Not Everyone Deserves Civility (Limerick)

I endeavor to practice civility
To the best of my practiced ability.
But Trump and his cronies–
All cold-hearted phonies–
Have earned NAUGHT but my heartfelt hostility.

More Melania Hypocrisy (Limerick)

June 25th, 2018

To stop being a louse.
I suspect, though, he won’t do your bidding.

Trump Staffers Have Forfeited Civility (Limerick)

June 24th, 2018

If Only Trump Could Write Limericks…

June 16th, 2018

Headline: “Trump grumbles that North Korea deal not earning wide praise”

Two-Way Scam? (Limerick)

And proceeds to have fun
Scamming fans via victory show.

Putin’s Investment Pays Off (Limerick)

Maligning our allies;
Once united, we’re naught but benighted.

GOP — where insanity’s born.

Our Petulant President (Limerick)

May 27th, 2018

Trump dishonors the war dead via Memorial Day Weekend tweets:

It’s not war dead he mourns,
But a “witch hunt” he scorns —
Selfish, petulant Trump on display!

Trump Chickens Out Of Summit (Limerick)

And won. Snowflake Donald is focked.

Desperation, as deal odds grow dim.

Trump Trumped By Leaks (Limerick)

May 15th, 2018

Trump Tweet: “The so-called leaks coming out of the White House are a massive over exaggeration put out by the Fake News Media in order to make us look as bad as possible. With that being said, leakers are traitors and cowards, and we will find out who they are!”

Though he frequently rails about leaks,
When he ran Trump aired NO such critiques;
Once a WikiLeaks fan,
Now an anti-leak man.
He’s the target? Trump bellows and shrieks.
