Is Mueller about to be canned?
Does Trump have a “massacre” planned?
Will Congress preempt
Any heinous attempt,
Leaving Donald verklempt and unmanned?

Trump’s Next Move (Limerick)
Tuesday, October 31st, 2017The Fog of Trump Lore (Limerick)
Monday, October 30th, 2017Mueller’s news has the public agog,
So the White House keeps drumming up fog.
Mass confusion’s its aim;
Soon the Donald will claim
That Clinton’s been beating her dog.
The Non-Case For Hillary’s Collusion (Limerick)
Saturday, October 28th, 2017Hill colluded with Russia? Explain
How that makes any sense, cuz my brain
Can not fathom collusion
To cause a profusion
Of harm to her own prez campaign.
The Distraction Game (Limerick)
Saturday, October 28th, 2017Mueller’s team has been hustling and humming;
Rumor has it arrests are forthcoming.
While we wait, watch the right,
Armed and eager to fight,
Weave their web of distractions mind-numbing.
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.
Mueller’s Halloween Surprise?
Friday, October 27th, 2017Is Trump in the throes of affrightment
Over news about Mueller’s indictment?
Who’s been charged? We don’t know
Cuz it’s sealed. Even so,
I’m aglow with a growing excitement.
Trump’s GOP Critics (Limerick)
Wednesday, October 25th, 2017“Republican Pols Lashing Out
At Trump.” That’s the headline they tout.
But it’s only some guys
Who’ve concluded it wise
Not to run again. Hardly a rout!
The Trump Threat (Limerick)
Saturday, October 21st, 2017Is Donald a threat to free press?
Well of course my response must be yes.
But much more is in peril
From President Feral;
There’s no end to his menacing mess.
*****
As I train my brain
on our Oval Office bane,
staying sane’s a strain.

Limerick Ode To the Destroyer-In-Chief
Wednesday, October 18th, 2017Be it treaty or deal, Trump will break it.
There’s a health law folks need? He’ll forsake it.
Then post-wrecking with relish,
He’ll greatly embellish
Praise due him, when others remake it.
*****
Headline: “GOP Lawmaker Suggests People with HIV Be Quarantined”
Mad Kane Suggests GOP Lawmakers Be Quarantined.
*****
Remember when Trump
promised to drain DC swamp,
Then swamped it instead?
*****
Dear Donald: It’s bad enough that you’ve made me miss Dubya! But making me miss Dick Cheney? How COULD you!!!
*****
Those Military Bereavement Calls (Limerick)
Wednesday, October 18th, 2017Making service-death phone calls is tough
And, alas, Donald lacks the right stuff.
So although I believed
He should call the bereaved,
Never mind. They have suffered enough!
What Trump’s Done To Our Nation’s Reputation (Limerick)
Tuesday, October 17th, 2017Headline: “Thanks to Trump, America’s word is now worthless”
The word of our nation’s now worthless
Thanks to Donald, whose decency’s birthless.
Despite sweeping appeals,
Trump’s destroyed all our deals.
(So sorry for verse that is mirthless.)
Thanks to the Washington Post’s Paul Waldman for inspiring this limerick!
Limerick Ode To Trump Suck-Ups
Tuesday, October 17th, 2017Trump enablers and suck-ups, I trust
You’re aware that your scheme has gone bust.
Trump took YOU for a ride
And has cast you aside.
Donald’s self-lust trumps all. You’re just dust.
Limerick Ode To Our Braggart-In-Chief
Wednesday, October 11th, 2017How sad that Trump’s sooooo insecure,
Such a braggart and bully and boor.
Some were hoping he’d grow
In the Oval, but no…
Though there’s MORE of the “man” to endure.
*****
Headline: “A pair of crises tests Trump’s presidential empathy”
Testing Trump’s empathy is like testing a jellyfish’s spine.
*****
Headline “Democrats Seek to Make Ryan a Villain”
Isn’t Ryan ALREADY a VILLAIN?
*****
Like Trump and his supporters, I too miss the good old days — days when somebody else (even Dubya) was occupying the Oval.
*****
“Trump: ‘Disgusting’ press able to write whatever it wants”
Me: Disgusting president able to say whatever he wants.
*****
How I long for the good old days when our policy of containment dealt with foreign enemies; NOT the threat who’s occupying the Oval!
*****
“Jimmy Carter offers to hold peace talks with Kim Jong Un”
How about holding peace talks with Trump/Corker or Trump/Tillerson?
*****
Since Trump’s so obsessed with size (Little Marco, Liddle Bob) from now on I’m calling him Tubby Trump.
*****
“Pence Walks Out of Game Over Anthem Protest”
Headline SHOULD Read: “Pence Wastes Taxpayers’ Dollars Staging Sham Walk-Out”
*****
Offended by birth control and gays? No problem!
Trump/Sessions Doctrine: Religious freedom means freedom to discriminate.
*****
Breaking News: “State Dept: Tillerson did not call Trump ‘moron'”
That’s factually true; he actually called him “fucking moron.”
*****
Headline: “Most Partisans Have Few Friends In Other Party”
Could it be all that stress from dealing with RELATIVES in other party?
*****
Trump’s Small-Minded Name-Calling (Limerick)
Tuesday, October 10th, 2017“Trump Mocks Bob Corker’s Height, Escalating Feud with a Key Republican”
Childish name-calling’s Donald’s delight,
Like his small-minded mock’ry of height.
He’s a YUUUUUGE stature snob,
Which explains “Liddle Bob.”
Trump thinks nicknaming Corker shows might!
Trump/Pence Flag Abuse (Limerick)
Monday, October 9th, 2017Donald Trump was again on the hunt
For distraction — a tax-funded stunt,
So he told his Veep-peon
To locate a knee on
The ground and to flag the affront.
Taking umbrage at “sins” and “misdeeds”
Is Mike’s hobby; that’s how the guy feeds.
Off he flies to a game
With his pre-ordained claim:
Those Flag-bashing blacks are bad seeds!
Trump v. The Press (Limerick)
Thursday, October 5th, 2017Donald Trump’s always fighting a war on
The media, trying to score on
The press via Twitter.
The fellow’s a bitter
And nasty old man and a MORON!
Donald and Rex (Parody Dialogue)
Wednesday, October 4th, 2017Parody Dialogue (I’m almost positive it never took place.)
TRUMP: You’re to hold an immediate press conference and announce that you NEVER called me a “moron.”
TILLERSON: “Never’s” a strong word.
TRUMP: And that of all 50 U.S. presidents, I’m the smartest.
TILLERSON: We’ve been through this before, sir: 50 states. 45 presidents. That’s why we call you “45.”
TRUMP: I know that!
TILLERSON: Anything else sir? Perhaps I should say you have a 180 IQ.
TRUMP: Good idea, but make it 200.
TILLERSON: I was being sarc…
TRUMP: In fact, make it an even 225.
TRUMP: (Turning to General Kelly) You see? Now THAT’S how you negotiate!
