Neal Adams idiotically slams Donald Trump
The next example of a comics pro engaging in needless Trump-bashing is veteran artist Neal Adams:
And I feel like I'm reading one! Message to Adams: I think you're a very talented illustrator, and your work on Batman and Avengers, among other series, are valuble contributions to comicdom. And I think it was unfair when a writer for a left-wing site made petty attacks on how you drew Wonder Woman in an homage to a coverscan from the early 1970s. But if you keep on with these distorted attacks on president Trump, somebody with common sense is bound to start wondering if you're worth backing, and it can undermine artists of your sort when you need all the help you can get. So please, do your fans and yourself a favor and stop with the one-dimensional Trump-bashing for heaven's sake. And please don't make naive statements about certain religions either.
And I'd suggest Adams consider that farmers aren't saints either, if those in California were going to hire illegal immigrants for their field work. And if he is trying to defend farmers, then he'd do well to consider that 2 San Diego professors made offensive comments about farmers. Adams is a great artist, but not a great political observer or commentator. I'd be much happier if he stuck with the former and refrained from the latter.
Donald @realDonaldTrump Stroke farmers while your RICH FRIENDS buy up their farms after legislating them under government control!— Neal Adams (@nealadamsdotcom) January 9, 2018
Wait. What am I saying? I'm talking to an idiot!
