As Donald Trump’s dirty deeds mount,
He never is called to account.
This emboldens and stirs him
To escalate — spurs him
To WORSE acts — too many to count.

Donald “Emboldened Rogue” Trump (Limerick)
Wednesday, January 8th, 2020GOP Blockheads Block Witness Demands (Limerick)
Tuesday, January 7th, 2020Hill Headline: “McConnell has the votes to block Democrats’ witness demands in Trump impeachment trial”
Donald Trump’s taken actions illicit,
But Republicans scoff and dismiss it
As perfectly fine
While they toe Mitch’s line…
And that makes them corruptly complicit.
Open Limerick To Republicans
Tuesday, March 20th, 2018Dear Republicans: Jabber is cheap,
And it won’t force the Donald to keep
Mueller’s Russia probe going.
The danger is growing.
You’re emboldening Trump and his Veep.
The GOP Mantra (Limerick)
Saturday, October 28th, 2017O! M! G! Trump’s in trouble! Deflect!
Hit the Left with some bullshit. Infect
All the news with confusion
Encourage delusion!
That’s the GOP mantra unchecked.
Be Careful What You Wish For (Limerick)
Wednesday, May 3rd, 2017As Republicans surely are learning
(Having finally sated their yearning
For one-party rule)
Running government’s cool…
But much harder than blocking and churning.
When Exactly Was Trump Shackled? (Limerick)
Wednesday, October 12th, 2016Does anyone remember Donald Trump being shackled? Me neither.
And yet here’s Trump on Twitter: “It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to.”
It’s time for a two-verse limerick. (5 Lines just aren’t enough.)
Now that Trump’s been “unshackled,” beware:
Donald’s free to be mean as a bear.
Trump the “gentleman’s” done.
Trump the tough guy’s begun;
That’s his threat in an effort to scare.
But this taunt leaves me rather amused,
Because Donald has constantly oozed
Spiteful bile on the stump.
Trump has ALWAYS been Trump,
Spewing lies that are venom-infused.
Mitch McConnell’s Hard Job Of Pretending To Work (Limerick)
Monday, May 2nd, 2016Senate takes 2016 sabbatical
The chamber is in session for the fewest days in 60 years, straining Mitch McConnell’s claim that the chamber is ‘back to work.’
It’s a tough NON-accomplishment race,
But the GOP Senate’s on pace
To work less then it’s ever
Pulled off — this endeavor
Makes “back to work” false on its face.
A Not-So-Fond Farewell to Carly Fiorina (Limerick)
Wednesday, February 10th, 2016Carly’s gone from the race. I won’t miss her.
Though of course if it’s apt, I’ll still diss her.
And I hope she’ll embrace
Someone else in this race…
Cuz I’d love to see Donald Trump kiss her.
What REALLY Scares Me (Limerick)
Tuesday, December 8th, 2015The more loathsome Trump’s statements become,
The more popular Donald’s with some.
It’s not Muslims I fear,
But the folks who hold dear
A vile man who’s both evil and dumb.
What Lies Beneath The Lies (Limerick)
Tuesday, December 1st, 2015When Republican pols take the stage,
Seems deceit has become all the rage,
Cuz no matter how sordid,
Their lies are rewarded.
Waging war on the truth’s become sage.
Yet Another Benghazi Hearing Limerick (2-Verse)
Saturday, October 24th, 2015That GOP slug-fest of jeering
Was a stamina-trial of a hearing,
For the GOP goal
Was to rattle and roll
HRC. But instead? Pro-Hill cheering.
And for those thinking Clinton’s too old
To be prez, they need only behold
The results of that test
Of endurance — she’d best
Hill’ry’s juniors — Olympian gold!
Limerick Ode To The Benghazi-Obsessed Hillary Haters
Friday, October 23rd, 2015The Hillary haters are sad.
They were praying that Hill would do bad
At hearings designed
To put Hill in a bind
And malign, wear her down, drive her mad.
But Hillary won in a rout.
Trey Gowdy and co left no doubt
That her rep they must shatter.
To them, facts don’t matter
In their shamef’ly political bout.
Limerick Ode To Planned Ignorance
Tuesday, October 6th, 2015Limerick Ode To Planned Ignorance
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Planned ignorance, such is the scheme
That conservatives love — what a dream:
Withhold info that’s needed
And ought to be heeded.
That’s the key to get wins for their team.
Whitewashing textbooks and refusing to allow the CDC to study gun violence are but two examples.
What’s Next Post-Boehner? (Limerick)
Sunday, September 27th, 2015Will Boehner’s departure appease
The Tea Party’s wingnut-disease?
Or will it embolden
And make them feel golden–
Resolved to bring all to their knees.
John Boehner Tears (Limerick)
Friday, September 25th, 2015Boehner Tears (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
At Boehner I frequently curse.
He’s inspired much negative verse.
But of this I am sure:
We’ll soon have to endure
A Republican Speaker who’s worse.
I’m No Shrink, But… (Limerick)
Thursday, September 24th, 2015Says Rubio, “Trump’s insecure.”
That assessment does have some allure.
Is the braggart and gloater
And slick self-promoter
Disguising the fact he’s unsure?
I’m no shrink, so I shouldn’t opine,
But I will. (I’ve been drinking some Rhine.)
Compensation for lacks
Could explain his attacks.
Armchair-whining is done — need more wine.
And He’s Out! (Limerick)
Monday, September 21st, 2015Scott Walker’s dropped out of the race
Cuz apparently Walker can’t face
Polling way under “1.”
So he’s back to the fun
Of destroying Wisconsin apace.
Yet Another GOP Debate Limerick
Friday, September 18th, 2015After yesterday’s 3-verser about the 2nd GOP debate, you’d think I’d be done. But apparently not:
How I loathe the “He kept us safe” line.
Jeb’s revived it. How dare he — that swine!
Silly me — I’d have sworn
9-11 was born
On Dub’s watch. Were we safe? I’d say nein.
About Last Night (3-Verse Debate Limerick)
Friday, September 18th, 2015About Last Night (3-Verse Debate Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
As Wednesday’s debate has laid bare,
Donald Trump can spout naught but hot air;
When policy matters
Come up, he’s in tatters.
No detail — just nonsense … and hair.
All his rivals have views I’d forswear.
But at least they have taken some care
To bolster each stand
With some facts, often canned
And untrue — they know fact-checking’s rare.
Fiorina, it seems, was on fire,
And I have to admit I admire
Her talent for lies,
While she’s eyeing the prize
In the fight I’d call “Braggart v. Liar.”
