Headline: “Trump allies worry Cohen will flip.”
Trump cronies are starting to fear
A Mike Cohen betrayal is near;
That when faced with the threat
Of prison, he’ll sweat
And blab secrets that Donald holds dear.

Trump’s Biggest Fear? (Limerick)
Thursday, April 19th, 2018Comey Presses His Case (Limerick)
Monday, April 16th, 2018If you watch tonight’s Comey interview (ABC, 10 PM Eastern) feel free to comment here:
I’m guessing that Trump won’t delight
In the interview airing tonight.
What will Comey disgorge
To ABC’s George?
I presume it won’t help Donald’s plight.
McConnell Stop Trump Tariffs? Don’t Hold Your Breath (Limerick)
Tuesday, April 3rd, 2018Headline: “Mitch McConnell: Trump’s Tariffs Are a ‘Slippery Slope’”
Donald’s tariffs? A “slippery slope,”
Says McConnell. But follow-through? Nope!
Though his warnings are dour,
He won’t use his power
To curb him; that coward can’t cope.
Dow Doldrums (Limerick)
Monday, April 2nd, 2018“The market keeps dropping!” we sob.
And there’s no reassurance from Schwab.
We feel robbed and depressed
And impossibly stressed.
Here’s my message to Donald: Great job!
Goverment By Whim? (Limerick)
Monday, April 2nd, 2018Headline: “Post: As Inner Circle Shrinks, Trump Decisions Even More Driven By Whim”
The Donald seems driven by whim.
It’s a source of his truculent vim.
When it’s time to decide,
Expertise bona fide
Is ignored. Informed choice? Chances dim!
Trump Invites Best Pal Putin To White House (Limerick)
Monday, April 2nd, 2018Headline: “Trump Invites Putin to the White House”
Said Donald to Putin,”Please come
To the White House, my bestie, my chum.
I’ve plum secrets to share,
So I hope you’ll repair
To DC and make Democrats glum.”
My Next Job?
Sunday, April 1st, 2018Very early in my legal career, I worked for a law firm that represented Trump’s father’s real estate company. Consequently, I had some dealings with the Donald. Hence this limerick:
It’s hard for the Donald to hire
A lawyer; his plight’s become dire.
In fact, things are so bad
That he tweeted me: “Mad,
Please come back. Get me out of my mire.”
Donald Trump — Unmasked … and Un-Esq’d (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 27th, 2018The Donald’s a dreadful employer
And a volatile stature-destroyer.
His “art of the deal”
Is to lie, backbite, steal,
Which is why he can’t buy a good lawyer.
Saturday (So Far) Is Trump-Tweet-Free (Limerick)
Saturday, March 24th, 2018The week’s at an end — I’m in heaven —
I’ve a respite from Trump-crap to leaven
With a lim’rick or three;
I’d be gleeful if he
Would go golfing, say, twenty-four seven.
McMaster Replaced By Bolton? Words Fail Me! (Limerick)
Thursday, March 22nd, 2018When the White House is run by a dolt,
And the adults depart, loons exult.
Now McMaster is leaving —
Get ready for grieving;
He’s a victim of John Bolton’s cult.
Farewell To John Dowd (Limerick)
Thursday, March 22nd, 2018Trump’s lawyers are frequently nayed
And their Mueller advice disobeyed.
Donald’s gut rules his mind,
So John Dowd has resigned.
I wish the man luck getting paid!
Is Donald Doomed? (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 20th, 2018This headline (and the column it quotes from) inspired my limerick: “How Stormy Daniels Could Doom Trump’s Presidency.”
Trump’s porn star could doom him. The key is
Donald’s sluttier and sleazier than SHE is!
He exults in his badness.
So SLUT-scorn her? Madness!
It won’t work; she’s as shameless as HE is.
This Is What Guilt Looks Like (Limerick)
Sunday, March 18th, 2018The Donald looks guilty as sin;
His behavior betrays his chagrin
And dismay that his luck
Has run out. He can’t duck
His comeuppance, and nor can his kin.
Trump V. McCabe
Saturday, March 17th, 2018McCabe had been set to retire
On Sunday, but Trump’s filled with ire,
Cuz McCabe’s a supporter
Of Comey. In order
To punish him, Donald says FIRE!
Turnover In Trump-Land (Limerick)
Wednesday, March 14th, 2018This headline cries out for a limerick: “Trump Tires of His Cabinet”
I’m sick of my Cab’net, says Trump.
Dead weight’s got me stuck in a slump.
My key to success is
A team shouting yeses.
Dump ’em all! Watch my poll numbers jump!
Trump Nixes Naysayers (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 13th, 2018Don’t you dare tell the President “No!”
If you do, Trump will deem you a foe.
All dissenters are out.
They have lost all their clout.
Only yes-men can star on his show.
Mike “Trump Enabler” Pompeo, Secy of State? (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 13th, 2018Mike Pompeo for State? He’s a Yes-Man!
To help Donald, he’ll lie and aggress, man.
He’s a hawkish fanatic.
Loves torture! Dogmatic!
As for climate change? Feel my distress, man!
Trump’s Latest Ex Is Rex (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 13th, 2018Rex has rarely done anything right,
And his errors I’d often indict.
But re Russia he’s wise,
So to no one’s surprise
Trump’s response is: Get out of my sight!
Our Vulgarian-In-Chief (Limerick)
Sunday, March 11th, 2018The Donald’s a rambling vulgarian,
Who pretends to be pro-proletarian.
He’s mean and mendacious.
His greed is rapacious.
Don’t revere him? You’re “low-IQ” carrion.
