There’s no doubt that the Donald’s a racist.
Both he and his base are the basest.
Trump misleads by example.
His evils are ample.
He’s of all of our pols the disgracest.

The Trumpy Basics (Limerick)
Sunday, July 21st, 2019Trumpy Disavowals (Limerick)
Saturday, July 20th, 2019Headline: “Trump Disavows His Disavowal”
Stay tuned for Trump’s disavowal of his disavowal of his disavowal.
*****
Disavowals by Trump can’t be trusted.
If needed, they’ll soon be adjusted;
When he faces his base,
Red meat is his ace.
So do NOT be appeased. Be disgusted!
When The President’s A Liar…
Friday, July 19th, 2019Headline: “Iran denies Trump claim that US destroyed drone over Gulf”
Donald claims that we downed Iran’s drone,
But Iran doesn’t grumble or groan.
No, instead it denies
It was hit in the skies;
When two liars face off … nothing’s known.
Paul Ryan’s Belated Trump Critique (Limerick)
Friday, July 12th, 2019Headline: “Paul Ryan: Trump ‘didn’t know anything about government’ and ‘I wanted to scold him all the time'”
Craven Ryan is finally “brave,”
Slamming Donald, the President/Knave.
When it mattered, he’d cower.
Now Paul’s out of power;
Missed his op to stop Donald’s crime wave.
What I Won’t Call Donald Trump (Limerick)
Tuesday, July 9th, 2019I’m often inclined to admonish
The Donald; his actions astonish.
Trump’s the King of “Fake News,”
But I’d never accuse
Him of being the slightest bit “donnish.”
Thanks to Dictionary.com’s Word of the Day feature, I now know that “donnish” means bookish and pedantic.
A Trumpian 4th (2-Verse Limerick)
Thursday, July 4th, 2019Donald’s pulling out all of the stops,
Treating tanks and our troops just like props;
Using taxpayer cash,
He’s subverting this bash
To flex his tyrannical chops.
Trump’s despoiling the 4th; he’s hell-bent
On saluting himself; this event
Is to boost reelection.
He fears our rejection.
Let’s make sure that to prison he’s sent.
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!
Limerick Ode To The Campaigner-In-Chief
Wednesday, June 19th, 2019Donald’s running again? What a “shock!”
His “relaunch” (so-called) is a crock.
He treats his campaign
As his job. That’s been plain
From the day of his swearing-in squawk.
If Trump Could Write Limericks
Thursday, June 13th, 2019If Trump could write limericks:
Dear nations, both friendly and not,
I need dirt. Send me all that you’ve got.
You’ll be might’ly rewarded,
If Dems are all thwarted.
Name your price. I am easily bought.
Open Limerick To Joe Biden
Wednesday, June 12th, 2019I joked, yesterday, that because Biden called Trump an “existential threat,” dictionaries were bracing for the existential threat of site crashes.
But apparently I’m not quite through with the topic. So here’s my limerick:
Dear Joe: Dumping Donald’s essential.
His evil’s widespread — pestilential.
He’s a “threat existential,”
His wrongs, consequential.
But the use of big words? Unprudential!
Those Taxing Tariffs (Limerick)
Wednesday, June 5th, 2019Headline: “Trump’s tariffs might amount to the biggest U.S. tax hike since the 1980s”
And now my two-verse limerick:
A tariff is really a tax
That Trump’s hitting us with to the max,
Just to make his base think
Trump the “tough guy” won’t blink.
Dear voters, please give him the ax.
Donald counts on his fans not to know
That tariffs are taxes, and so
He keeps raising those taxes.
Here’s hoping the ax is
About to deliver its blow.
The Cowardice of Mere Censure (Limerick)
Wednesday, June 5th, 2019Headline: “Censure rather than impeach? Hell no, Democrats — that’s inexcusable cowardice”
Censure Trump? That’s a weenie’s way out!
The Dems need to exercise clout
And impeach the damn sleaze;
Bring that lout to his knees!
Just how many more laws must he flout?!?
Trump’s McCain-Phobia (Limerick)
Monday, June 3rd, 2019Headline: “Navy acknowledges request to hide McCain warship”
The Donald’s a delicate flower,
Who readily freaks and turns dour
At the thought of McCain,
So the name of his bane
On a ship makes him shudder and glower.
Whiner-In-Chief (Limerick)
Thursday, May 23rd, 2019Trump Tweet: “PRESIDENTIAL HARASSMENT!”
Donald whines both on Twitter and cable:
“I am being harassed!” (That’s a fable.)
Yet his base seems to buy
Trump’s self-branded “Tough Guy!” —
A strange label for one so unstable.
Grassley’s Gonna Sit Right Down and Write The Prez a Letter
Tuesday, May 14th, 2019From the Washington Post, re Trump’s tariffs:
“Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) said he planned to write a letter to Trump to explain the concerns of farmers because he felt the argument he had repeatedly made to the president in person was not registering.”
I apologize to Ahlert and Young for these song parody lyrics:
I’m gonna sit right down and write the Prez a letter
And make believe that Trump can read.
I’m gonna write words, oh, so sweet.
They’re gonna help guys growing wheat.
A lotta kisses on Trump’s bottom.
He’ll be glad he got ’em.
I’m gonna smile and say I hope he’ll end his tariffs.
Then I’ll close with love the way I do.
I’m gonna sit right down and write to help the farmers.
And pray my letter helps me too.
Don Jr. Is Lucky It’s JUST A Subpoena (Limerick)
Sunday, May 12th, 2019Like Rachel Maddow, I think Don Jr. is lucky it’s JUST a subpoena. (He could have been hit with a perjury indictment referral like other such liars.)
Poor Donald Trump Jr. is mad;
A subpoena’s been served on the lad.
But he’s dodged a referral
For perj’ry — demurral?!?
He should THANK Richard Burr and be glad!
Trump’s Tariff Whopper (Limerick)
Sunday, May 12th, 2019Donald Trump likes to brag and enthrall,
By claiming his tariffs are all
Paid by China — a LIE
That his base seems to buy…
Just like Mexico’s paid for the wall.
“Case” Not So “Closed” (Limerick)
Thursday, May 9th, 2019“Members of President Trump’s inner circle are frustrated that the Republican-led Senate Intelligence Committee subpoenaed Donald Trump Jr.,” according to CNN.
It’s over and done, so “case closed,”
Says McConnell, yet Burr has imposed
A subpoena on one
Of Trump’s sons. (NOT so done!)
Here’s hoping Don Jr. is hosed.
I Dislike Likability (Limerick)
Sunday, May 5th, 2019Headline: “Is ‘Likability’ Biased Towards Men?”
“Likability” — what a odd word;
It appears that most any male turd
Can be deemed by the press
As more likable — yes —
Than a non-turd-like female. Absurd!
Whiner-In-Chief (Limerick)
Sunday, May 5th, 2019Headline: “Trump: 2 years of my term were ‘stollen’”
The first half of Trump’s term has been “stollen,”
Complains Donald by tweet; he is all-in
On his claim of harassment.
His Twitter amassment
Of gripes shows the guy can’t stop bawlin’.
