Anyone know what "Five Freedoms" he's quoting here? Or is Trump already proposing rewriting the 1st Amendment and I missed it under the deluge of shitholes, porn stars, F-52s, and fake missile launch alerts?

I was about to say I admired that the cartoonist respected his audience enough not to label Bannon, trusting that people who follow politics don�t need such obvious references explained. Then I saw that they labeled the soapbox �soap.� :eng99:

Yeah, its a reference to a literal wooden box used to ship soap. There's probably an alternate universe where preaching is "from the fruit crate."

So the Democrats are racist because... honestly I don't know what the implication here is. I'm guessing it's "Democrats offer free stuff, but only to minorities, and it's to get votes, therefore THEY are the real racists."

I like how trump is ostensibly the good guy here, but he can't actually print his quote because the man is such a garbage fire.
And personally I had read the free stuff and voter drive as the FReep talking point of dems importing voters from abroad.

When I read the paper yesterday morning I knew we were in for a MSM s***storm. That�s because on page A4, in a story headlined Trump Vulgarity Roils DACA Deal, The Wall Street Journal said �shithole.�

As in:

�President Donald Trump questioned why the U.S. would admit people from �shithole countries��

And that was in the lead sentence. Then they did it again in the third sentence. And again in this morning�s paper:

The fate of young undocumented immigrants was in doubt and the odds of a government shutdown appeared to be growing in the wake of President Donald Trump�s dismissal of �shithole countries� in Africa and his rejection of a bipartisan proposal to aid the so-called Dreamers.

Trump also wanted to know why we don�t import people from Norway instead of Haiti. Norway, for its part, said it didn�t want to come here.

I haven�t been to Haiti so I can�t say if Trump�s assessment is accurate. But one man�s s***hole can be another man�s money pot. That is if you�re the Clinton Foundation doing good deeds in Haiti.

I have been to Djibouti, Africa and the president may be on to something there.

Trump made his colorful comments during a closed bipartisan meeting to work out a DACA agreement. The day before he held a televised bipartisan meeting and uttered many nice words. In that meeting he said he�d sign any bill brought to his desk.

But back to the bad words. CNN would not be outdone. Gateway Pundit which apparently is an avid watcher, says CNN said S***hole 36 times on Thursday night.

Pussyhat, on the other hand, long ago entered the media vernacular. Right around the time Madonna pondered blowing up the White House.

And it took Bess Truman 25 years to get Harry to say manure.

Bok, the problem isn't the fact that the president swore, it's the fact that he doesn't want any immigrants from African countries and wants them from White countries instead.

This akin to the Asay method, wherein the "artist" (quotes added because... well... Branco) depicts somehting that most people would see as harmless/self-evident but fully expects his intended audience to react with forthing rage.

Like yeah, a hypothetical Oprah presidency would probably continue with much the same policies as the Obama presidency, and considering Obama's numbers most americans would be fine with that.

INDIANAPOLIS � A new round of layoffs is taking effect this week at the Carrier Corp. factory in Indianapolis a little more than a year after President Donald Trump touted a deal that staved off the plant's closure and saved some of its jobs.

About 215 people are being let go starting Thursday, leaving about 1,100 workers at the plant, according to the company. That's down from the some 1,600 factory, office and engineering jobs at the facility when Carrier announced plans in early 2016 to move production to Mexico.

This week's previously announced layoffs follow about 340 job cuts at the factory in July.
