April 2018 cartoon from Alt-Right dandy Ben Garrison. And you wonder why Magabomber was a thing.

As I count it, at least six of those people were targeted by bombs this week.

And yes, that is an allusion to Tony Podesta and Pizzagate, which is still apparently a thing for the alt-right.

(And on a totally different note, I will never not be left completely speechless by Garrison's idealized image of a 35 year old Donald Trump with caterpillar eyebrows. If only someone loved me that much....)

Which, to be fair, is mainly about the eyebrows.

I also found this on Twitter:

I had a thread over in DU Lounge a few months ago about how Ben Garrison has an odd notion of what Trump's hair looks like. My threads about Ben Garrison end up getting shut down.
