Bombs, bombs, everywhere....

Disingenuous much? Facebook doesn't publish original cartoons, as far as I know. What's its real provenance?

Why does that matter? Do you really need the political slant of the originator to understand it? It is a CARTOON ffs.

[JaneV2.0]

I agree--the political slant of the originator is obvious.

Lighten up people. Everyone in the political arena is fair game. I personally love the trump baby blimp.

It’s Russian provocateurs trying to destroy our democracy by undermining our longstanding tradition of political civility!

But they succeeded at that two years ago. Why are they still here?

There are nuts on either side of the fence who might be among my prime suspects. It could be a false flag of a false flag promulgated by the right to look like a false flag from the left if we're getting into conspiracies.

Taking the nut factor off the table, the Ruskies would be my next pick.

Unfortunately, the people of this country, like their leadership aren’t interested in the truth or reality anymore. That’s much too boring. It’s much more interesting to lie to each other, themselves and the world. And they enjoy being told fairytales. In fact, the more ludicrous the tale, the more they embrace it. Nobody is interested in what really happened.

Okay, I'll bite. What really happened?

As WS says, it's probably really boring. Sure it's fun to fantasize that there's some big crazy story of democrats or russians sending bombs for nefarious reasons. But it's far more likely that some nutjob who spends way too much time on infowars has taken trump's ongoing message to heart and sent a bunch of crude bombs to trump's political enemies. But that's not a particularly exciting or interesting story. Just kind of sad. Like John Hinckley.

None of us can do any more than speculate at this point, and our speculations will differ depending on our political leanings. Probably better to wait until the FBI does their job and go from there.

I find it pretty amazing that a single nutjob could coordinate so many same-day deliveries. Heck, Amazon Prime messes up my next-day stuff all the time.
