Apologies, Iowa, but I just don’t see the point of starting the election year with a caucus in your state. It’s confusing people. I know I’m confused. What did we learn from the caucus? Why don’t we start with a contest in a state that represents the demographic of our country?
The results of the caucus last night went as expected, but that won’t stop Trump from making it bigger than it is.
What if Nikki Haley wins the New Hampshire primary? Trump will lull voters again with lies and bravado and claim he’s persecuted. Is it time for Liz Cheney to announce her third party candidacy? Will she be the answer for Republicans who can’t stomach Trump?
This whole thing is nuts. We cannot relax.
I read an article the other day about cozy soup. My cartoonist brain thought there was something in the phrase. So, as I often do when a word or term interests me, I look it up, searching for a way to use it. I’m looking for meaning, synonyms, urban usages. It stimulates the imagination.
Merriam-Webster online dictionary had some definitions; 2 and 3 were familiar to me and intrigued me.
2: Marked by or suggesting close association or connivance; “a cozy agreement”
“His political opponents accused him of getting too cozy with powerful companies.”
3: Marked by a discreet and cautious attitude or procedure; “a cozy waiting game”
So I drew this.
Does this drawing have anything to do with the current political climate? Maybe a certain politician?
Happy Tuesday, see you tomorrow.
I woke up this morning, hoping the long nightmare I've been having would be over. Nope. I still and never ever ever will figure out how in the world this clown got to where he is. I mean, really? It started out as a joke, but there is nothing funny about him anymore. He's like the clown in a scary movie. Sad part is, it's real and not fiction. I hope Cheney does jump in; God knows we need her. And I really shudder when I hear "God sent Trump." Talk about blasphemy. Sometimes, it's all too much to absorb. Anyway, sorry for the rant. Keep drawing....please.
Aha, I suspected my kitchen appliances were up to something. They’re forming a cozy cabal! (Liza, I love your cartoon. But now I’m gonna have to set up a security camera in my own kitchen.)
