The Year in Review (Part Two)
For roughly the billionth time, Donald Trump is accused of being a bigot after issuing a policy decision (on Twitter, unsurprisingly) that transgender people shouldn’t serve in the military. Why? Because transgenders generally have ongoing medical conditions and needs which can’t be treated in the field, potentially putting others at risk. Despite this entirely logical position, those on the Left scream in outrage (as is their wont) and ask for someone, anyone, to make sense of how the country has fallen into this low and hate-filled state. And guess who claims to have the answer…? |
One liberal protester was killed after being struck by a car, and the media immediately blamed the tragic death on Donald Trump’s theoretical (albeit nonexistent) embrace of Nazis and the KKK. In general, the mess was considered a complete success by the Left because they got to beat the hell out of a bunch of white people and they could claim the moral high ground because of one death. All in all, it was a dark day for America. But not as dark as it was going to get… Americans basically lost their minds over the prospect of experiencing a total eclipse of the sun, during which they could stand in a moon shadow (which was a darn good song by pre-Islam Cat Stevens) and stare directly at the sun to discover the wonder of burning holes in your retinas by wearing cheap knockoff Chinese eclipse glasses. News channels excitedly covered the event live, proclaiming it to be a “once in a lifetime” event which won’t happen here again for, uh, 7 years. Which is about as much of a “once in a lifetime” event as August somehow turning into… September – |
And maybe let them stay in one of your three homes? |
Likewise, Leftists like Bernie Sanders jumped on the bandwagon despite the checkable fact that the President was inundating Puerto Rico with aid…and the mayor in question was a Hillary-supporting whackjob.
Yes, that’s really Matt Lauer. No, we don’t know if Al Franken ever touched him inappropriately. |
Not that it was the biggest thing that stuck in certain women’s throats…
Just ask Al Franken. |
The House and Senate passed a sweeping tax reform bill without garnering a single Democrat’s vote, despite the fact that the plan offers billions of dollars in tax savings to middle class families and a generous increase in benefits to any family with children – constituencies the Democrats claim to speak for.
This is the Hope n’ Change cartoon we waited nine years to write. |
As this crazy year sputtered to an end with the Left seemingly in ruins, a lone social justice warrior decided to raise his voice in protest against the madness which had seemingly engulfed America. He chose an act which would be seen by the entire world, and draw immediate comparisons to the brave soul who faced down a column of tanks in Tiananmen Square.
We’re talking, of course, about the dolt who shot video of himself shouting at a Donald Trump robot in the Disney World “Hall of Presidents” attraction…
