"Pfft. Why Would People Want To Track Disease, Eh?"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because what we need is to cut out the middle man.

...

So, you hear how Palm Beach is one of the new hotspots?

Let's see if it cracks the bubble and gets warped into more proof of Democrat perfidy, or if Muir just goes on ignoring it.

Confirmation--Muir Hasn't Read 'The Wizard Of Oz'.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because one hundred years of treats.

You know the fascinating thing about Muir's incoherent ramblings--and they are hella incoherent--is that when you break them down, it's the old fascist standby, "We are the good and pure who've seen the nation through dark times, they are the degenerate traitors, and ignore what actually happened, and how we fucked everything up, because feels, and also, herrenvolk." It's an endless loop that's people convince themselves that this time of siding with people who hurt them will go differently, frequently while declaring the people they used to see as good guys were of course, always impure traitors.

And so we wait for Trump to join Muir's pile of discarded idols, in time.

"I Have Not Moved For The Last Day!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because my dad's not a phone.

Ahh, yes, more accusations of treason from the wannabe secessionist who adores the dimwitted puppet of a foreign leader. Always fun.

"Youse Is Da Real Crooks!"

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

It says something that this is the most generic 'Democrats are baddie bads!' strip that Muir has pulled out in a while.

"The Most Crab Bucket Thing We Can Do Is Try To Help One Another!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because the Final Fantasy Theme remains one of the best video game themes ever.

You know there's a lot of irony how Objectivism and Libertarianism have become some of the most suppressive ideologies that encourage people to invest in their own subjugation when they tend to paint themselves as the exact opposite.

"Man, Why Hasn't Anybody Tried This Before...?"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because I threw it on the ground.

So, trying to control a plague is JUST LIKE taxation without representation.

And not just like, I don't know, seceding because the more populous section of the country elected someone you don't like, which you made easier by dividing the vote, and that guy might just try to limit slavery, crazy thought.

Russian Guyovitch. Proof That Muir Ruins Everything, In The End.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because please please me.

You know, as we watch Russian Guyovitch explain that we should just let the disease rampage, because things would be fine, I'm reminded of Harold Gray bitching about FDR throughout the entire Great Depression, and well, going into WWII, insisting that if Americans just tried a little harder, things would be fine.

Of course, there's a big difference between Gray and Muir's respective brands of wrong-headedness--first, Gray really was a great comic artist, and Little Orphan Annie is a classic.

Second--Little Orphan Annie wasn't made JUST to bludgeon people with Gray's politics. (Even if it wound up doing that quite a bit in that era.  All of which illustrates why Day by Day is such a terrible strip, one that seems to be getting exponentially worse every year.
