A post on The Daily Cartoonist.
Only the first two or three are about Trump or politics in general. The rest is about family stuff, writing, money management, sportsball stuff, and driving stuff.
And in response to this preposterous dumbfuckery that was linked to in the above post, I'll just leave the same quote here (which also sits in my Dreamwidth profile) that I left over there on The Daily Cartoonist:
"The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else."
-- Theodore Roosevelt, The Kansas City Star - May 7, 1918
