Pruitt’s (Womp, Womp) Ouster (Limerick)

Thursday, July 5th, 2018

Headline: “Scott Pruitt blames ‘unrelenting attacks’ for his demise”

In a letter to Trump packed with whines,
The sleazy Scott Pruitt resigns;
Though corrupt to the max,
“Unrelenting attacks”
Took a “toll” — his self-pitying lines.

Donald Trump, the Anti-Dale Carnegie (Limerick)

Sunday, February 26th, 2017

Have you noticed Trump’s habit of picking random fights with allies? Even France is rightfully peeved at the Donald for Trump’s Paris rant, which included this gem:

“Paris? I don’t go there anymore. Paris is no longer Paris,” Trump quoted his friend as saying.

Donald thoughtlessly tends to digress
Into statements that cause allies stress.
Watch his Cabinet Secs
As they turn into wrecks,
While attempting to clean up each mess.

Trump Nominees Versus Trump??? (Limerick)

Friday, January 13th, 2017

My latest limerick was inspired by the stark differences between Trump’s signature campaign promises and the positions of his Cabinet picks.

While under the hearing lights’ glare
Donald’s picks make it clear they don’t share
Major policy views
With their prez. Does he snooze
Through their shmoozes … or simply not care?

Limerick Ode To Trump’s Cabinet

Thursday, December 15th, 2016

A Cab’net of wealthy white men;
The richest, white male group, since when?
Since Bush Senior presided.
A wee bit lopsided?
For balance — Ivanka — rich hen.

Trump’s Ongoing Con Job (Limerick)

Thursday, December 15th, 2016

Donald’s populist ploy goes beyond
Any con job I’ve ever seen spawned.
Yet his fans (who should keen
From the rich, elite sheen
Of Trump’s Cab’net) don’t know they’ve been conned.

Trump’s Make-Believe Firewall (Limerick)

Wednesday, December 14th, 2016

Trump has conflicts of int’rest galore.
Think you’re tracking them all? Count some more!
Watch sons Donald and Eric
(His firewall chimeric)
Play roles in the Cab’net pick chore.
