Ted Rall

Political cartoonists and analysts Ted Rall (of the Left) and Scott Stantis (of the Right) discuss the week’s current events and politics. First, the political classes try to determine whether Joe Biden’s reelection bid can be salvaged after the special counsel’s devastating assessment that he’s too senile to be charged with a felony over mishandling classified documents and, if not, will Democrats force him out and how exactly will that work?

Next, Democrats take disgraced Congressman George Santos’ former seat in New York by a comfortable margin. What, if anything, does this portend for the GOP’s chances overall this fall?

Finally, Republicans take a second stab at impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over the border crisis, and succeed. Everyone gets an impeachment! But does it matter?

Still Don’t Think He’s Senile?

•
Ted Rall

The filibuster is the most powerful legislative tool available to the minority in the United States Senate. Why on earth would Democrats want to get rid of it now that there is an overwhelming likelihood they will lose control of the Senate this November?

Good Ideas, Lousy Execution

•
Ted Rall

President Biden was right to carry out the full withdrawal from Afghanistan, a war that was doomed from the start. But his execution of the withdrawal was absolutely abysmal, and his performance before the media is becoming downright 25th Amendment worthy.

Coronavirus Stimulus Negotiations

•
Ted Rall

Joe Biden promised that every American would receive a $2000 stimulus check. Then he reduced it to $1400 because Trump had already sent out $600. Now he saying it’s going to be a means tested. It’s like he’s negotiating against himself. Evidently the Republicans won’t have that much trouble getting along with him.

Joe Biden Brings on the Dignity

The departure of Donald Trump removed a leader for whom dignity was a low priority to say the least. But no one’s talking about the embarrassment of having an incoming President of United States who is physically and mentally feeble.

When Your First Term Is Going to Be Your Last

•
Ted Rall

Largely unspoken by Democrats is the open secret that Joe Biden is suffering both physically and mentally from the effects of aging. He seems unlikely to finish his full term and vice president Kamala Harris is an extremely ambitious person. How long will he last?

President Skeletor is My Co-Pilot

•
Ted Rall

Everyone knows that Joe Biden is probably too old to be president. However, Democrats pointed out that he would have Kamala Harris to step in and spot him if he ever falls down on the job. Would you get on a plane with Joe Biden as a pilot?

The Difficult Decision Facing Voters in the 2020 Election

Ted Rall

Voters in key swing states say that they are split between former vice president Joe Biden and president Donald Trump over who is better situated to fight the coronavirus and revitalize the economy. How is this a difficult decision? They both are terrible.

Team Politics Is the Great Equalizer between Republicans and Dem

•
Ted Rall

When questions about Donald Trump’s mental fitness and accusations that he sexually assaulted women were raised, Democrats were rightfully critical and demanded answers. Now, the shoe is on the other foot with Joe Biden. There is at least one credible allegation that he raped a staffer and his mental decompensation is there for all to see. Yet some Democrats continue to insist that we should support Joe Biden.
