Does Donald Obey Golf Rules? Of Course Not! (Limerick)

Tuesday, June 27th, 2017

Some golf fans may be fine with Trump’s lies. But driving his golf cart on the green is a bridge too far.

Lazy Trump drives his cart on the green,
His infraction obscenely routine.
He’s engulfing golf fans
In a fury that spans
The entire political scene.

Don’t Be Duped By Health Bill “Hold-Outs” (Limerick)

Friday, June 23rd, 2017

That it’s in at this time.” That’s the norm
From a devious pol
Who’s just trying to stall;
Though lukewarm, he’ll conform to the swarm.

Russian Election Interference — NOT A One-Time Thing (Limerick)

Wednesday, June 21st, 2017

Though people seem prone to adopt
The past tense re the Russians, I’ll opt
To claim present tense crime
Re elections, each time;
There’s no reason to think that they’ve stopped.

Nominee Obstruction Obfuscation (Limerick)

Wednesday, June 21st, 2017

Self-obstruction’s the root of Trump’s rue.

Limerick Ode To Memory-Challenged Jeff Sessions

Saturday, June 17th, 2017

Jeff Sessions repeats his old song,

“Can’t remember,” he’ll drawl.
But he’ll somehow recall
That he’s NEVER done anything wrong.

Newt’s Obstruction Hypocrisy (Limerick)

Saturday, June 17th, 2017

“A prez can’t obstruct!” Gingrich aims
To aid Trump, throwing logic in flames.

That same “rule” to his Whitewater claims.

Mitch’s Secret Health Bill (Limerick)

Friday, June 16th, 2017

A health care vote’s scheduled for June,
But the bill’s in an air-tight cocoon;
It’s been hidden by Mitch
Cuz its terms are a bitch
Which, if known, we’d impugn and lampoon.

The “Trump Doesn’t Know What He’s Saying” Defense (Limerick)

Did Donald obstruct? Some say “Nyet!
“That claim against Trump is all wet!
“He’s a novice pol/prez,
“So ignore what he says.
“His words are inept, so no threat.”

Another MEANingful Trump Claim (Limerick)

Tuesday, June 13th, 2017

A surprising House Health Bill complaint
Came from Donald. (Consistent, he ain’t.)
When it passed in the House,
How he partied, the louse!
Now he claims that it’s “mean,” in a feint.

Sunday, June 11th, 2017

Donald Trump appears miffed and adrift;
He’s bereft of his once go-to gift
Of BSing his way
Out of any foray.
No more heyday for fraud, lies, and grift!

Has McCain Lost His Mind? (Limerick)

John McCain, have you lost your connection
To sound reason? Your would-be deflection
Makes it look like you think
Hill belongs in the clink
For colluding to lose the election.

Limerick Ode To Rachel Maddow

Wednesday, June 7th, 2017

Dear Rachel, you’re back, and we hail
Your return, though you’re still looking pale.
Life without you is cursed,
But your health must come first,
As you help put the Donald in jail.

Voter’s Remorse? (Limerick)

Tuesday, June 6th, 2017

“Are you suff’ring from voter’s remorse?”
That query arises, perforce.
But I’ve yet to hear “yes”
In response, I confess.

On tweets, best described as unhinged.
Even folks who support

Him to stop, having read ’em & cringed.

Trump Tweetsploits London Terrorist Attack (Limerick)

Sunday, June 4th, 2017

In a tweet-storm volcanic and manic,
The Donald tells voters to panic.
Then he goes out to golf,
Leaving sane folks to rolf;
The “man” in the Oval’s satanic.

Limerick Ode To Trump’s Phantom Tax Bill

Saturday, June 3rd, 2017

Add this Trump “tax bill” lie to your list
Of assertions deservedly dissed:
It’s “in Congress” and “moving
Along,” he says proving
Non-bills can trump those that exist.

Friday, June 2nd, 2017

Whatever Obama did, I’ll wreck it bigly.
The guy ain’t American. I’ve got the proof.
Regs, health care, Paris, his wife’s stupid garden–
He dissed me in public. His legacy’s POOF!
