...I've been working in it for 40+ years as a "graphics technician"*

There are lottttssss of ripoff artists/"designers" who couldn't draw a circle or a square if their life depended upon it.

Easier to hire somebody to knock-it-off, whatever it is.

As an independent contractor, I avoid the likes of 'em.

*That's an all-encompassing term - "analog" art to digital.

Some of those are very clearly copies -- that red one and the wedge look virtually identical with clearly distinctive styles; the rest are all very close. I predict she'll lose these suits and should.

But heck, given Ivanka stole Michelle's speeches and Daddy steals from all his contractors, ripping people off is clearly a family affair.

Clearly, only three weeks in, you just know that this likely will be the worst presidency in U.S. history. Worse than Nixon, although recent additional audio files of Nixon and his henchmen are pretty damning; his anti-Semitic paranoia ran deep.

But at least the country back then (including most Republicans) did the right thing and threaten him with impeachment if he didn't resign. His VP, Spiro Agnew pleaded "no contest" when accused of income tax evasion. Other charges against Agnew were worse (bribery, extortion), but if he agreed to resign, he'd have to answer only to the tax evation charge. All that law-and-order bluster from Agnew and Nixon, and THEY were the goddamned crooks.

Unfortunately, today's KGOP lacks any honor or decency, so instead of getting rid of the menace, they're going to gamble (with our lives and our money) that Trump will fulfill their highly partisan goals. In spite of all the amateurish confusion, the right has had the equivalent of its high holy days, each one bringing an agenda-list-check-off blow.
