toanoradian posted:Hillary's incoming book, "What Happened", said something roughly along that line regarding how Trump 'stalked' her during one of the presidential debates, the second one, I believe. He was doing his standard "alpha ape" routine of invading her personal space to establish "dominance." She apparently found this irritating. I'm not sure it's sexist, since he loves to do it to male politicians too.

Are British cartoonists just incapable of drawing people without turning them into broad and disturbing nightmare gargoyle caricatures? I mean you can argue the Tories are exactly that, but these guys can't even draw Jeremy Corbyn without turning him into a seagoing hobo/child molester lookalike.

I actually really like the Ancient Mariner Corbyn caricatures. It's a real Captain Ahab vibe.

Corbyn caricatures make me think of a grizzled Captain Haddock which am ok with.

The Captain Haddock part is fine, it's the "if you see this man near a school please use the confidential telephone" part that I dislike.

Okay setting aside "how can you claim to be against racism when [racist talking point]" I'm getting really sick of how Branco uses armbands to "subtly" insinuate that libs are the real fascists.

I'm not sure it's sexist, since he loves to do it to male politicians too. I'd disagree. Firstly because women politicians are expected to be demure and quiet (or get labeled a bitch) so it's not like she could've done it to him, and secondly it's still reinforcing violence and intimidation to women. Even if he does it to men the power dynamic is different.

Trump can both be a general rear end in a top hat and a sexist rear end in a top hat. In Commander Marmalade's vision, there's no difference, but why would you trust that?

Branco continues to be the worst. It's so loving reliable. We occasionally have moments of "whoa, I actually agree with Rall's point here" or "what? A Tinsley that actually made me smile?" and other broken clock moments for almost every cartoonist. But not Branco. Never Branco.

I haven't checked this thread in something like eight months, and it's bizarre to me that a nonzero amount of the shithead regulars don't seem to like Trump. True, they still have reprehensible opinions and usually just think Trump is bad PR for the GOP rather than disagreeing with him outright, but I expected ALL of them to fall in line once he became president.

Many have the, "I am bigly concerned right now" reaction that results in them still falling back in line behind the party.

There was a period of several months where most of them just ignored Trump because they couldn't say anything good about him. Even today, some of em talk more about Hillary than Trump. In August 2017.

I just expected them to be in the "TRUMP IS SUPERMAN WHO CAN DO NO WRONG" camp by now. I'm sure they'll be there soon enough as the administration faces even more criticism. Speaking of being gone for eight months, did any particularly crazy cartoonist drama happen (or, rather, is there a way for me to check if there was?) I have to get back in the loop and start reading this thread again because I'm a masochist.
