Hillary Clinton


Democratic Convention BINGO

Read the comic at In These Times.

The DNC started last night and only real sickos are watching the whole thing. I’m one of those sickos.

This year’s actually has some relevance, since the Harris/Walz campaign is on a much more abbreviated schedule than the usual presidential campaigns that go on for years before any ballots are cast. There will be corny stuff, because this is a convention full of party die-hards, but the contrast with the RNC’s weeklong hate-a-thon is striking, and hopefully normie voters who don’t follow all this stuff notice.

I did a similar BINGO card for the 2016 DNC for The Nib (RIP) if you’re curious. It is definitely pleasant to be drawing some new faces this time around, and hopefully I can be done drawing Trump come January 2025.

The Candidates Get Out the Vote

Candidates Get Out the VoteI drew and submitted this just before the audio of Trump’s assault comments came out, so I offer my apologies for the soft language in this cartoon.

As the election crawls into its final weeks, human toad and hot ham enthusiast Scott Walker is busy disenfranchising as many of Wisconsin’s voters as possible. Other Republicans are doing the same in their states, thanks to the Supreme Court’s gift of gutting the Voting Rights Act.

The Undecided Zone

The Undecided ZoneYou are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound, but of undecided minds. Nobody reading this is an undecided voter. They are a mystery to me, and the outcome of the election depends on the handful of them in the states that are up for grabs.

Yes, I know it’s a cookbook.

Fall TV Preview

Fall TV PreviewThere’s a lot of good television coming this fall, but I’m going to miss it to watch the final weeks of election coverage. There might be a day or two to binge-watch everything I missed before the 2020 coverage begins in earnest, but I’m not counting on it.
