Headline: “Trump Keeps Floating A Possible Third Term”
Trump is eyeing a THIRD term. (Big Sigh!)
Is it likely that Donald will try?
Experts deem it illegal,
But Trump thinks he’s regal–
That there’s nothing his power can’t buy.

I used to be able to write funny limericks. But these days, most of them are serious and depressing. This excellent Karen Tumulty column largely inspired this one:
An Executive Branch run amok!
Sen. “Advice and Consent?” No such luck!
Our Democracy’s hacked
And our nation’s soul’s cracked.
So what else can one say except FUCK!?!

Washington Post Headline: “Republican skeptics cave on Trump’s most controversial Cabinet picks”
The Republican Sens. are compliant;
Against Donald they’re rarely defiant,
Which means bad nominees
Are approved with great ease…
Although each one’s the inverse of giant.

The Donald is flooding the zone
With horrors that none should condone.
But his party just cowers,
Supporting “Trump’s powers.”
No objections or gripes — not a groan!

Axios Headline: “Trump launches meme coin, apparently makes more than $25 billion overnight”
Trump made $25 “yards” overnight
With the $TRUMP coin — his new grifting blight.
By the way, “yard’s” a billion;
No NOT a mere million–
Bigly duping the not-very-bright.

Trump’s reelection
Shameful watershed moment–
Many tears were shed.
*****
Tesla truck explodes
in front of a Trump Hotel–
Metaphor writes self.
*****
MAGA v. Reason–
ever-widening schism
with no bridge in sight.

“Tell me Sir, what’s your best resolution?”
Getting vengeance with each prosecution!
Also closing the borders,
Undoing Joe’s orders,
And trashing the damn Constitution!
Then there’s placing high tariffs galore
To give nations a giant what-for,
Getting rid of non-whites
And that dumb Bill of Rights,
Plus I’ll dump X-man Musk. What a bore!

The Republicans’ game is a mess.
Think they know what they’re doing? (God bless!)
At best, they are wreckers.
They’re NOT playing checkers.
And they’re certainly NOT playing chess!

Upon Elon’s command, Johnson’s bill
Was withdrawn. Seems it gives Musk a thrill
To rob Trump of his job.
And so (yessiree Bob!)
Trump and Johnson must swallow this pill.

I was about to say that the Disney/ABC $15 million cave to Trump was the final straw. But alas, I fear there will be many more straws:
Dear Press: Don’t obey in advance.
Don’t succumb to Trump’s arrogant dance.
If you do, you’ll be under
His thumb — torn asunder;
Vanquished victims of Trump’s rancid rants.

After learning that “enshittification” is a real word, I couldn’t resist using it in a limerick. (Yes, it means precisely what it sounds like.)
Trump is back, so truth’s value has dived,
And enshittification’s arrived!
Fabrications reap wins;
Seems no matter the sins,
Some can flourish (all grins) rank revived.

I just read that Trump’s selling cologne!
Brand new grifting from Trump? Hold the phone!
I am stunned, simply shocked
And amazed, startled, rocked
That the thief’s stock of rip-offs has grown!

Donald’s picks, on the whole, are all feckless.
There’s no vetting, alas. They are checkless.
Trump gives standards short shrift,
But his process is swift.
It’s a cinch being quick when you’re reckless!

The old “Gray Lady’s” falling in line,
Cov’ring Trump with no hint of a spine.
I’m so sick of its false
Equiv’lency waltz!
Is it fair to the Dems? I say Nein!
I would stop our subscription today.
But, alas, my dear spouse says, “No! Nay!”
He has wearied of hearing
My New York Times jeering.
So it’s here, where I must have my say.

When a Trump pick is forced to withdraw
Over sex-crimes, or some other flaw,
It seems likely, alas,
That an even worse ass
Will be named to help Trump flout the law.

Donald’s win in November is galling,
And his Cabinet picks are appalling.
The one qualification
To garner such station?
Trump allegiance. Democracy’s bawling!

Biden’s pardoning Hunter, I’ve read.
I hope Dems put their bitching to bed.
Please don’t huff and/or puff.
Hunter’s suffered enough!
Think how pissed Trump will be! Enough said!

Four more years of a man who’s our bane?
A vile pol with a venomous brain?
What’s the crux of the matter?
Trump’s foul — a Mad Hatter,
Whose win on the 5th is insane!
