Sunday Funnies 170521 Impeach or Impair (The GOP's Fruitless Dilemma)

Republicans control all three branches of the American government. They should be able to impose their regressive, repressive, and repugnant policies on America with ease.

However, a man-child with bad hair and the attention span of a goldfish heads the executive branch, and his only goal is to make everybody tell him what a good boy he is.

To this end, a constant stream of headline-grabbing "alternative facts," tweets, and executive orders from the Oval Office emanate from his oral orifice crippling the GOP's attempts to legislate America back to the halcyon days of Jim Crow justice.

Meanwhile, a growing body of evidence suggests that The Donald is, at best, utterly unqualified for the office he holds. Much more seriously, it appears that he may have been a participant in efforts by the Russian government to interfere in the 2016 presidential election.

As a result, the Republicans face a difficult, political and moral choice. Should they follow the evidence and initiate action to impeach their party's standard bearer to restore order and decorum to the government, or should they ignore the evidence in order to legislatively impair America's heritage of social progress?

What's a party hell-bent on resurrecting the Confederacy to do?

Enjoy this week's cartoon salad. It comes garnished with a slogan borrowed from FOX "News" – I'll report; you decide.
