Victim-In-Chief Trump (Limerick)

Thursday, November 12th, 2020

Headline: “Trump wants to be forced out”

Trump’s a “victim” who’s constantly peeved;
He’s “defrauded,” “maligned,” even “thieved.”
Is martyrdom great
For his brand? Yes, damn straight!
Like his base, Donald’s always aggrieved.

Transition Madness (Limerick)

Wednesday, November 11th, 2020

Headline: “How Trump’s transition of power delay threatens national security and public safety”

Joe’s win’s been established with surety.
Yet Trump shows his lack of maturity:
To impede Joe’s transition
Is reckless; Trump’s mission
Is risking our nation’s security.

Open Limerick To Donald Trump

Wednesday, November 11th, 2020

Dear Donald, you’ve lost. Joe has won.
Your plan to stay put’s been undone.
And your sore-loser acts
Do not change any facts;
There’s no fraud, so your win chance is NONE!

The Trump Enablers Are Still Enabling (Limerick)

Tuesday, November 10th, 2020

Headline: “By humoring Trump, the GOP is enabling authoritarianism”

The GOP’s humoring Trump
Cuz they’re scared of that venomous grump,
Who’s vindictive and bitter —
Might diss them on Twitter.
So they skitter and dodge; each a chump.

Yet Another “If Trump Could Write Limericks”

Saturday, November 7th, 2020

It’s FAKE NEWS that I lost out to Joe;
He’s a Liar, a Fraud, and a Schmo!
I will NEVER stop Suing,
Berating, and Booing.
Will I vacate the Oval? HELL, NO!!!

How Donald Will Handle Loss (Limerick)

Wednesday, November 4th, 2020

Will Donald Trump ever concede?
I doubt it; that sort of a deed
Requires some class.
Needy Donald’s an ass.
Self-promotion is Trump’s only creed.

My Worried Prediction (Limerick)

Sunday, November 1st, 2020

Donald Trump will be jumping the gun
And loudly proclaiming “I won!”
He’ll ignore the result
And give cues to his cult
That it’s time for some bloodthirsty “fun.”

Limerick Ode To the Boaster-In-Chief

Sunday, November 1st, 2020

Using any excuse for a boast,
Trump will brag via speech, tweet, or post:
He’s the best and the greatest
(And no doubt the straightest.)
Another four years … and we’re toast!

Trepidatious Times (Limerick)

Sunday, November 1st, 2020

How I long to at last feel elation.
But for now, all I feel’s trepidation.
I’ll be filled with chagrin,
If Joe doesn’t win;
What we’ll face is our nation’s ruination.

GOP Quandary

Saturday, October 31st, 2020

Headline: “Trump drags down GOP senators, giving Democrats more paths to the majority”

Mitch McConnell and Co bet it all
On the Donald, but in the long haul,
Having pinned hopes and dreams
For their vile, evil schemes
On that crook, they are bound for a fall.

Trump Musing About Losing (Limerick)

Thursday, October 29th, 2020

Headline: “Trump Ponders Being a Loser”

I hear tell that the Donald’s been musing
About maybe, conceivably losing.
It’s a frightening thought,
For his future is fraught;
Relocation to prison is bruising.

Trump Supporters Left Out In The Cold (Limerick)

Thursday, October 29th, 2020

Headline: “Hundreds stranded in the cold waiting for buses in chaotic post-Trump rally scene”

Trump fans were left out in the cold
At an Omaha rally, we’re told.
Freezing temps — people stranded,
Their treatment offhanded;
Cast aside like they’re garbage or mold.

Election Angst (Limerick)

Thursday, October 29th, 2020

Election Day’s coming up soon.
I’m so anxious, I’m likely to swoon.
Will Biden prevail?
If he doesn’t, I’ll wail;
Can’t survive four more years of that loon!

Trump, An Insurgent??? (Limerick)

Wednesday, October 28th, 2020

Trump pretends that he’s still an insurgent.
His impulse to dupe us is urgent,
Cuz incumbents take blame;
Trump wants fault-free acclaim.
Here’s what I want: A White House Detergent.

The Whiner-in-Chief Bashes Fox (Limerick)

Tuesday, October 27th, 2020

Donald Trump loves to rant, rave, and whine,
Like when two-timing Fox crossed the line:
Air a speech by Obama?
How dare they! What trauma!
Donald’s view: “They should only air mine!”

“Rounding The Turn?” Or Chasing Our Tails? (Limerick)

Monday, October 26th, 2020

“We’re rounding the turn,” Trump proclaims;
Deception’s but one of his games.
His rallies are reckless,
His mask-mocking, feckless.
Is disease-spreading one of his aims?

Yet Another “If Trump Could Write Limericks”

Friday, October 23rd, 2020

It’s clear I’m the best and the brightest,
The most fair (and when need be) most rightest.
I’m the strongest, the toughest
Yes, even the buffest
I’m a genius … and also the Whitest.

Wishful Thinking (Limerick)

Thursday, October 22nd, 2020

As the Joe/Donald battle is fought,
Muting Trump is an excellent thought.
I just wish it could last
Past debate night; Trump’s blast
Gently dulled, if not dampened to naught.

Trump’s GOP Enemies List (Limerick)

Sunday, October 18th, 2020

Headline: “Trump Is Taking Down Names as Republicans Begin Jumping Ship on His ‘Totally Off the Rails’ Campaign”

Donald Trump has been taking down names
Of Republican pols whom he blames
For their last minute swipes
And anti-Trump gripes:
No more favors from Trump, he proclaims.

Tardy Trump Critiques (Limerick)

Saturday, October 17th, 2020

Headline: “GOP senator unloads on Trump in constituent call, saying ‘he mocks evangelicals’ and has ‘flirted with White supremacists'”

Some Republican pols like Ben Sasse,
Have just noticed that Donald’s an ass.
Their belated critiques
(Pre-election — 3 weeks)
Bear the stench of intestinal gas.
