Donald Trump is the president I didn’t want, but now I know we need

I admit that I was wrong about Trump. He's not a clown, and he is delivering on his promises.

Glad you came aboard on this concept, Gary Varvel.

America needed a commander in chief, not a rabbi in chief

God gave us what we needed

#NeverTrumps sicken me and I could go on. If they want to get on board,I am fine with it. It is essential President Trump is re-elected.

There are entirely too many idiots like Gary Varvel who think they are everyone’s intellectual superior, who write constantly about this or that and demand that everyone follow them. Of course, folks will read what I just wrote and respond ‘hey, at least he gets it now’. My response to that is, no, he does not. Tomorrow this person will be writing again about this or that demanding that we all do what he says.

It is very simple, folks. Government should be extremely limited. Because government is not limited right now is why hillary was such a horrifying prospect as President.

I welcome (ex) Never Trumpers. They see how tings played out. Let us hope that their hubris doesn’t keep them away. We need every vote we can get.

Originally, I didn’t think Trump could pull it off either. I had been to New York City several times and could not believe that anything good could come out of that place.

When Trump announced he was running for president, I admit that I didn't take this millionaire, hotel magnate, reality TV show celebrity as a serious candidate. I doubted his ability to do the job. So I drew him as a clown....Then Trump started a war with the news media, tagging major news outlets as “fake news.” Ahem, I'm in the media. ..I found his personal attacks sophomoric. I mean, calling his opponents "Low-energy Jeb," "Lyin’ Ted," "Little Marco," "Crazy Bernie" and "Crooked Hillary" was not presidential....

That is because you were being led by your liberal nose ring to slaughter by the progs. Have you figured out where you went wrong yet, what weakness of character led you astray. There is no man blinder than one who will not see.

“I admit that I was wrong about Trump. He’s not a clown, and he is delivering on his promises.”

I’ve never seen so much HATRED in one sentence.

(how the Left sees it)

I’ve seen several of the original #neverTrumpers change their tune on other sites.

Kristols little Kult has been reduced to about a dozen “principled” whiners

And Trump picks up even more voters.

(I’ve noticed the change in Varvels cartoons recently)

This will make it tough for Varvel, since the Indy Star he creates for has an editorial page that looks like it has Democrat Underground droolers writing all of the op-eds

We don’t need to be friends with them. Just ask “what the hell took you so long?” and walk away.

Mark Levine, seem to be the type that was paid to play approved opposition (GOPe) from the beginning.

Wonder who’s paying him now?

Politics makes strange bed bugs....or something to that effect.

Look, if ex-Never-Trump-maybe-not-never-Trumpers help DJT get re-elected, AND THAT enables Trump to name replacements for Ginsburg and Breyer or whoever, I will chance the stings.

For those not familiar with GoComics.com, they have a section of Political Cartoons, which helpfully marks those which have just been updated (since most cartoonists don't produce a new one every day).

Varvel's one for today is about Trump's jobs wand. He had one yesterday mocking the Democrats for their healthcare for illegals.

GoComics.com is free.
