No see the new spin is that since Trump Jr dropped the e-mails on his own he was simply correcting the evil media who would obviously lie and furthermore faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart

Because the word "email" is involved, most conservatives on twitter have already redoubled their pointing at Hillary to avoid thinking, and I expect most of the hacks to do the same.

I fully expect at least one "wow, politicians sure do get in trouble with emails a lot!" cartoons in the next couple days.

I wonder if there were any political cartoons when e-mail first started being a thing showing sad postal workers and saying it would make everyone lose their jobs.

Me, holding a newspaper the size of my entire body whose headline (on the back page) reads "HILLARY CLINTON, DONALD TRUMP JR EMBROILED IN EMAIL SCANDAL" as the words "You've got mail!" are spoken by a nearby CRT computer monitor: "I can think of a few politicians who probably wish they DIDN'T have mail! :smug:"

SCENE: I am a middle-aged bald white man wearing a polo shirt. My Gateway 2000, its gigantic CRT screen filled entirely by the America Online logo, is making a voice say "You've got mail!" in a really technology-looking digital blocky font and lightningy speech bubble. My child, who looks pretty much exactly like The Beaver from Leave It To Beaver, enters the room. "Your new Star Trek fan newsletter?"

"No," I reply, the smarmiest expression imaginable on my face, "the latest political scandal out of Washington DC! :smug:"

Nearby on the ground a gigantic discarded newspaper reads "POLITICIANS ALL ACROSS WASHINGTON DC GETTING IN TROUBLE BECAUSE OF THEIR EMAILS" in huge font across both its front and back pages

e: I am sitting in an overstuffed chair. The dog is sleeping nearby but perks up its ears and grins at my witticism.

DJT, Jr., Jared Kushner, and Paul Manafort met with a Russian lawyer with ties to the Kremlin because she promised them damaging info on the Clinton campaign. Trump II basically tried to deny this by saying it did happen but was a ruse to get him to talk about Russian adoptions.

That's yesterday's news. It got worse.

Jr was informed the press had the emails so he panicked and did the genius act of tweeting out the emails himself, assuming they would absolve him.
Except...


He tweeted this. This happened.

I love that Stantallie switched to "there's no proof, you're all insane and biased for daring to criticize Trump" right before Trump's son tweeted proof of Russian collaboration. And thanks to the two week delay they're probably going to continue as the story gets worse and worse.

If Rall was in Nazi Germany he'd be complaining about the Jewish police chief during the Wiemar Republic that slightly inconvenienced him and crowing on about how great it is he and that Judge are going to a concentration camp.

You never have to ask "is this thing that might be a drone a drone?" in a Rall piece. It's always a drone.

I'm conflicted. Usually I wouldn't second guess something in a Rall cartoon being a drone, but in this case his art is so bad that I genuinely can't tell. It's like a red frisbee with pinwheels stuck to the bottom and I guess a camera of some sort on the top?
