CARTOON: “Bernie’s Pretty Little Unicorn”

From cartoonist Clay Jones on “Bernie’s Pretty Little Unicorn,” gangsters, and how Bernie Sanders stole Hillary Clinton’s thunder

I went a little Godfather on you here. After seeing that iconic scene when I was a kid, I’ve always thought that would be one of the most horrible ways to wake up. I’ve always wondered how it would be accomplished. I think that if gangsters crept into my bedroom in the middle of the night with a chopped-off horse head, I wouldn’t sleep through it.

I went with the unicorn here because I think most people will understand the mythical creature has been associated with Sander’s promises. They are mythical, right?

Bernie was supposed to be put away the other night. Instead, he defied the pollsters and stole Michigan away from Hillary. I’m sure that doesn’t chafe only Hillary but the entire Democratic Party establishment. Let’s be real. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and the rest of the leadership want Hillary in place and ready for the Republican nominee. Bernie has the gall to slow that down, and he’s not even a Democrat.

Hillary will win the nomination, but the discussion we’re having now is great for democracy.

Short blog post again, folks. I’m still a bit under the weather but I feel better today than I did yesterday. I’m actually drinking coffee again.
