If you're familiar with Ted Rall, you know how surprising this column is.

That name sounds familiar. Didn’t he regularly say some very hateful things about GWB about a decade ago?

It is a shock to see this from him.

It’s interesting the very different people who can hear Trump’s message and see who it’s aimed at. On both sides of the political spectrum there are those who get it. All the rest have some kind of blind spot.

Not the first time I've seen him express his disappointment in democrats. Maybe he's finally had a little good sense knocked into him.

Ahem. Trump has been President for only FOUR Months and he is getting no help from ANYONE.

A backhanded slap from good old Ted Rall is still a slap.

#1. Yes. This really got my attention as I consider Ted Rall to be a conservative hating psychopath. His cartoons, if this is the same guy, were the worst I have ever seen (I saw them in the Washington Post), beating out his predecessor, the Nazi propaganda cartoons against the Jews, the Soviet’s slime in Izvestia/Tass/Pravda (and their propaganda booklets and leaflets), as well as the neo-Nazi “Thunderbolt” or “Aryan Nation”.

looks like his neighbor’s reality observations bite him in his leftist/hate-filled ass to the point that he actually came out of his far-left stupor and took notice of what was going on right down the block. Imagine that. What the Republicans/conservatives have been saying for decades WAS ACTUALLY REAL, THE TRUTH, THE REAL MCCOY.

The rotting of Dayton didn’t start yesterday. It probably started during the Clinton administrations, continued during the Bush years (Dayton was a Democrat Party stronghold so why bother with the stupid enemy), and was accelerated under the Marxist regime of Obama the Great.

Well, Ted. Perhaps you would like to revisit the “hate” that you heaped upon decent Americans, Republicans, conservatives, moderates, etc and APOLOGIZE for your Nazi-Like/Marxist-crap propaganda that posed as “cartoons”.

It is never too late to repent, or at least say that you’re sorry for the derision/hate you created, and that those you attacked were actually correct in much of what they said.

That would be a very interesting “Start” on your road back to reality which you left so long ago when Dayton was once a livable/viable city.

His cartoons showed long ago how deranged he is.

When I read the closing, I scrolled back to the top to re-check the author’s name, and wondered if it was the political cartoonist. Then I read your comment.

I find the irony of the theme “We Exist” delicious, since that’s the name of a song by a mediocre indie band named Arcade Fire singing about the terrible plight endured by gays who think everyone wants to deny their existence (as if that was possible in the modern world). I hope he did it on purpose, although it is admittedly an obscure reference.

Trump didn’t offer credible solutions. He hasn’t lifted a finger to help Rust Belters as president.

It’s been four whole months! He’s had to fight with Congress! Good grief!

Yes, I was very pleasantly surprised by how rational Ted sounds in this piece. How very strange...
