Headline: “Trump retweets call to fire Fauci amid coronavirus criticism”
Dr. Fauci did something offensive;
He told us the truth — sin expensive!
Breach the loyalty shrine?
Then your job’s on the line
When your boss has derangement extensive.

Fauci On Firing Line? (Limerick)
Monday, April 13th, 2020Enough With Trump’s “New Somber Tone!” (Limerick)
Saturday, April 4th, 2020Headline: “The Media Once Again Heralds Trump’s New Somber ‘Tone'”
Donald’s “somber?” Oh give me a break!
He’s just sad for himself and can’t fake
Any hint of compassion.
(Preferring to cash in?)
The man is a dangerous snake!
“Trump to New York: ‘Stop complaining'” (Limerick)
Thursday, April 2nd, 2020Headline: “Trump to New York: ‘Stop complaining'”
Donald Trump to New York: “Stop complaining,
And act grateful, or I’ll be refraining
From sending more aid.
You have thrown too much shade.
My fake sympathy’s rapidly waning.”
Non-Brief-Briefer-In-Chief (Limerick)
Monday, March 30th, 2020Headline: “As the pandemic rages, the president brags”
Here’s a typical Trump tweet of late:
“My press conf’rence ratings are great!”
On TV, Donald prates
As his ego inflates,
While for briefings from experts we wait.
Irrational Polls (Limerick)
Friday, March 27th, 2020Headline: “Trump’s Approval Jumps Five Points”
A rise in the Donald’s approval
Transcends logic; he merits removal!
Such a gain in our national
Polls is irrational…
As peculiar as numbers from Liouville.*
*If you don’t understand my reference to mathematician Joseph Liouville, here’s a helpful link. And no, I’d never heard of him before, either. But when you’re desperate for a rhyme word, sometimes you have to research math.
Trump Prioritizes Economy Over Lives (Limerick)
Wednesday, March 25th, 2020Headline: “Trump says he wants the country ‘opened up and just raring to go by Easter,’ despite health experts’ warnings”
The Donald’s inclined to retreat
From the fight for our lives, in defeat:
Forget germs! Fill each church!
Watch his policy lurch,
As he spouts off in presser and tweet.
Put A Sock In It, Donald! (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 24th, 2020Donald’s briefings for COVID-19
Should be banished from speaker and screen.
They’re a rally replacement
And lie-packed debasement.
Let the experts (sans Donald!!!) convene.
Essentially New York (Limerick)
Sunday, March 22nd, 2020Headline: “Cheers! New York liquor stores deemed ‘essential’ and can stay open amid coronavirus crisis”
What’s “essential” right here in New York?
Nearly anything needing a fork.
Drugs and paper goods too,
And to this I say, WHEW:
Refreshments that come with a cork.
Under-Deliverer-In-Chief (Limerick)
Friday, March 20th, 2020Headline: “Over-promising and under-delivering during a crisis is a toxic combination”
Over-promising, under-delivering;
The Donald has citizens quivering
With anger and fear.
His failures are sheer:
Lead to death and more feverish shivering.
Open Limerick To Donald Trump
Thursday, March 19th, 2020Dear Donald stop being a sleaze;
Cease calling the virus “Chinese.”
Do not spread racist blame!
COVID-19’s its name,
Coined by pros; folks with real expertise.
Trump’s Magic Touch (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 17th, 2020When the Donald appears on tv,
A deep Dow drop’s a fait accompli.
Into freefall it goes,
Which compounds all our woes…
And with bars closed, there’s nowhere to flee.
Zip It, Donald (Limerick)
Thursday, March 12th, 2020Dear Donald, it’s time to stop talking.
How ’bout filling your mouth-hole with caulking?
You keep making things worse,
So it’s time to be terse…
Or resign and go back to your hawking.
Crisis-Mishandler-In-Chief (Limerick)
Saturday, March 7th, 2020Empty bluster, denial, subversion,
Specious happy-talk, falsehood immersion;
Ev’ry Trumpy technique
For a crisis seems weak
When applied to a viral incursion.
AWOL Test Kits? (Limerick)
Friday, March 6th, 2020Headline: “‘BROKEN’ CORONAVIRUS TESTING PROCESS IN U.S. COULD HAVE ENABLED COVID-19 TO SPREAD ‘SILENTLY’ FOR WEEKS, EXPERTS WARN”
U.S. testing for COVID-19
Is so lacking, the number’s obscene.
Tests promised by Feds
Never come. Virus spreads!
But to Trump, things are great! Peachy keen!
Leave It To Trump To Make A Bad Situation Much Worse (Limerick)
Thursday, March 5th, 2020Headline: “Trump floats his own coronavirus hunches on ‘Hannity’ The president contradicts public health experts statements on death rate, contagion.”
The Donald’s profusion of lies
Has gone viral, so death could arise
From confusion he sows,
Contradicting the pros.
A worse plan one could never devise.
Victim-In-Chief (Limerick)
Saturday, February 29th, 2020Headline: “Trump Identifies the Real Coronavirus Victim: His Presidency”
There’s a virus whose spread causes dread.
It began in a land once called “Red.”
Though its victim counts stun,
To Trump there’s just one:
It is Trump — reelection hopes dead.
Pence To the Rescue (Limerick)
Thursday, February 27th, 2020Headline: “Mike Pence was criticized for his handling of Indiana’s HIV outbreak. He will lead the U.S. coronavirus response.”
A pandemic? No worries! Mike Pence
Is in charge, which makes wonderful sense.
No doubt he’ll repeat
His HIV feat.
So relax! Let the praying commence.
Trump’s Market Solution (2-Verse Limerick)
Wednesday, February 26th, 2020Trump slashed funds meant for health expertise
And starved agencies aimed at disease.
But when COVID-19
Dims the stock market sheen,
It’s the fault of the Left, says the sleaze.
A vaccine’s “very close,” Donald lies.
(An assertion that NO expert buys.)
We’re in “great shape,” he swears.
How will Trump stop those bears?
Sell his lies for a stock market rise.
