I think the bunnies are, well, bunnies because otherwise the Clintons would be a regular character on the strip. Sometimes he just uses them as generic standins for corrupt politicians and pivot to Clinton bashing when convenient.

The male bunny is also sometimes Obama when it's appropriate, if I remember correctly. Often when they're dealing with the """"""""""""""""""""""""""desert hamsters"""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Basically it's verboten within the republican noise machine to condemn Trump for being far-right, racist, xenophobic, fascist or sexist. The approved list of criticisms include "inexperienced", "ridiculous", "mean", "former democrat", "blowhard", "reality TV star", "childish", "thin-skinned". i.e. it's not that they have a problem with any of the things Trump thinks or plans to do (unless it's him being vaguely noncommital on abortion and Israel). It's that it will be Trump doing those things.

NoEyedSquareGuy posted:Still not getting it. Republican In Name Only, which, given the relative difference between trump and the standard GOP opinions, is a decent enough criticism from party shill Ramirez. Overall that cartoon is pretty good, but the Trump label undercuts imo.

More to the point, the RINO label has traditionally been applied to Republicans who lean too far to the left. Trump is anything but.

I wouldn't say trump leans to the left, but he definitely leans a little differently than the rest of the candidates. He's anti free trade, and seems ambivalent about some traditional socially conservative policies while being way more gung ho about others. He's different, which is why the other candidates have trouble cutting into his support.

He's different, which is why the other candidates have trouble cutting into his support. Protectionism isn't inherently left or right. It's inherently populist. You can argue for protectionism or free trade from left or right standpoints.

Republicans should just go ahead and replace their elephant symbol with an ash ghoul, it's close enough.
