Great cartoon & blog! It's amazing all the crap they've come up with to 'explain away' his performance (they think). The whole earring thing was crazy! Well, all of it is crazy! He's just the worst loser ever. It reminds me of my little brother when he was kid! I was watching MSNBC just now (Nicolle Wallace's show) and someone mentioned how he has none of his usual support around him anymore - no favorite daughter and son-in-law, Beavis and Butthead haven't been around, Melania, lots of friends are locked up or just not around, etc. He hung out at the 9/11 memorial with Laura Loomer, of all people! He's really going downhill fast. I was glad to hear on the news today that they're taking some extra security measures for 1/5/25, altho I missed most of the details. But clearly they plan on being better prepared this time around. God only knows what all the nuts will do this time. I'll be glad when we're past that date, I think.

He also went to the spin room afterwards which candidates never do apparently. Usually their representatives go to answer questions and put the best spin they can on the performance. I am watching/reading too much of this stuff 😂

I should have included that detail.

That's okay, you are a busy man but we're here to help. Did you hear about RFK Jr's shenanigans in North Carolina causing major ballot issues? Slate made it sound more dire but this is from a North Carolina paper

Cat balloon was a nice touch.

Cowbell sounds about right. Or maybe dinosaur farts.

The joke making the rounds is that Texas AG Paxton is going to file charges of elder abuse against Harris, because she beat Trump like a drum.

Anyhow, now we know his plan for losing, according to Vanity Fair, he's told Musk he plans to flee to Venezuela afterwards. I wonder if the DOJ will stop him, or just wave goodbye to all the problems he's caused.

Never mind. It's true. He said it, and to Elon of all people. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/trump-suggests-hell-flee-to-venezuela-if-harris-wins-the-election

I can't take credit for that one. It's been around for a while.

What stuck with me was when he was being fact checked by David Muir about immigrants eating pets, he replied, "Well I saw it on TV".

Then later when he went out to speak to the press and lied about winning and polls, I saw a man who believed what he said in the face of reality. Who can say he doesn't have dementia?

I can't say he has dementia. Also, I can't say he doesn't have dementia.

If only he'd stay in bed, his numbers might improve.

The funniest/weirdest of all the things I have heard and read about the debate is that some people are still undecided. Seriously...WTF??? (apologies if that is inappropriate)

This just in - I reviewed the video footage of the incident with the truck and I think I the tag number was KDH-TJW-47 - there might have been another number either a 4 or an 8.....
