He's Also Not A Martian Pod Person.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Christmas in July.

When you have to constantly make up lunatic conspiracies to 'whatabout' so you can avoid admitting to yourself that you're the bad guys.

    Interestingly, the way Muir may once again find that sense of purpose we were talking about is by exaggerating the presence of a traitorous RINO anti-MAGA conspiracy in the government--the evidence of this conspiracy being any time Trump doesn't instantly and immediately get whatever he wants. (Which I'm sure will not happen enough for my tastes, but still.) In the latest strip, even Susie Wiles is portrayed as somehow being too normie, not willing to buck the mainstream and hire Jesus, etc. Muir is basically going to have to invent more enemies. It's the only way his strip works.

      Oh, certainly. We saw this happen in the first term as well. It's just happening faster. It serves two purposes. The first as you say is to give the strip some sort of direction. The other is to explain just why the supposed triumph is never as shiny has he stated it would be, and indeed is frequently quite dingy.
