The Victim-In-Chief Lashes Out (Limerick)

Wednesday, October 2nd, 2019

Headline: “Trump Says House Investigations Are ‘Bullshit’”

Poor Donald is all in a stew;

Extra hostile on Twitter,
He’s angry and bitter.
What’s a “victim” to do? Tweet and sue.

Trump Running Scared? (Limerick)

Wednesday, October 2nd, 2019

Headline: “Pelosi says Trump ‘scared’ of impeachment inquiry in exclusive ABC News interview”

As his villainous actions are bared.
He is used to eschewing
A price for wrong-doing.
So for punishment, Trump’s unprepared.

Tuesday, October 1st, 2019

Can you guess who is making them queasy?
No, not Donald; it’s Rudy.

Who somehow makes Trump look less sleazy.

Headline: “GOP uneasy with Giuliani”

It’s NOT Just Trump (Limerick)

Tuesday, October 1st, 2019

In Trump scandals and crimes. One could weep
At their ethics-free acts
And their freedom from facts.
As for consciences? Dead, or asleep.

Monday, September 30th, 2019

Headline: “Staring down impeachment, Trump sees himself as a victim of historic proportions”

Poor Donald’s a “martyr.” Boo-hoo!

He bitches and moans
And wallows in groans,
Cheered on by his base — “victims” too.

Trump Turning Point??? (Limerick)

Saturday, September 28th, 2019

The news has unfolded so fast,
That I’m dizzy; both pleased and aghast.
Do I fin’ly dare think
That we’re poised on the brink
Of dispensing with Donald at last?

One Crime Too Many? (Limerick)

Wednesday, September 25th, 2019

Trump’s a knave who has gone way too far.

An impeachment is nigh.
There’s no choice, and here’s why:
Trump behaves like a tyrant and czar.

People fret: “What if Donald Trump loses,
And when told to step down, he refuses?”
No prob! End of term,
Dump that blood-sucking worm
At any Trump golf course he chooses.

Limerick Ode To The “Never Wrong” Trump

Friday, September 6th, 2019

Headline: “Analysis: Storm spat underscores Mr. Never Wrong’s mindset”

Trump admit a mistake? No not ever!
He must keep his base thinking he’s clever;
So though facts may be clear,
Donald never will veer
From his “THEY’RE wrong! I’m perfect!” endeavor.

Thursday, September 5th, 2019

Headline: “Trump may have broken federal law by altering Hurricane Dorian’s path on a map to validate his false claim that it could hit Alabama”

He prefers to tell lies or to fake
“Proof” that shows he’s correct;
Alt’ring docs to deflect
Any blame. What a cowardly snake!

“Moscow Mitch” Revisited (Limerick)

Headline: “A very annoyed Mitch McConnell would like everyone to stop calling him ‘Moscow Mitch'”

When the name “Moscow Mitch” is deployed,
Mitch McConnell is vexed and annoyed:
It’s “not fair” — not a keeper.
(He’s fine with “Grim Reaper.”)
Where his conscience should be, there’s a void.

Trump Messing With The Wrong Actress (Limerick)

Sunday, September 1st, 2019

The Donald is twitter-obsessing,
And his topic this times’s Debra Messing.
But his story won’t sell;
Used his “called me “Sir” tell.
Trump feels threatened by Debra, I’m guessing.

Unsuitable Anger (Limerick)

Wednesday, August 28th, 2019

There once was a scandal so bad,
That many lashed out at the cad
Who dared wear a tan suit
In the White House. The brute!!!
It’s amazing what once made folks mad.

Limerick Ode To The Self-Proclaimed Oval “Chosen One”

Wednesday, August 21st, 2019

“The Chosen One” — given the nod
To do and to say
Any thing, any day —
No matter how crazy or flawed.

Headline: “Trump Blames ‘Racism Witch Hunt’ for Low Poll Numbers”

Donald’s numbers seem stuck in a slump,
And the media caused it, claims Trump:
It’s “a Racism Witch Hunt.”
(His pass-the-blame glitch-hunt —
Self-pitying tweet from his rump.)

Try To Relax! (Limerick)

Thursday, August 15th, 2019

When pressure has taken its toll,
Relaxation’s a laudable goal.
But getting there’s hard
If your path remains marred
By Donald’s eluding the Hole.

(National Relaxation Day is August 15.)

Cuz of Donald, we’re all in the clover.
Yet another vow “kept”
By the crude and inept
Evil-spirited, white-hate-crime drover.

Limerick Ode To The Hate-Crime-Inspirer-In-Chief

Sunday, August 4th, 2019

White Nationalists feel empowered
By the Donald, a bully and coward.
So it’s hardly surprising
That hate crimes are rising.
I can’t wait till the Oval’s been scoured.

Open Limerick To Democratic Pols

Tuesday, July 23rd, 2019

No matter what Democrats do,
We’ll be labelled a socialist crew.
Don’t deny or adapt;
By such spews, don’t be trapped.
And, instead, to your conscience be true.
