A Pence/Ryan government is seriously more terrifying than Trump/Ryan. There's some hope that Trump's dearth of experience in politics and lack of loyalty to the Republican Party means we won't get totally hosed and a lot of time is wasted with Trump fighting with Congress to build a wall or whatever. Or just an adminstration generally mired in scandal while Republicans come up countless excuses not to impeach their great white hope. Pence is scary because it would just be clean, calculated machine of conservatism. He's also mild-mannered enough to put a happy face on the plundering of the nation, and liberals will be all "Well, he's not Trump!" There's a lot more evident fear from a cohesive Republican party. I mean, I guess Trump could cotton to executive power. he seems legit disinterested in the day-to-day work, but who knows what'll happen when he's in office. I'd say his administration is way too self-interested to let him elevate to some kind of fascist king, preferring to stab him in the back the second it'll benefit them. But Germans tried to assassinate Hitler so who the gently caress knows. I understand the whole unknown quality of Trump in office is enough reason to be scared, but I really don't like the idea of President Pence.

Welcome to... First off: no, this isn't a new thing I'm doing. However, considering that this is the last day of Obama's presidency and all, I thought it'd be appropriate to cover cartoons from his inauguration. Think of it as the epilogue to my 2008 retrospective. Passing the Torch  AI love the subtle "seven years." Hey Asay, what happened during that one year?  BNeedless to say, the country was in a thorough clusterfuck after Dubya. Two needless wars, an economic meltdown, and a dramatic increase in executive power...there wasn't really any part of the nation that Bush hadn't cocked up somehow.  CJesus.  DBush faded into the background at a lightning pace. The GOP knew he wrecked the country and, a more grievous sin, he caused them to the lose the presidency to a black man.  EI'd be remiss not to include this one. It's by far the most remembered of the "Goodbye Bush" cartoons in this thread, and the first image hit I get for "jrrose." It's also kinda correct in a very dark, foreboding way, as Trump is making Dubya seem better by comparison. One cartoon that I couldn't find, one I remember reading in the paper at the time, was one of Bush talking to Obama in the same room as two sleeping kids (probably labelled "USA" or something), with the sad-faced Bush telling Obama "keep them safe" as he handed off whatever symbol for presidential power was being used (a torch, I imagine). I thought it was a Ramirez, but all archives of his up to that date have shown nothing. The Inauguration  1Stantis was in love with his God caricature carrying the little history book. Hillary didn't get the same treatment when she took the nomination last year.  2The media loves Obama!  3The oath was flubbed during the inauguration. It was actually Roberts' slip, but some people took potshots at Obama regardless. Even more fringe characters claimed it meant Obama's presidency was illegitimate...because getting the oath right is a requirement for office, or something?  4Later Obama would just retake the oath in private. "Obama meets nation's problems as monsters" was a common theme for cartoonists.  5Allie was very upset that Obama didn't fix the economy on his first day in office.  6Purple lips from the start.  7These types of cartoons were popular, and then the cartoonist would proceed to be racist for the next eight years.  8Payne didn't let the inauguration stop him from reminding us that it was cold in January.  9Speaking of which, I love this incredibly stupid cartoon. Other Bullshit  ZPro-life cartoons came out fiercely around this time as Obama opened the blood gates.  XPeople got a bit absorbed into the whole "firsts" thing.  YI don't even know.  WMEDIA  V  UHe's...just making sure.  VWhile Hillary lost the primary, Republicans were still anguished over her selection as Secretary of State. Don't worry guys: you'll finally defeat her in eight years! And that's that. There's more, of course (and it is always worse), but that should cover most of it. It was a bit muddled because of things like the Blago scandal and cartoonists projecting their fears onto Obama (a looooot of Guantanamo cartoons, which is depressingly ironic now). Like I said, this is just a one-shot thing since it does technically conclude the whole 2008 election. Again, thanks for reading all these, and best of luck making it through the next four years.

Eden says farewell to Obama I'm sure you all fondly remember these cartoons.  I get the theme is "haha not true Obozo" but some of this stuff is true. You can't deny that Iran failed to go nuclear or especially that Obama was the one to get Osama. Unless Eden is some kind of idiot who thinks Obama meant he personally killed Osama in an honor duel.

Farecoal posted:Don't worry Trump will Also, Trump has been making very big, obvious changes that are really easy for anyone in opposition to him to rally against. With their guy Pence in charge, they can go back to quietly loving us over. It also gives them an excuse for the next billion years if you ever bring up Trump as a criticism of the party. "Ah yes, but we impeached him!" -every right-wing cartoonist until the end of time.

SexyBlindfold posted:You know, I've been thinking for a while that the one driving force behind Trump's rise to power wasn't even bigotry per se, but just pure unadulterated spite. Don't get me wrong, racism and hatred played a pretty huge part in it, but Trump's support base came to be such a rainbow coalition of overlapping and often contradictory brands of hatred (See: Kirschen / KKKlurf) that it just doesn't seem like it could stand on a leg based on racism alone without tearing itself to pieces on day one. On the other hand, the one promise that Trump can deliver on is "liberal tears". Even the dumbest loving spectator can see that Trump's erratic and vague statements mean he really doesn't stand anywhere on pretty much any issue, but the one constant is that, whatever he does, it makes liberals mad. There's plenty of cartoonists on this thread who, to this day, have barely had a single good thing to say about Trump, but they still fall into line churning out pro-Trump propaganda. The message? "see how mad these libs are". And that's it, that's the Trump platform. I don't want to get into the whole question of "Why She Lost," but rather that "Why He Won" isn't because of some rise in anti-liberal trolls.

It's been two weeks since the Trump press conference with him getting into a fight with Buzzfeed, so I'm not sure if it's coincidence or if it's been enough time for Stantis to back Trump on this and then whine about him the next day.

George Will has jumped ship, which surprised me. But I have a feeling most Never Trumpers are going to quietly back him now that he's proven his loyalty to the party agenda. Stantis seems like the only one to have fleeting moments of self-awareness.

People like Garrison who think the "global elite" (I can't help but think this is code for Jews) fear Trump will never stop being cute. Elections today are pretty much designed so you need to be in good with monied interests to have any chance to winning a primary let alone the general. Neither candidate was going to send the world bankers or whatever into a panic; I'd say they make dislike Trump if only because he's a complete amateur and plays his hand too quickly, leaving bold actions that are easy for people to see and rally against.

The edit situation is weird, because I've seen cartoonists say they want their name removed so people don't think the edit is indicative of their work. But I've also seen people say that it should stay on to give their original work credit. Although in general you shouldn't be posting edits in more public places where people can confuse an edit for original work, and in the case of this shyster guy and Bennett, it seems like he was actually trying to pass off his edits as original work. The BoK deal, however, was series of edits that were very clearly criticizing the cartoonists, and you'd have to be a pretty big dope to fail and understand that. Which is probably why BoK was the only one to raise a fuss (I think McCoy Greater made a passing comment about removing his signature).
