Same thing happened in 2016. He got a few things done the first 2 years (the big tax cut was the main thing), then the Democrats got the House back in 2018 and he accomplished very little. Both impeachments happened after 2018.

Refusing to peacefully transfer power would be the end of democracy.

Maybe I’m explaining the joke, but Jon is supposed to be an Everyman.

I’m a huge long-term fan of the Garfield comics. Lyman basically ditches Jon with Odie. It’s never explained in detail because it’s a 3 frame comic. More optimistically, and “cannon” Jon was enthusiastic about inheriting Odie while Lymon left for unexplained reasons. Jon thought owning a dog would help him meet women.

As for the quote you referenced. Garfield has thought bubbles. Jon talks. Lyman exists because he can talk while Garfield can only “think”. Jim Davis originally thought it would be confusing to have thought clouds and talk bubbles interacting. Like how does a cat talk with a person? But that quickly became the norm in the comic. Once talking and thinking could interact, Lyman no longer needed to exist.

Rare appearance of Jon’s friend Lyman, who doesn’t appear in hardly anything after 1980.

I can see why the sheriff doesn’t want to rush to call it lynching when there isn’t evidence of lynching specifically. BUT it appears to be a horrific and violent crime that surely should be their first priority. Sheriff’s statement is downplaying the whole thing.

Damage already done. But I’m happy to see she’s sorry.

Never touched the series after they started marketing for kids

It was always marketed at kids. The anime, which came out a full year before the video game (in the USA), was about a 10 year old boy. The video game was the same. Who do you think the audience was if not 10 year olds?

Mine probably would be worth something, however they were stolen in the 3rd grade by a classmate. Those were Japanese cards from about a year before they started making the English cards. However if they weren’t stolen, and I still had them, their condition would probably be 2/10 because I was taking them everywhere. So worthless based on condition.
