Thanks for posting how least amusing this collection is, I had no idea Liberal Editorial Cartoonists could
be so revolting to some fellow DUers I consider friends.

So I'm going to consider taking a 2 week break from posting "Least amusing" crap while I regroup and
attempt to find new Liberal Editorial Cartoonists that DUers will find funny.

Meanwhile feel free to take over posting the daily cartoons so I'll learn what's funny and what isn't.
Thanks in advance for your help.

6. And how about taking that attitude of yours and backing off, just a little?

I myself have been a DU member for more than 23 years. And I was making a statement of fact, not a critique: It's obvious that this nation is in the most perilous circumstances since the Civil War, so why wouldn't the political cartoons be so grim?

Yes, really...

Yes, the cartoons are depressing, but the subject matter is beyond depressing, often horrifying. And those brave (insane?) enough to be political cartoonists are amazing for distilling the horror into viscerally understood images.

Bless them, and you.

10. Political cartoons have always existed to skewer somebody or some thing.

Meanness is in their DNA. And the current mass hallucination that a president has been elected is particularly worthy of being savaged. (Something's been elected, but, not a president.) The cartoonists are dealing with the reality they see, and we cartoon fans are impressed by their artistic skill, their ability to make a point with a few strokes of their pens, and their puncturing of pomposity.

To complain to cartoonists about the mood their little sermons put us in is to blame them for a situation they're not responsible for. The cartoonists are calling them as they see them, and I'm glad to have their two cents.

Thanks very much for gathering toons for us all as often as you do.

18. These are political cartoons, & there's a lot of sad-but-trueness out there. Nonetheless I still got a few chuckles...

We look for you every day, KST.

All I can say to this one is YIKES, as the cartoonist got a lot of details quite right.


This is a blast from the past, for sure


Too true. Elect a clown, get a circus


Finally, ETTD, in spades…. Everything Trump Touches Dies
