Headline: As More States Open, Trump Focuses on Election
Recovery’s reached a big junction,
So I, without any compunction
As more lockdowns freeze
Will be switching disease
And spreading Electile Disfunction.

Hey, wise guy, you blowing a whistle?
You make me get angry and bristle.
You question my virtue?
Well, that’s gonna hurt you,
And clearly it’s grounds for dismissal.

“If we didn’t do any testing we would have very few cases.” ~ Donald J. Trump
The number of cases we’ve had?
We’re testing! That’s why we look bad!
If we don’t persist
Then they don’t exist!
It’s better already. I’m glad.

They’re up in my face
And they don’t know their place.
And they sure aren’t hot like my daughters.

Admit we’ve a terrible plight.

His fears disregarded!

Headline: Trump Floats Idea of “Obamagate” Conspiracy. Offers no details.
The case is quite open and shut.
His evil intent is clear-cut.

The worst in Our Times!
HE’S GUILTY!… (don’t ask me of what)

Oh, crap!….did I hear someone cough?

I’m Donald. I will not demean
My Self with a dumb quarantine.

Headline: A cluster of coronavirus cases in California was traced to a coughing patient at a birthday party
Fed up with predictions of doom?

Go party, my friend!
And I will attend
Your funeral service on Zoom.

Taking a break from politics in honor of Mother’s Day:
I wish all a great Mother’s Day.
Though this year it’s odd, I must say.
What kind of day is it —
The kids can’t come visit,
And we’re getting frostbite in May.

We’re going to spring Michael Flynn
Despite his admission of sin.
Could I say how far
Trump’s lowered the Barr?
I just don’t know where to begin….!

The President has been exposed!
(It’s not what you might have supposed –
Just to his valet.
He still gets away
With much that should get him deposed

The President says that it’s stinkin.’
The press treats him worse than Abe Lincoln!
Don’t know if he’s joking
Or what he’s been smoking,
But surely the man isn’t thinkin’!
May 6
The virus is from the Chinese!
Their lab is what caused this disease!
(We really can’t tell,
But hey, what the hell,
We always blame just who we please.)
May 5
The President calls his accusers
A whole bunch of liars and losers.
Yet each time he tweets
He merely repeats
“I am my own worst of abusers.”
May 4

Yet Donald screams at him to shush!
Now friends, just between us,
While George was no genius
‘Tis Donald who thinks with his tush.

Don wants that all ended.
If not, it will make him quite Grauci.

I ‘m so very nervous and tense
From worrying ‘bout our Mike Pence.
At Mayo, no mask!
(I just have to ask…
Do they have a treatment for “dense”?)
April 24
The President thinks that Purell
Will cure us and make us all well.
He’s no longer keen
On Hydroxychloroquine
Because it’s much harder to spell.
