From cartoonist Clay Jones about ‘A Republican Promise,’ the latest Republican debate, and the need to possibly reconsider term limits
Other than the ten-minute argument between Trump and Cruz over birtherism and New York values, what you can get from the latest Republican debate is that they promise to get rid of Obama. The only way to sum up the rest of the debate is that they’re all idiots.
Jeb Bush says the country is worse now than before Obama became president. He must be thinking of his brother’s tenure in the Oval Office. Osama is dead, gas prices are under two bucks a gallon, and we still have an automobile industry. Also, employment is up, and the rate of government spending has slowed down greatly.
They still don’t understand the U.S. military is the strongest in the world.
They’re promising that if Iran ever takes U.S. sailors hostage again that they’ll get them released quicker than ten hours, which is what Obama did.
Some want to ban all Muslims from entering the country, and others only want to ban some Muslims.
They still hate brown people. They still love guns and God. Rubio said our rights come from God, not the government.
All of the candidates are running against Obama, despite Obama leaving office next January. Chris Christie made the dumbest statement of the night, which is quite an achievement considering there were other Republicans on stage, including Ben Carson. Christie said, “I hope the President is watching tonight because here’s what I’d like to tell him. We are going to kick your rear end out of the White House come this fall.”
Christie, you’re not kicking anybody anywhere. Obama is leaving in January whether a Republican wins the White House or it goes to Bernie or Hillary. I expect by the next debate, Christie will be kicked to the kids’ table.
These guys should be grateful Obama is limited to two terms. He’d clean their clocks in another election.
