Inauguration Day:

UPDATE: I came up with an idea while listening President Trump's inaugural speech. So I drew it.

His speech was very encouraging. He reiterated a lot of the core content heard in his campaign speeches. He still placed America first and he wants to make it great again. He assured us all that the American people will not be ignored again. He’s a populist, nationalist president--and that’s a good thing. Don’t let CNN convince you it’s not.

For too long we have endured a president who was bent on dividing and replacing America with the vision held by globalist elites. It’s very refreshing to have a president who tells it like it is. He knows the political elite have for too long reaped the rewards of big government while the American people became more impoverished. Unlike Hillary and the elite establishment, Trump listened. That’s why he’s president.

We have a new captain who wants to ‘right the ship.’ He’ll put our own interests first. Obama put the UN’s interests first. Trump wants to heal our division whereas Obama intentionally made it much worse in order to usher in more collectivism.

And so this is my latest cartoon. I’ve drawn a great many Trump cartoons and now I will move on to other subjects for awhile. I have beern one of the few cartoonists (other than Branco) who drew pro-Trump cartoons. If Trump can close the borders and eliminate the ISIS terrorists, so much the better. However, I think the most important thing he can do is audit and then end the Federal Reserve and return the control and creation of money to We The People. That means returning money creation to Congress where it belongs. Do like Lincoln did—print greenbacks commensurate with production. It’s a good way to pay for all the infrastructure Trump wants to refurbish.

We will now see if 'Captain Trump’ can right the ship of state. He may be our last, best hope.

Cartoon drawn the day before the Inauguration:

I'm a little late with this one, but I don't have the luxury of being a full-time cartoonist like the few remaining ones working for the mainstream media. I also don't draw a giant salary. That's OK--I get to draw whatever I want and my Patreon members and those who buy my prints and t-shirts keep me going.

Inauguration day is here. The mainstream media, Hollywood, many politicians and the SJWs remain in a protracted sulk.

CNN continued their non-stop Trump bashing the night before the inauguration. They said Trump had better not try to bully the political establishment because they would be pushing back. They drummed up fear and implied Trump might start nuclear war. Even the weatherman claimed Trump’s hair could get rained on—thus revealing whether it’s fake or not. Well, we know what’s fake already: The mainstream media.

The CNN panelists then proceeded to vigorously kiss Obama’s backside. They called him another Gandhi. Yes, a man who dropped more bombs than any other president in history was compared to Mahatma. They called him a 'philosopher president' because he read books while in office. He should be known as the golfer president.

Obama claimed he ran a ‘scandal free’ administration and CNN eagerly parroted that. It was telling, because the mainstream media have become megaphones for the establishment. They could have found scandals a-plenty, but they don’t do investigative journalism any more. That’s because they are owned by globalists.

If CNN did real journalism they would have investigated Obama’s fake birth certificate and stolen social security number. They would have investigated Benghazi. Obama had Gaddafi murdered and then he and Hillary helped create ISIS. They would have questioned Sandy Hook and ‘Fast and Furious.’ They would have wondered why Obama spent nearly $100 million in taxpayer money on personal, lavish vacations. They would have looked into Obama's horrible Iran deal, including a $400 million ransom payment to that country. Then there was the fraud that was Obamacare.

Never before has the country witnessed such a blatant display of petulant poor sportsmanship. They can’t and won’t accept that Trump has been elected our next president. A liberal on Facebook stated she would not even mention Trump’s name. “He’s not my president!” A liberal relative, who unctuously posted that we must all support Obama, now states we must resist Trump. Michael Moore has said pretty much the same thing, although he’d be better off if he began resisting Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream. Rosie O’Donnell even cried for martial law in a desperate attempt to stop the inauguration. 

Meanwhile, Obama did his best to sabotage Trump including even trying to drum up a war with Russia. This is what Michael, er, Michelle must consider ‘taking the high road.’ 

Welcome, President Trump. I truly hope you can make America great again.
