He has only gotten more prolific during Trumps reign of horror.

I'm sure he doesn't have time for golfing.

is that he usually right on target with the general consensus in America. Amplifies it for the art of course but the essence is there.

If you look at the entire body of his work you'd be hard pressed to determine his personal politics. Yes he tends to hammer the right more often but it's because that's where the ridiculousness is for the last 30 - 40 years But make no mistake, he's hammered the Democrats as well.

My point is that if Luckovich is cartooning Trump as a mental patient, then the general consensus in America is that Trump is not a stable person and cannot be trusted. It's mainstream, not cutting edge.

down a street, collecting his (*&% $^&) droppings since now there are so many people having to clean up after him almost daily. Then today I almost fell over when I heard Thom Hartmann suggest a cartoon of the end of a parade where the elephants are with a clean-up crew following----consisting of all the generals he's so fond of.

Had a good laugh.
