Headline: “Trump Committed Felony Urging Supporters to Vote Twice”
Donald Trump told supporters: “Vote twice,”
Which is awful, unlawful advice.
His words aren’t just flawed;
He’s encouraging fraud.
Yet another Trump crime with no price.

Thursday, September 3rd, 2020Trump’s Plain-Sight-Crime Defense (Limerick)
Saturday, October 19th, 2019Headline: “Trump’s novel corruption defense: I do it in plain sight”
Trump keeps doing misdeeds in plain sight
To induce the belief they’re no blight
On the laws of our land,
That they breach no command;
If illegal, he’d hide them all. Right?
Donald’s “She’s Not My Type” Defense (Limerick)
Tuesday, June 25th, 2019Headline: “Trump’s repeated defense against assault accusations: call the accuser unattractive”
Donald’s message: I’m very selective
When viewing a victim, prospective,
So her rape claim’s a lie,
And it’s obvious why:
She isn’t “my type!” She’s defective!
“Otherwise Blameless?” (Quatrain)
Saturday, March 9th, 2019Headline: “How could anyone think Paul Manafort lived an ‘otherwise blameless’ life?”
NOT a limerick:
Judge Ellis while sentencing Paul
Said his life has been “otherwise blameless.”
But that claim just ain’t true. Not at all!
Seems both Paul and Judge Ellis are shameless.
Open 3-Verse Limerick To Donald Trump
Sunday, January 6th, 2019I won’t ask you, dear Trump, not to lie.
You can’t stop, so don’t bother to try.
And nor will I ask
You to do any task
That requires a warm-hearted guy.
And there’s really no need to pretend
That the law isn’t something you bend
To benefit you
And a very small few:
Your children … and maybe a friend.
I won’t EVEN say, Donald don’t whine.
You can’t help it, I know, so that’s fine.
I’ve a single request,
And it isn’t “Be Best.”
I am begging you: Kindly Resign!
Trump’s Team Of Crooks (Limerick)
Tuesday, December 18th, 2018Slate: “The DOJ has made a pretty thorough case that the Trump campaign was filled with crooks.”
Trump’s campaign-team was teeming with crooks
It surely was one for the books;
His affinity for
That felonious corps
Was driven by greed. (Not good looks.)
Trump’s Favorite Defenses (Limerick)
Tuesday, December 18th, 2018“Never happened!” (Trump’s fav’rite defense)
His use of that claim is immense.
When it fails (all the time)
Trump denies it’s a crime,
Unwisely surmising we’re dense.
Limerick Ode To Trump’s Inauguration Fund
Monday, December 17th, 2018Trump’s Inaugural Fund looks suspicious;
Monies raised were bizarrely ambitious,
And the numbers don’t jibe.
Were there pay-offs? A bribe?
Major windfalls for Trump injudicious?
I Smell A Rat In The White House (Limerick)
Monday, December 17th, 2018Headline: “Maybe Trump should try harder not to sound like a mob boss”
Dear Donald, it’s best not to choose
Mob-boss lingo, like “rat,” to confuse
And placate your base.
It does NOT help your case
To tweet jargon a crim’nal would use.
The Beauty Of A Butina Deal (Limerick)
Monday, December 10th, 2018Headline: “Accused Russian spy Maria Butina appears poised to plead guilty”
Donald Trump should be tied up in knots,
Cuz Maria Butina knows lots,
And it looks like she’ll squeal;
She has just made a deal.
Oy gevalt! Trump may actually plotz.
“Smocking Gun” Mockery (Limerick)
Monday, December 10th, 2018From a Trump tweet today: “No Smocking Gun…No Collusion.”
Donald tweets about guns that ain’t “smocking,”
Which occasions a whole lot of mocking.
Poor Trump’s in a bind,
For soon he will find
Much bad news and “clean” coal in his stocking.
The GOP’s Silence Is Deafening (Limerick)
Saturday, December 8th, 2018From Pulitzer Prize-nominated journalist Victoria Brownworth: “It’s extraordinary that the GOP leadership has said not one word about the events of the last 24 hrs. A sitting US president has been named as a felon. A felon. And they are silent.”
Now that Donald has clearly been named
As a criminal, who could be blamed
For wondering when
Republican men
Will acknowledge their party’s been shamed?
Trump: “Witness Tamperer In Chief” (Limerick)
Monday, December 3rd, 2018Headline: “Kellyanne Conway’s Husband Accuses Trump of Witness Tampering”
Donald’s latest illegal pursuit:
Witness tamp’ring on Twitter. The coot
Injudiciously hurts
His case; his tweet-blurts
Furnish proof Trump can never refute.
Trump Must Pay! (Limerick)
Monday, November 26th, 2018For his crimes and his wrongs, Trump must pay.
It’s essential! We should not delay,
Else the normalization
Of crass aberration
Shall forever remain on display.
Leading By Example (Limerick)
Tuesday, October 23rd, 2018Headline: “Man Cites Trump After Groping Woman on Flight”
Trump’s impact is rather immense,
And it often defies common sense.
Grope a gal sans permission?
No need for contrition;
Just rely on the “Donald Defense!”
Kavanaugh Lies (Limerick)
Sunday, September 30th, 2018This limerick was inspired by Thursday’s hearing and this article: “THE UNBEARABLE DISHONESTY OF BRETT KAVANAUGH.”
Brett told lies to the world, large and small,
Some entailing an “I don’t recall.”
Some were odd, like this tale:
“No connections to Yale!”
Which just might Yale-grad-grandpa appall.
Brett Kavanaugh Limerick Duo
Wednesday, September 26th, 2018Will Kavanaugh ever bow out?
That perjuring sexual lout
Was intended to be
Donald’s trump card; he’s key
To Trump’s keeping his freedom and clout.
*****
Mitch has hired a “female assistant”
So Republican men can stay distant
From plans untoward
Like “assassinate” Ford…
Which might render their wins non-existent.
Probing Logic (Limerick)
Thursday, September 20th, 2018Apply logic: Who’s likely to lie
About something that most would decry?
The woman who asked
That G-men be tasked
With a probe? Or “NO-FBI Guy?”
Limerick Ode To Christine Blasey Ford
Wednesday, September 19th, 2018Thanks to Peter Daou for inspiring my limerick with this tweet:
Woman reports sexual assault.
Woman gets slimed and vilified.
Woman gets called a liar and opportunist.
Woman gets death threats and is forced to leave her home.
GOP MEN: Why did she wait to come forward?
When a gal reports sexual assault,
She’s reviled and she’s slimed. Oy gevalt!
She’s sent death threats galore,
As she gets this what-for:
“Why’d you wait to speak out? You’re at fault!”
