I understand your point, but also consider that this is a case where the two are not neatly equivalent.

So if you don't like it that's your right, as it is also our right. But to conflate two people who act like monkeys to the racism directed at the Obama family is to have very shallow understanding.

I don't know who first said he makes the same faces as chimpanzees, but it stuck like shit in shag carpet.

Personally I like this pic

I wonder if it would be an effective ad to have back to back clips of Drumpf giving opposite opinions and asking Which Donald do you support?

That this would be great ad material. Done as a satirical piece.

Vote Trump! He has TWICE as many positions as Hillary! And then show a graphic much like the boxes in this strip.

What a great satire! They say people like trump are hard to satirize, but he did it.

The art is very good also.

I had a post removed for disagreeing that Obama was the most liberal president ever.

seriously, and I wasn't being an ahole about it, either, just suggested that there were other, more liberal ones, IIRC

I don't even think he can formulate a thought on a real issue. So he resorts to how great he is and insulting the opposition.
