Imagine if Trump slurred his words.

Was quite clearly off with the birds.

They’d close for the kill.

But Joe, poor old dill,

They hide his dementia  — the turds.

Scarecrow

𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐰

He’s a bully, a racist, a boor!
A misogynist — lots and lots more!
Is he solid and real?
Of course not! Here’s the deal —
He’s an image we’ve built out of straw.

𝐓𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬

I wonder why Trump even tries.
Beset by the media’s lies,
He battles for good,
But what’s the use should
The foolish outnumber the wise.

Opposed by a man quite demented,
And by the unthinking resented
For saying some words,
While Joe’s polished turds
With strife and decline are contented.

The Prize Fighters

2020 US Presidential Election, Donald Trump, Joe Biden, limerick, poem, poetry

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬

The Donald and ol’ Sleepy Joe,
They battle it out toe to toe.
The Don screams: “You sook!”
Then throws a right hook.
Joe blocks it, then lands a low blow!

Poor Donald’s been punched down below.
Moves in for the kill, Sleepy Joe —
Left hook — Donald ducks.
Ol’ Joe exclaims: “Shucks!”
As into the ring comes his hoe.

She laughs as she takes off her pearls,
Then a ripping right Harris hurls —
It’s wild and it’s wide! Whoa!
It flattens her mate Joe!
Trump says: “Sadly, I don’t fight girls.”

Trump the non-politician

𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩  𝐭𝐡𝐞  𝐧𝐨𝐧–𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐧

He’s not a politician — that’s the point!

He isn’t a trained liar like old Joe.

If you want cunning, Trump will disappoint —

He’s not a politician — that’s the point.

He’s trying hard to straighten out the joint;

And he’s not bent — he doesn’t need the dough.

He’s not a politician — that’s the point!

He isn’t a trained liar like old Joe.

𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧  𝐄𝐲𝐞𝐬

I wonder why the ladies don’t like Trump?

(He has a gorgeous wife and he is rich)

Melania is neither plain nor plump —

I wonder why the ladies don’t like Trump?

(He does prefer a shapely female rump)

Could it be jealousy? — It’s such a bitch!

I wonder why the ladies don’t like Trump?

(He has a gorgeous wife and he is rich)

It’s man against man!
Trump’s tuning his tan.
Joe Biden is being sedated.

Deciden on Biden

Deciden on Biden

I’m a Democrat! I’ll vote for Joe!
He’s demented? Oh sure, that I know.
His brain’s dead as a stump,
But he’s not Donald Trump!
(And he’ll soon be replaced by a hoe.)

Shocked (Democrat voting) Reader:

Hey poet! Now I’m really pissed!
You fascist! You misogynist!
You insult I see
His female VP.
From this defamation — desist!

Poet’s Reply:

Oh, your words, how they sting! You are cruel!
But it’s clear that old Joe’s such a fool,
I must say here in verse,
He’d be as POTUS worse,
Than a functional gardening tool.

Swapping Dependant Islands

Seems the U.S. will have a new state
Called “Greenland” — aren’t they going great?
The Donald is dealing
With Danes (it’s like stealing).
Those boofheads will sure take the bait.

But we Aussies, well we are much brainier.
We thought of a deal even zanier.
Trump thinks he’s one up,
But we’ll sell him a pup!
He’ll swap us Greenland for Tasmania!

The Donald appeals to just half —
The ones who at satire can laugh.
But 50% still aren’t buyers —
Preferring professional liars.
