This is what anyone gets from having faith in Lydon.

cant cook creole bream posted:It's kind of a weird dynamic between those four. While Audrey isn't really loyal to Trixie, Clara certainly is. And from what I've seen Audrey tries to support her sister as best as she can, so she's been loyal by association so far. But now that she has a really good offer, she'll gladly sell Trixie out. But Clara will be incredibly disappointed when she finds out about this. Clara will be disappointed but alive, as far as Audrey's concerned Trixie has been the problem for a while now

Lyndon was so close to not being an idiot gently caress up.

There is absolutely no reason for the Traditionalists to keep their promise to Audrey, either. Unless Trixie wins, Audrey has no connections to demand they uphold the bargain, and if anyone but the Traditionalists win, there's not even a verbal agreement in place to make Audrey foreign minister. The Traditionalists probably can prove that Audrey agreed to sell Trixie out, though, and they can use that to continue to blackmail Audrey and possibly Lyndon. All in all, a terrible deal to make.

Well, no, but there is the whole 'murdering people with a big sword and not thinking the consequences through' thing Audrey has going on.

They could just send a vice president to break the news to her, but I don't imagine they'd have much reason to lie to her either. The political structure in Diabolica seems to be "do what the president says and you'll get paid", which is certainly fine with Audrey as far as foreign affairs goes.

They have a reputation to keep. If word gets out that they bribed someone and didn't follow through, they wouldn't be able to bribe the next person. Besides, "willingness to personally pull off a dumb, risky scandal" is apparently the president's only criteria for filling positions.

By far the best ending was The Accidental Space Spy where they just dropped him off back on Earth and were like "welp bye" and then the comic was over.

"Moose hive found", followed by, "Moose honey taste awful". Got to admire that they actually tried it

It took 21 days between the discovery of the moose hive and the discovery that moose honey tastes awful.

They had to figure out a way to pacify the moose and overcome the royal moose guard and moose queen to get at the moose honey

So there are at least nine candidates in the election now, or a significant 'I'm not voting for any of these yahoos' contingent.
|

Nine candidates, they've done the "split the opposition support" trick three times. It's impressive that the Traditionalit's suck so hard that they've also managed to lose support each time they've done this.

Because they're sacrificing the key single issue voter vote.

The really amazing part is that none of the schemes from last strip involved killing the vice president. He made it through three whole weeks as VP, but they're totally gonna break that streak after this.

Soon it'll be everyone running for president, and the winner will be the candidate with two votes.

Thorsby is lining things up for a brutal evisceration of first past the post where the winning party is eventually elected on, like, 0.8% of the vote.

Literally everyone in the country runs for president and then Lyndon's big character-defining moment is when he chooses whether to give his vote to Audrey or Trixie, because he knows whichever one he votes for will win with 2 votes.
