The criticism for Biden coming from the right is entirely bad faith bullshit and slander.

I think criticizing Biden is good, but the criticism coming from the right should be disregarded entirely until they show an actual intrest in governing and not just remaining in power through obstruction and racism.

This isn't meant as a shot at you (and I'm not sure if it come off as one? I dunno, I've had a long day and sometimes it's hard to judge how my tone is coming across in text) it's just that I'm not sure it actually is possible to criticize Biden from the right simply because the American right doesn't actually have any concrete goals beyond voter suppression at this point.
I’m not saying attacks from the right are good-faith or correct, but they’re a drat sight better than “Actually, it’s his wife’s fault she died with their daughter.” It makes you look like a loving mega rear end in a top hat, will typically just garner sympathy for Biden, and it doesn’t even have anything to do with Biden’s presidency.

You don’t have to go this route. You have plenty of stupid right-wing poo poo to attack him on, and yet they keep going for that because they’re ghouls who’ve lost all humanity in them. It’s a likely a contributing factor to Biden’s victory because Trump couldn’t stop going there, and Biden’s campaign was more than happy for a reason to have photos of Biden hugging his boys routinely running in the news.

I mean, Biden still lies about that dude being drunk and at fault when he hit them so that is kinda a pretty big example of what a completely amoral person he is in exploiting family tragedy.

Like, maybe if he wasn't disgusting, and Hunter didn't run around crying about how hard being a Biden is to a fawning media then even morons like Garrison wouldn't be able to accurately play those cards.

The hands are drawn as being far away from each other when the purpose of the drawing is to convey they're cuffed together. No other feature of Floyd's (?) anatomy is recognisable, even to the artist, who has drawn Chauvin (?) kneeling (?) on Floyd's back instead of his neck

If by "still" sexpig means "he stopped twelve years ago and apologized to the family", and if by the bit about Hunter Biden he means "Hunter just published a new book and is in the news for that reason", then sure. But sexpig wouldn't be sexpig without recycling right-wing talking points to try to appear leftist.

I know he does commission work where he draws the commissioner and their favorite right-wing personalities owning the libs while daddy Trump looks on approvingly. He charges like $5000 for something that looks about the same effort level as his comics, but he doesn't seem to do it very frequently. My guess is he could make a very comfortable living doing this if he so chose.

Yeah but the main (only?) clientele he had for those commissions appeared to be the grifters themselves, many of whom have seen their income diminished significantly in the last couple of years (Milo and Molyneux, two frequent commissioners, have all but resorted to begging in the few platforms they have left). I'm sure he could still make bank for a while if he pivoted to a more modestly-priced commission-only model aimed at his general audience, but you need name recognition for that, and Garrison's visibility depends on his frequent output - the one thing I can give Garrison is that he's extremely prolific by cartoonist standards, but that also becomes an expectation from your audience once you've been producing at that rate for long enough.
