Remember The Pretend Scandal That Was About The Insisting The Actual Scandal Wasn't Real!

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because revolution on the Hudson.


It says something that Muir has gone full apologist only slightly over a year into the Trump Presidency.

Now Supporting Skinheads.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because awkward segue.

And the side effect of Muir's freebasing ever more extreme news substitutes--now he's pledging his support to a British white supremacist. 

"This Shows How Awesome I Am, Believing Ludicrous Conspiracy Theories!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because obligatory cameo.

Remember when she supposedly had Parkinson's and multiple diseases?

Yep, it's good to see that even her being a private citizen doesn't keep the ridiculous slander from flowing.

And by "good" I mean "awful".

Muir's Version Of An Ideal Marriage.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because One-Punch Man.

You know, as awful and sexist as this is, it would be worse if Sam weren't basically a gender-flipped version of her husband.

Chockfull Of Alternative Facts, Or As They Are Also Known, Lies.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because if you've got know place to go, if you're feeling down.

The pointless sexism brought into the paranoid rants for no apparent reason is pretty much peak-Muir, isn't it?

"This Is Witty, Not Disturbing!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because slight chill.

It says something that the dream he mentions sound more like the indicator of a serial killer than the ever so amusing bit of drollery he imagines it to be.

Oh, and Sam's face has achieved something truly horrifying in that last panel.

"Everyone To The Left Of Me Is A Communist!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because when they say "America First" they mean "America Next".

As Muir defends an administration in hock to a KGB apparatchik turned de facto dictator, let's enjoy yet another demonstration of his complete lack of historical knowledge.

"The Sacred Gun Shall Protect Us!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because hell to the no.

And once again, we get a grand demonstration that Muir doesn't know history at all.  While imagining he does.

"Har Har! I've Got Such Cutting Wit!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because please Father Christmas.

So, what does Muir gain from acting like a sexist git in this case?  Because as far as I can see, this is simply so he can be a sexist git.

"Not All Of Us Are Decadent! Some Of Us Are Armed!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow.

And as Muir prepares for another lengthy bit of online begging to keep his paean to free industry up, let's just stare at the awkward praise for the Murikan herrenvolk and their mighty supply of firearms.

And Muir Ignores What He's Done Here.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Penny Black.

And I think Muir has actually forgotten who got elected in 1980, in his championing of his new orange-tinged Vozhd.

"It's All The Evil Jews! Also, Obama Is A Gay Muslim!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because send a holla-gram.

It just eats them up that Obama's always going to have been President now. 

"These Words Mean What I Want Them To Mean!"

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

Ahh, yes, a strip of Sam's distorted face speaking nonsense and smugly fucking with a faceless opponent.

The extent to which Muir has not only not progressed but actually regressed as an artist is kind of amazing.

"Siccing A Feral Bull On People We Don't Like Shows That We're Superior!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Roland searched the continent for the man who did him in.

Remember people, the characters with all the power who are rewarded constantly for their bad actions are this strip's lovable protagonists.

Well, they're supposed to be lovable, anyway.

"Ha Ha! Stupid Protesters!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Merriam Webster.

So either evil robots or special forces attacking protestors.

Yep, such a bwave man, Muir. 

Of Course That's The Spanish Expression He Uses. Of Course.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because wear your love like heaven.

I don't know whether the robot or El Dorado Dad's accent is the least believable element of the strip.

"Go To The Sunken Place, Damon!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Fantaman, Fantaman!

At times like this, I like to think that the hideous parody of life that Damon and Jan have been granted as the strip's token minorities is an inexact process and that sometimes it fails slightly, resulting in these bizarre little hiccups. 

"Let Us All Smile Like The Hideous Mockeries Of Life We Are!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because his mother was a saint.

El Dorado Dad and Hellspawn in the same strip.

...Lucky us.

"They Are All Criminals And Secret Muslims!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Nanook, no, no, no.

To be fair, this is actually a return to relative normal by Muir's standards.

"And The Freedom To Melt Like Congealed Fat!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because remember when the ocean went mad and we were to blame.

Muir's Trump drawings just get worse and worse.

"You Have Suffered Hardships No Other President Has, I Assume, Because I Don't Bother To Learn Things."

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

You know, this is so pathetic on so many levels, that I actually feel pity for Muir in this case.

"He's So Bwave!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Pacific Time Zone.

The signs of Trump's failures as a leader are in fact all evidence of his GENIUS as a leader!  That's brilliant!

No, wait, that's crazy.  That was the word I was looking for.

"Our Opponents Are Simultaneously Geniuses And Morons!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Vegetable Man where are you?

To be fair to Muir, the declarations of victory on the Right have spread from the 'unabashed lunatic fringe' to the 'desperately trying to appear sane' portion as the situation grows worse.

It's like Iraq all over again.

"Yes, The Jewish Man Is Clearly A Nazi!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because smart, visceral, terrifying.

There's a reason that Republicans have to play the internal resistance of the government to their increasingly lawless stance as a malignant conspiracy--to admit the truth would be to cast themselves as a disease in the body politic, and once you admit that, you start having to reconsider things.

And so we see Chuck Schumer painted as a Nazi, because, sure, why not.

"Ha Ha! Our Foes Are All Inferior And Stupid, And This Is True Because I Keep Saying It!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Uru hammer.

It says something, the extent to which the Right has switched from trying to convince people, or even muddy the waters, to simply confirming to their own that All is Well.

"We Are Totally Winning This, Yep!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because his houses were built upon the sand.

Muir.  For law and order, but only for the other people.

"Right! This Proves Everyone Who Is Against Me Is A Liar!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because I am a man, I am a mountain.

Ahh, yes.  More crazy conspiracy theories to explain how everyone is against you, and how all this evidence you're on the wrong side is fake.  Got it.

"You Are The Bad Guys! Not Us!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Tower Hamlets.

So remember, the people who are allied with a bunch of Nazis who held a Nazi rally?

Not Nazis.

The people who elected a black man?

Nazis.

The people calling for a woman to be locked up just because?

Not fascists.

The people investigating actual wrong-doing?

Fascists.

Because it's not about what you do, or what you believe.  Muir knows that he's good and a patriot, because he's him, and how could he be anything else, mmmm?

"Stupid Wimmen!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because baby, can you hear me call?

Because remember, white guys are always the real victims, in the Muirverse.

"I Demand You Show A Courtesy I Will Never Return!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because just a metal circle.

So, same strip as yesterday, pretty much.

"And They Are Nazis Because We Say So!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because I've been waiting so long.

You know, rather than focus on the inane politics of this strip, I'm going to point out that Jan is apparently dissolving into geometric shapes.  Because of course she is.
