"Ka-ching!" Ha! Love it. Once again, Jimmy shifts, pivots, and changes directions. The man is a god.

The 15-years-ago-today strip (on the Flashbacks page today) with Duke suggesting a celeb golf tournament, could be run today with slight changes to include LIV, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia. History may not repeat, but it does rhyme. 

Thank you for your bravery (for 50+ years) telling the truth, even as apparently "respected" politicians claim, purport, even insist that that the sky is orange and Trump was the greatest thing to happen to American politics. I cringe even typing that in jest. Your July 31, 2022 strip, calling out the Republicans who are attempting to ride Trump's coat tails, was spot-on. My greatest fear is that ~50% of the US population seems to either totally buy Trump's fantasy, or are willing to look the other way for potential profit at the expense of our collective morals. What you do is not easy, I know that. Thank you for a half century of calling a spade, a spade. 

What, no "thousand year" Reich? Granted, that may sound extreme. But the GOP's new hero, Viktor Orbán, is pegged by one of his own (now ex-) top aides as "pure Nazi." Yes, it is that bad. Clearly, it can happen here. All the more since most newsies and pundits turn blind eyes. Thank you so much, GBT! 

The 800-pound carrion crow in the room: we're down to one non-despotic major party. While enjoying some Jimmy Crow flashbacks of late, I was hoping to see something like this; bravo!

As the GOP nominee for Governor here in PA is a card-carrying denialist, I expect he will do precisely what Jimmy Crow suggested today.

Re the 50-years-ago-today Flashback strip: nice touch that Mark drives a BMW motorcycle (mine is exactly that vintage), but GBT takes a lot of artistic liberty here: no way that is a two-stroke! Beemers are 4-stroke.

Great touch in the final frame of Sunday's strip! In a land where tobacco smoke kills about 1,000 people a day, a gun vendor waves at his arsenal with one hand while clasping a stogie in the other. Call it an assault cheroot...with a whole new meaning for the term "smoking gun."

Re Sunday's strip: I fully agree that 21 should be the age to buy guns as well as to buy alcohol. But if you are not mature enough to use alcohol or guns responsibly at 18, how can you be old enough to exercise the most important right responsibly -- that is, voting? We need to return the age of maturity, including voting and entering into contracts, back to 21. 

Thank you for suggesting how, in 2016, virtually all news outlets (not just Roland's employer, Fox News) gave free passes to Citizen Trump's right-hand man, the overtly Mussolini-mad Steve Bannon. One wonders how many of today's voters can catch the reference to Il Duce's protege, Adolf "Master Race" Hitler...and how few will be able to do so going forward.

This morning—even after I think my left hearing-aid fell from the counter and a puppy chewed it up someplace—the best Sunday episode EVER!!! I can always buy another hearing aid.

Nice of GBT to document the hiring of Jeffrey Clark in today's strip.

Aw, the ambulance-chaser got a gig after all. A feel-good strip this week!

So, Boopsie solved JFK's murder mystery! Perhaps she should have gone to law school instread of Joanie. GBT could have called the resulting anthology Legally Blonde. Boopsie's development into a less naive, wise and empathetic mother figure has been nice to see.

Thank you thank you thank you! Wow, did I need today's strip. Brutal, and absolutely spot on.

Connecting the dots between today's 5-years-ago and 30-years-ago Flashback strips: perhaps Boopsie's suit fits fine but, for medicinal purposes, she could use a hit or two of Z+Z?

Today's 30-years-ago Flashback strip is one of my all-time favourites (and there are many). Amazing how B.D. keeps his cool in the face of Boopsie's flakiness, and he even manages a bit of sarcasm (unaware, probably).

Granted, life imitates art in that, like Samantha, I smiled (thank you). The rub is that such theocrats as Palin look to be getting the last laugh. In '09, I saw roughly 2,000 future Trump-eters line up to buy (into) signed copies of her Going Rogue (which spins tales of how she fought "corruption" in Alaska). Seven years on, Donald Trump demonized Hillary Clinton as a "crooked" founder of ISIS. On 1/6/21, under a "JESUS 2020" banner (among other things), Trump-stoked divine righties came close to destroying America to "SAVE" it. Not without comic relief (thanks again), we'll do well to grasp how appeasement of democracy-smiting despots has catastrophically failed -- and to make new plans, post haste.

Today's strip brings to mind Florida Sen. Rick Scott. While he is demented, his talk about cutting Social Security now is just evil.

Oof. Today's Classic Doonesbury strip noting that the Senate is "a museum" hits even harder than it did back in '97.
