In reply to the discussion: OMGosh someone threw a tomato at tRump after he called Bernie a communist!!!!! [View all]cascadiance
(19,537 posts)60. I wonder if Berke Breathed had Bloom County have Bill and Opus trying to "tomato" Trump perhaps?...
According to this page, Trump is one of his favorite targets now in bringing back Bloom County (and perhaps Bill and Opus running for president... or maybe endorsing Bernie?)

Trump gets $2,000,000 challenge from Bloom Countys Berkeley Breathed
In case you missed the news, cartoonist Berkeley Breathed resurrected the Pulitzer prize-winning comic stip, Bloom County, earlier this month after a 25-year absence and immediately went after one of his favorite targets, Donald Trump.
Breathed issued a challenge to the 2016 presidential candidate over on his Facebook page, writing that if Trump can prove NO shared DNA between his head fur and that of his pet Lhasa Apso, then the Really Loaded Friends of Bloom County will pay a charity of Trumps choice $2,000,000.
The post then included an image of a cashiers check from billionaire Mark Cuban made out to Armed Border Patriots:

Perhaps I missed a strip where the strip eggs on Bloom County fans to throw stuff like tomatoes at the Trump?
Of course Berke Breathed has always liked Iowa City where he lived for most of the time when he did the Bloom County Strip over the years.

Trump reminds me of a Roman emperor. He should hold his gatherings in a Colosseum.
