"This Is A Frightfully Silly Place."

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Gatsby.

Sometimes, you just have to deal with the fact that Muirverse bears no resemblance to a coherent world, but is instead a shambling mess where the laws of causality have perished.

"Well, They're Only Mexicans, So This Is Okay!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because stations of the cross.

So, any checking on all those federal agents that got killed?

Any?

Any at all?

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because I needed to try, I needed to fall.

Gonna be a long four years.

*Rimshot* "I'll Be Here All Week! Enjoy The Veal!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because jump in the line.

It's clear that Muir's sense of what's a difficult puzzle is as stunted as his sense of humor.

And his kids remain demonspawn.

"Clearly, I Am NOT Racist!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because the Philosophy of Spinoza.

...

I think deep down it infuriates Muir that Obama will always have been President--for two terms, no less--now.

"I'm So Glad I Never Pay Attention To Anything That Isn't Crazy!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Rome was not built in a day.

It's kind of amazing, when you think about that, that Muir has never had to deal with the fact that his version of the President didn't match reality at all. So, having spent eight years prophesying a fascist takeover that never happened, let's watch him explain away a creep towards authoritarianism once again.

"Real Muricans Know We Are Always Backstabbed By The Evil Untermenschen Within."

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because the Midnight Special.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because we aren't dirty, we aren't mean.

Muir will always love our troops--as props.

"Ha Ha! It's Funny That The Government I Denounced As A Tyranny Hacked My Own Nation!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because wooden pumpkins.

And once again, Muir shows his awesome, inch-deep patriotism.  While showing his sexist sleaziness.  Fun.

Bad Russian Guyovitch.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because spinning wheel.

Oh, this isn't about to go into  a disturbing glance into Muir's misogyny...

"Ha Ha! You Exist To Be Ogled At! Literally!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because miniature room.

Charming as always.

"Ha Ha! Clearly They Are Gone And Ruined Forever!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Hans Kung.

Well, this does not remind me of anything...

"He's Awful And Evil! And Trump Will Be Great!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because  lavender.

I'm now counting the days when Muir starts explaining that Trump was never a real conservative.

"It's Always Time For A Bad Double Entendre!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because take this stranger from my boat.

It's also always time to explain how liberals are awful, and everything proves they are awful.

"This Is Brilliant!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Horus.

There's a dark side to the ongoing death of the publishing industry.

"We Are So Persecuted!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because

And even victory doesn't satisfy the bully's internal conviction that, all appearances to the contrary, he is a victim.

"Ha! Your Blatant Racism Is Amusing!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Salmanca.

The next few years in a nutshell--the muddled middle discovering that when you let racist sexist asshats go on, they keep going, until you are given the choice of nodding along with something more vile than you thought possible, or drawing a line.

"I For One Eagerly Await The Upcoming Economic Collapse!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because the Top Hat.

Muir's continuing delusion that he can draw nudes never fails to depress...

More Nudity! More Bad Ethnic Humor!

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because dah dah-dah dee-dah-do dee-dah-do dah-do-dah dah-do-dah-dah-dah dah-dah-dah do-dah-dah.

Russian Guyovitch has been  out of the strip for a while, hasn't he?

Muir's Reach Must Exceed His Grasp...

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because spinning wheel.

The Yiddish phrases are the toxic cherry on the shit sundae that is this strip.

"You Were Not Properly Servile! That Makes You The Enemy!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because blizzard.

Note that Muir's fictional Voice of the People--aside from having the general behaviors of a Deliverance cast member--can't remember Kellyane Conway's name.

And that tells you a great deal of what you need to know...

"They Have Cold! This Makes Them Inferior!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because they will not control us.

I feel obligated to note that Muir is a transplanted New Yorker.

And of course, Skye is up for her usual bit of shaming for not being part of the hivemind...

"We're Great! They Suck! DON'T YOU JUDGE US!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because ether fumes.

Meanwhile, in the real world, California has a budget surplus.

It's funny that on some level Muir seems to realize that Damon is an obnoxious asshole.

"Clearly, Everything Will Be Fine, Forever And Ever!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because rose-flavored.

...

And Trump hasn't even taken power yet.  It will be interesting watch Muir retreat back into his pillow fort.

"Yup, Everything American, Like Racism, And Sexism, And Fascism!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because hey.

As usual, Muir is immune to irony.

"Do We Even Know What We're Talking About?"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Sunny Jiim.

...At this point, the strip is just endless brainfarts disguised as discussion...

"The Rise Of Blind Reactionaryism Is So Groovy!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because a cuckoo's nest.

And there's a guy who completely missed the point of Mad Men...

"Our Epic Win Through Quirks Of Law And Geography Despite Losing The Popular Vote Proves Everyone Loves Us!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Knights of Cydonia.

Oh, God, Muir's going to try and have his sociopathic cast members pretend to have feelings.  And as usual, it will be awful.

"How Can They Not Applaud Racism, Sexism, and AntiSemitism? How?"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Honest Ben Johnson.

Does the man who loves to insist that Democrats are Nazis realize he is making kissy faces at actual Nazis?  As in, people who give Nazi salutes, and quote Nazi leaders?

And if he ever does, will he care?

"Quoting Somebody Else Will Give Me The Punchline I Need!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because you only give me your funny paper.

Of course Muir views Maureen Dowd as close to positively as he is possible a NYT journalist.  Of course he does.
