Lame Duck

If it quacks like a lame duck… Cartoon published 11/13/2024 President Trump is meeting with Biden today at the White House, thus marking Trump’s triumphant return. We expect Joe to be amicable, but what will be going through his dementia-riddled head? We show it here in today’s cartoon. Trump is the first president since Grover Cleveland to have split terms and it never should have happened. The Democrats used and abused mail-in balloting to force Joe into office. Biden magically received 81 million votes—far more than even Obama. Notice how Kamala didn’t get anywhere near that. Maybe the Democrats realized Trump had too big of a lead and their cheating would be too obvious. Regardless, we hope the transition goes smoothly. There is a law called the Presidential Transition Act and it lays out guidelines for the transfer of power. Let’s hope it doesn’t get complicated by Joe stepping down early and giving the presidency to Harris. We doubt that will happen because Jill must be steaming over how her husband was forced to withdraw from the race. Jill must be even more irate that she was snubbed by Melania, but we can’t blame Trump’s wife because Joe ordered the FBI to raid Mar-a-Lago and rifle through her underwear drawer. Let’s hope the Biden family (and Kamala too) makes sure they retrieve any loose bags of cocaine hanging around before they leave. — The GrrrTeam
