Rudy Giuliani to Chuck Todd: “Truth isn’t truth.”
Says Rudy, truth doesn’t exist.
(That lesson in law school I missed.)
Seems reality’s dire
Cuz Trump is a liar,
And the truth can no longer assist.
Rudy’s Nuts and That’s The “Truth”
August 19th, 2018Gangster Trump Calls John Dean A “RAT” (Limerick)
August 19th, 2018Donald Trump describes Dean as a “RAT.”
How revealing an attitude’s that!

White House crimes, but Trump chose
Gangster slang — law and order my hat!
McGahn’s The Man (Limerick)
August 18th, 2018Headline: “White House Counsel Has Cooperated Extensively With Mueller’s Obstruction Inquiry”
When the Russia probe shit hits the fan,
The fallout won’t land on McGahn.
No he won’t take the fall;
He’s been giving his all
To assisting Bob Mueller. Smart man!
Just Call Donald “His Highness” (Limerick)
August 18th, 2018Headline: “Brennan Says Trump Is ‘Drunk on Power’”
Donald Trump wants his critics to cower,
So he punishes them with a glower.
Since his only concern
Is himself, he will spurn
All restraint, for he’s dead drunk on power.
Trump Won’t Get To Reign In His Parade (Limerick)
August 17th, 2018No parade for the Donald! How SAD!
And needless to say, the man’s mad;
He’d looked forward to riding
A tank and presiding
In autocrat fashion … like Vlad.
Limerick Ode To Omarosa
August 10th, 2018Omarosa, I’d love to believe
All your claims about Trump, but I grieve,
Cuz as much as they sound
Like the Donald, I’m bound
To discount them; like Trump, you deceive.
Trump’s Migrating Standards (Limerick)
August 9th, 2018Headline: “Melania Trump’s Parents Become U.S. Citizens, Using ‘Chain Migration’ Trump Hates”
The Donald condemns “chain migration”
To enthused and extended ovation.
Yet his wife seems quite pleased
To exploit it. It eased
Her mom and dad’s path to our nation.
Trump Puts Press At Risk (Limerick)
August 9th, 2018Headline: “Media boost security as Trump ramps up ‘enemy’ rhetoric”
When the media covers Trump rallies,
It’s as risky as ent’ring dark allies.
Donald’s shown us his cards,
So the press now needs guards
Due to menacing crowds and threat tallies.
The GOP’s “Blue Wave” Blues (Limerick)
August 9th, 2018Headline: “4 signs of a blue wave from Election Day: Republicans should be running scared”

As creating a GOP slump.
But not Donald! He’ll brag
And pretend the “Trump drag”
Is “fake news,” as our “blue wave” odds jump.
Limerick Ode To Republican Chris Collins
August 8th, 2018Headline: “New York Republican Rep. Chris Collins indicted on insider trading charges”
Chris Collins is under arrest
For fraud and false statements. Obsessed
With great greed, Chris misleads,
Commits crimes and misdeeds,
As he does what his party does best.
Hypocritical Pence (Limerick)
August 8th, 2018Mike Pence’s hypocrisy cries out for a limerick:
Vice President Mike Pence once argued the president of the United States should be held to the highest moral standards to determine whether he should resign or be removed from office.”
Pence made the argument in two columns in the late 1990s, where he wrote that then-President Bill Clinton’s admission of an affair with a White House intern and prior lies to the public about the matter, possibly under oath, meant Clinton should be removed from office.
When Bill Clinton was Prez, Pence decried
And denounced Bill’s affairs. How he tried
To get Clinton expelled.
But such quibbles seem quelled;
He’s Trump’s VEEP now, so standards have died.
Open Limerick To The White House Press
August 6th, 2018White House briefings don’t give us the news.
No instead they spread self-serving views
And start lie-fest infernos.
They demonize journos.
Why attend them? The press should refuse.
Russia Meddling Quatrain Duo
August 3rd, 2018Donald’s lawyer is rather a cut up,
Saying Mueller should “put up or shut up.”
While Rudy tells lies and lets loose,
Mueller quietly tightens the noose.
*****
Stop trying to peddle
the weasel-word “meddle.”
‘Twas a Russian attack,
so soft-ped’ling it’s whack.
*****
Trump Spreads Fake News About Grocery Shopping (Limerick)
August 1st, 2018Headline: “Trump appears not to understand grocery shopping in latest push for voter ID laws”
Oh where is my photo I.D.?
I need to buy food. Woe is me!
It’s missing, so now
I can’t buy any chow
Says the Donald. (Not even fresh brie?)
My Latest Mantra (Limerick)
July 31st, 2018It’s hot as I walk down the street,
And I really can’t take all this heat.
But reciting this phrase
Helps cure my malaise:
“The heat’s after Trump.” (Rinse, repeat.)
Trump Cavorts On Twitter (Limerick)
July 29th, 2018Trump Tweet: “I would be willing to “shut down” government if the Democrats do not give us the votes for Border Security, which includes the Wall! Must get rid of Lottery, Catch & Release etc. and finally go to system of Immigration based on MERIT! We need great people coming into our Country!”
Watch Donald on Twitter cavort,
As he tortures his party for sport:
Fully fund my great wall
Or I’ll close you down. All
Will go dark. Then I’ll see you in court.
Vlad Visit Interruptus? (Limerick)
July 24th, 2018Headline: “Kremlin: Russia not ready to accept Trump invite to Washington”
Over hosting old Vlad, Trump’s been heady.
But the Kremlin says Putin’s not ready
To say “Da” to a visit.

Poor Trump hoped the two would go steady.
Unfashionable Ivanka (Limerick)
July 24th, 2018Headline: “Ivanka Trump’s fashion company is shutting down”

Her fashion line’s gone, staffers canned.
Now if only the same
Could be said of the blame-
Shifting man who’s destroying our land.
