nights ago by myself, just to do it. So I guess now the goal is not to do it so slowly. I can walk across my apartment now without my cane and without the threat of falling, but it's still a lot easier with the cane. My leg and arm are still very weak. I'm doing a lot of rehab by myself.

I was going to practice again tonight and walk to the bus station when there isn’t any traffic, but it's currently 18°, and fuck that.

Creative note:

I wanted to put more locusts into this cartoon, but it was getting late, it's a Sunday, and I'm tired.
