Of course Trump always chickens out. He formed a cult of cowards who all scream their cowardice every time they get together and natter about how "those others" will destroy them. Cowards all.
Judy- I’m concerned about the planned protests. I think it’s a trap. He will put in Maggots impersonating us who will cause a riot so he can declare martial law. The Repugs cannot afford to let us get to the mid-terms. I’m thinking we should “boycott”, not “protest.” Or plan our own parade somewhere else.
I think it's a reasonable concern. None of us really knows how it will all pan out that day. It could be all our fears amount to a big nothing burger--or not. The best approach is probably to avoid the parade itself--ignore it--while holding our own events everywhere else. Taco dance lines in every major city! 🌮🎉 Sí sí sí!
You're probably right, avoid the parade and protest near home like we have been doing. I still like the idea of dressing as a taco to protest/demonstrate
Right!!!!! If we don’t show up- it will be just like his first inauguration. (Except that the streets of DC will be all ripped up because they can’t bear the weight!!!!)
I was fearing this for a previous mass protest, but this parade is such an "in your face" assault on American values that it will likely be a very large protest and will have the military right there on hand to be used. Will they honor their oath to the constitution or not?
I still have one of the T-shirts with the Taco Bell chihuahua on it. 😄
Loved the chihuahua. (I lost 2 of them in 2011 and 2024. Now have Nomi - see the avatar - she's a chihuahua something, terrier I think - she has a rough coat.) But I like Del Taco much more. I LOVE the Del double cheeseburgers and the fish tacos.
Thanks for the recap and photos from yesterday's awards. I enjoy reading about your adventures, whether traveling the world or hanging out with colleagues at an event. As for the cartoon, is it too early to predict tacos as this year's popular Halloween costume?
Waiting for a reporter to have the nerve to ask him why he is killing a 4-yr-old die instead of being treated in the hospital where she's been for months.
Simply because it makes a lot of noise, far more than it would if his gestapo raided one of THE KNOWN SITES where thousands of undocumented are hired. Of course, it helps if you don't call ahead and warn all the MAGA's, like they DID KID ROCK'S PLACE IN NASHVILLE!
It would take an absolute FOOL to not notice that nearly all the ICE activity is in either BLUE states or BLUE areas in red states! Funny how they'll raid blue Germantown but not red Covington. They could pick up tens of thousands in a week! Most illegals are hired in RED STATES because that's where the agriculture and by product processing is!
Trump doesn't want anyone but wonks to notice that he's deported fewer than Biden by any measure. 65,682 deportations for Trump in his first 100 days, Biden deported almost exactly TEN TIMES that many in his last year in office, nearly as many per month as Trump did in more than three months. Trump is a failure at EVERYTHING!
Give it a while, he'll declare victory and go back to doing the funky chicken, or whatever that was, instead of answering questions.
Women's March (not just for women) is holding protests all over the country on June 14th. They have held several nationwide protests before and since Pharaoh Cheato took office. A few loud counter protesters were there, but no violence. The challenge is to get the media to cover the protests, not just the Big Orange Chicken.
Great toon, Clay! And it looks like you all had a great time. Btw, got my stickers and they're great! Wonderful quality, great color, and good thickness! Well done, my friend!
After seeing this the other day, and even knowing I’m gonna hide at home on 14 June, I found a great TACO headband on Etsy where there are tons of TACO stuff, my fave are the “LET’S GO TACO” ones, you know like they did to Joe. [Who was it that reported TACO’s Lying Social post that Joe Biden was assassinated in 2020 & replaced by robotic clones? ]
I thought I felt thr earth skaking last night. Clay wearing a suit must have been the cause.
Love this toon and everything about this blog. Good to see you having fun!
I think Trump has a tiny taco. So very tiny.
Of course Trump always chickens out. He formed a cult of cowards who all scream their cowardice every time they get together and natter about how "those others" will destroy them. Cowards all.
“Tiny Taco!” You’re killing me!!!!
To cap this cartoon off it would be great if a group of dancing tacos actually showed up to the parade or at the planned protests! LOL
You cartoonists clean up pretty well.

Am I crazy?

Oh, absolutely! 🌮🌮🌮 The concern raised was about location, not the costume idea. Keep calm and taco on!
Right!!!!! If we don’t show up- it will be just like his first inauguration. (Except that the streets of DC will be all ripped up because they can’t bear the weight!!!!)
I think you're giving them credit for being sane and smart, when all the evidence says they are crazy and stupid.
I think you may have something there! Thanks!!!!

Could just have a bunch of tanks with taco magnets on the sides away from Trump, so they'd be sure to be in all the press pictures.
Love the Chihuahua!

Hey Clay- you clean up pretty nicely!
Big "No Kings" rally in Philadelphia on June 14 to avoid clashing with the parade in DC. https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/784463/?emci=6e786316-d53c-f011-a5f1-6045bda9d96b&emdi=f61a5781-d93c-f011-a5f1-6045bda9d96b&ceid=2595262

Where's Rat? Looked all over and I couldn't find him. I thought for sure he'd be hiding in one of the tacos.
The toon was great. Loved the tie!
Being pressed for time, I totally forgot Peezy. Sorry!
Great toon, Clay! And it looks like you all had a great time. Btw, got my stickers and they're great! Wonderful quality, great color, and good thickness! Well done, my friend!
Thank you.
Such fun!
It's always great to see you.
Oh, btw- great photos, Clayton!
Robert Armstrong must have been channeling Vlad Putin when he came up with "TACO". (I wonder how that translates to Russian...)
