This comment by former GOP Rep. Barbara Comstock made me laugh and inspired my latest limerick: “If Donald Trump disappeared tomorrow, I don’t think you’d have many Republicans in the search party. Maybe a few prosecutors. But not Republicans.”
If Trump disappeared, just how hard
Would pols look for that large tub of lard?
Who but those with indictments
Would have the incitements
To secure him in jail under guard?

Will Trump’s CFO drop a dime
On the Donald? It’s surely high time!
A grand jury’s convened,
So here’s hoping that fiend
Is convicted of many a crime.

Headline: “CNN Drops Rick Santorum After Racist Comments About Native Americans”
CNN has dumped Rick J. Santorum
(Though Republicans seem to adore’m.)
With insults creative,
He dissed all our Native
Americans, breaching decorum.

If you’re wond’ring how Trump’s blog has fared,
Donald’s blog posts are NOT widely shared.
His traffic has slumped,
And his fans don’t seem pumped.
Could it be they’re no longer ensnared?

After learning that New York AG Letitia James is pursuing a criminal investigation into the Trump Organization, and that she’s working with Manhattan DA Cy Vance, Donald Trump posted a lengthy blog rant, which could have benefited from paragraphing … and sanity.
Donald Trump seems distressed and upset.
It appears he is starting to fret
That he’ll spend his last days
In prolonged prison stays.
James and Vance pose a serious threat!

Will SCOTUS reverse Roe v. Wade?
The bricks for that act have been laid;
All the Justices named
By Trump have long aimed
At ensuring that “choice” rights degrade.

Headline: “Cheney, stripped of leadership position, vows to keep Trump from returning to presidency”
Liz Cheney’s been rudely expelled
From the leadership post that she held.
Now the House GOP
Is hoping to be
Free to parrot Trump’s lies, with Liz quelled.
But this ouster won’t stop her from speaking;
She’ll keep Trump-centric BS critiquing.
Liz will fight back with vigor,
Her megaphone bigger,
As she calls out the havoc Trump’s wreaking.

Headline: “Kevin McCarthy is pushing Liz Cheney out for saying almost exactly what he said after January 6”
Kev McCarthy’s politically hollow;
There is only one person he’ll follow,
And it’s scam-meister Trump!
You won’t ass-kiss that lump?
That’s one “crime” Kev refuses to swallow.

Headline: “McConnell says he’s ‘100%’ focused on stopping Biden admin”
Mitch McConnell has one loathsome goal:
It’s to block Joseph Biden; the hole
In his soul’s been exposed,
Mitch’s mind’s long been closed;
V. Obama, he played the same role.

The state of the GOP’s dire;
It’s led by a guy who’s a liar.
And its members must swallow
Trump’s bullshit and wallow
In muck to survive, or move higher.

Do you remember all those claims that Trump would be launching a “social media platform” that would “redefine social media?” Well, it’s been launched … and it doesn’t:
Have you seen Trump’s new “platform?” It’s sad!
“Redefines” social medya? Egad!
A mere blog! That is all
That it is. So banal
And bare-bones – the mere inverse of rad!

Headline: “Scoop: GOP leaders threaten Cheney ouster”
Will Liz Cheney be ousted from leadership?
That’s a question that media readership
Has been asking these days,
Lured by clickbaiting ways
Used by writers in columns and Tweetership.

Rudy’s warrants were blocked by Bill Barr.
No surprise! We all knew Barr’d go far
To forestall any threat
To Trump, and abet
Donald’s pals. So for Barr, that’s on par.
