I’m with you 100%, Liza. Biden’s media operation, and that of the Democratic Party, are just terrible. They must replace it, top to bottom. It really is game over if Trump wins again. My only disagreement with you is about Niki Haley. of course, her answer to the Civil War question was deplorable. But she tried in a clumsy way to walk it back today and, in today’s Republican party I’m not sure it will be fatal, or even seriously damaging to her campaign.
I agree. I see the worst to come. The systems that balance and counterbalance the power derived from the constitution would be eliminated immediately as he grabs all of them and starts to enact his wished as he and his minions see fit for some hidden and evil agendas. It would be the end of life as we lived it before his rise to influence.
It's really quite concerning that Biden can't get more press for all he's accomplished, especially with the economy. H'e done so much in many ways but we're not hearing about any of it. GET THE WORD OUT BIDEN PEOPLE! We are always on the same page, Liza.
I couldn't be more with you. I have been through 14 presidential elections. They all mattered in their own way, but this is the one that really matters.
100%! Dems need to rally for Biden/Harris. I’m so beyond impressed with what they have accomplished. While I don’t agree with all of it, I trust they shoot for what is best for the people in this country as well as world affairs. I also see no alternative that even comes close and another Trump term would see the end of our democracy and most everything I think is important to humanity.
Yes, if Trump get off with his crimes the legal/justice system will be broken. The Righties will come out in the streets carrying their guns and all types of Nazi paraphernalia. Tiki torches and much worse.
Hopefully I won’t suffer nightmares over it, the daymares are bad enough.
They held a rally ... or tried to in Dayton, Ohio I think in 2019 ... we showed up IN DROVES so large that they got too scared to actually show up, though 17 of them did ... had to be surrounded by police and lasted about two minutes. The threat of Nazis doesn’t scare me because how this town responded, which is how America will respond. The way our media amplifies the threat and gives it credibility is reckless. But I believe this country ain’t gonna take their sh*t!
I’ve watched over them for years at progressive marches. They can act nicely to get attention then their snake persona comes out if people disagree with them.
My wish for 2024 is that dreams come true....especially yours. Yes, I don't know why the Biden people don't toot their horns more. Biden has done so much with so little and just keeping everything together during these times of upheaval proves he can make lemonade out of lemons. Plus, how can you not love him....he has a cat.... Happy Mew Year to all. Thanks for all you do especially make us laugh and make us think. xo
Sadly Biden is in a no win situation. An example is with young black voters. The NY Times published an article that said that they are alienated from Biden because he was unable to move legislation on voter rights or deal with student debt. This suggests voters are not even trying. It also explains the GOP strategy - make sure the govt fails then blame it on the Dem.
I 100% agree with you regarding Biden/Harris. I think we are often mislead by the coverage in the media. No one seems to be covering what Harris has been doing, and not really about much that Biden has accomplished. But Trump gets covered ad nauseam. Its sickening.
I think that you are correct in saying that we Dems have to get behind President Biden. I can’t imagine another tRump presidency. Democracy could be gone, executive orders could be the law of the land. One could not keep track of the lies and abuses of the system installed. He would have to be impeached again, tried for high treason and executed causing even more rancor in the MAGA CULT
Liza, you’ve hit the nail squarely on the head about Biden’s accomplishments that actually benefit many people and his lack of press coverage about what he has done. Instead, we get stupid jokes about his age. We must not let the press elect that dangerous Democracy destroyer! While we await our chance to vote, why don’t you encourage your followers to write letters to the editors not only of their local newspapers but to other, more significant ones - NY Times, Wash Post, Chicago Tribune, LA Times, Boston newspaper, etc. My local paper, the SF Chronicle, has started including letters like this.
Thanks for your thoughts, written down and shared with us, along with your thoughts and your wonderful cartoons.
Thanks, Deborah. That's a great idea. People need to get loud about this!! The press learned a bit from when Trump was elected, that he can't be covered just because he's outrageous.... but maybe not enough. It's so hard for the media not to be sucked into covering him.
Liza - Thanks for your reply to my reply - which ended with the odd pair of words, “Cheer Pomo.” I have no idea how that got there or what it means. I often end with “Cheers,” but “Pomo” is a mystery! Btw, my new New Yorker arrove yesterday and I immediately recognized your fun cartoon about the party. Keep on keepin’ on! And a Merry New Year to you and yours.

He learned a lot as president, things he would use to take power fully.

With you, Liza. Biden/Harris all the way!!! No question whatsoever.
The Christmas tree cartoon is 100/100. (Cheaper in PA but completely nuts in NYC.).

Liza, yes! The handwringing, including my own, must stop. We need to be upbeat, banging the winning drum. Biden will win.

That's a good perspective, thank you Gerard.

Free trees! My Russian Orthodox cousins always talk about how they love doing their holiday shopping on the day after Christmas.

Agree entirely. Haley’s cowardice and — not sure what to call it— about mentioning slavery should immediately disqualify her. Am beyond disgusted.
