Everyone needs to pay very particular attention to what trump is saying here. As @robertreich is always saying: trump tells you what he is - just listen
I am glad that Trump is stupid enough to broadcast his evil intentions to everyone. It makes it easier to convince people not to vote for him in 2024..
Tim: good point! I have the same thoughts. The only time I worry, is when a person who has drunk the Kool aid comes in to my shop parroting ideas pushed on Fox"news" , and they are convinced that certain people should be restricted from voting, because they enable the deep state, and the criminal immigrants and the "others". What they do not seem to know, is history, and how they too, can inevitably, be on the wrong side of that 'voting' bloc. Even if they can't get pregnant, or are not one of the "undesirables" on the current $#it list.
If they have been listening to Fox for any amount of time the common sense part of their brain has been fried... so pointing out the truth to them really won't help. I just tell them that after they lose their Social Security and Medicare don't come crying to the DEMs to save them.
Tim, if that were true, we would not see such close polls. People do not absorb his lies as lies, but believe it as truths. So they will not be able to see past that statement and question, does he mean we will never vote again as he will be a dictator, and authoritarian? And to those of us who question both sides as we should, that answer is, yes, and so our reasoning then points us away from his lies and to the dedication to saving democracy and continuing the work of making it more perfect. (Which it will never be, but without working on it, it will not BE at all). For me that statement by him begging for the Christian’s to vote one last time was bone chilling.
Scary as hell, which it will be if enough "believers" can make the difference that allows him to "win". He actually IS disabled and should have been disqualified by a court that is similarly so. That is another battle if this tragedy happens. 😢 I intend to fight. But I have great hope and believe that the majority of voters know enough not to vote for him and Vance.
Tim - “like” As much as I dislike even hearing his voice I still want him to talk because each time he does he usually shoots himself in the foot (or ear) (too soon?).
Wow! that is scary and disgusting! there is a dangerous psychotic, with "narcissistic egocentricity and a failure of empathetic, sympathetic identification with others." An extreme sort of Psychopath.
If you're "like" function isn't working you might try switching browsers, that's what worked for me. I'm using duckduckgo now, but in talking to other people about this problem browsers that did work for some people didn't work for others. When I tried switching from Firefox to Chrome that didn't work.
G G - “like” I have always used DuckDuckGo because I trust it more than the other browsers but I have tried your suggestion when you offered it before when my like button stopped working four to six months ago. I deleted/erased everything that I had and switched to a different one and when the problem persisted I quickly went back to DuckDuckGo. I use an iPad that is getting kind of old so I don’t know if that is the cause of my loss of my ability to like posts. I am just happy that I can still reply to people though. I appreciate you taking the time again to reach out to offer a suggestion and if I can afford to get a new iPad and I get my like button ability back I will definitely let you know (as well as others since thankfully/unfortunately I am not alone). I still go to the chatbot on substack and report it but at this point I don’t think it is really letting anyone know. :(
My father took lessons from Burl Ives! He played an autoharp. I remember these lyrics: "When I was a bachelor, I lived all alone, I worked at the weaver's trade. And the only only thing I did that was wrong was to woo a fair young maid." (Sorry, no relevance to Bob's cartoon captions. I like most of the ones already submitted.)
My mom had Burl Ives recordings. The one I remember was about the "cute little house where grandmother dwells. " a hole in the window, that nice little window, that cute, little window where grandmother dwells." just a snippet of the song. "Two little devils were playing handball" , and the ball went through the window.
He had a soothing gentle voice; was kind of grandfatherly; nostalgic. As a young child , I was not as aware of any political messages from what I heard.
"Stop on red ; go on green Don't you get caught by Mr., in between". is an excerpt from "Candyman" as sung by Dave Van Ronk. I used the word for my adolescent status as who I was as not quite a teenager, when I wrote 'tween". At that age, I did not know of Dave Van Ronk ; it was just an age between single and double digits; or grade school and high school.
I don't remember that one. My mother had quite a few recordings of everyone ; instrumentals, too ; like Xavier Cougat (spelling?) She sang in the Young @heart Chorus around the country and the world. Patsy Linderme, known as Patsy.

Horrifying to say the least. Now if he could convince them NOT to vote, we'll do the rest.
It is not convincing them not to vote, There are no votes in a dictatorship. If he wins, he says that there will be no more elections.
Of course, but grammatically it still works. Democratically, far less so.
He may be doing just that in the near future, thanks to Kamala calling him out on all his vile rhetoric!
Everyone needs to pay very particular attention to what trump is saying here. As @robertreich is always saying: trump tells you what he is - just listen
You Win!
Hands down, here is the winner!!
love this one!
First step:send you back home to Mar a Lago
Next: Save America by passing laws to protect democracy from all future Trump wannabes
We’ll make American great with Kamala
She will represent all of us! Even those who vote for Trump.
Although it’ll take Longer than I’d like. We all know now that you’re MAGA hat came with a preamble: “After Trump it will take a decade to…“

He meant the Project 2025 plan is all set up and ready to go.
But he claimed he didn’t know anything about it including who’s behind it.
He's saying he won't be a dictator for just one day . . .
Margaret--It all depends upon how a day is to that freak.
He’s never going to be a dictator.
is that lie # 3,489 or #3,490?

I remember it well. In 1966, I was a 'tween.
also a great old song by burl Ives,'mr. in-between'
My father took lessons from Burl Ives! He played an autoharp. I remember these lyrics: "When I was a bachelor, I lived all alone, I worked at the weaver's trade. And the only only thing I did that was wrong was to woo a fair young maid." (Sorry, no relevance to Bob's cartoon captions. I like most of the ones already submitted.)
a great story,Ann-did he interact with you?you play?
I had no interaction with Ives, myself. I don't play autoharp (I wish I knew what became of it); but I do play the recorder.
a great story and memory,Ann-did he interact with you?you play?
My mom had Burl Ives recordings. The one I remember was about the "cute little house where grandmother dwells. " a hole in the window, that nice little window, that cute, little window where grandmother dwells." just a snippet of the song. "Two little devils were playing handball" , and the ball went through the window.
he was a famous folksinger,liberal activist,a few pop hits in the 60s,then-the voice of Christmas
He had a soothing gentle voice; was kind of grandfatherly; nostalgic. As a young child , I was not as aware of any political messages from what I heard.
