Yet another Trump Limerick Contest

(My entry is one I used before,which has been slightly tweaked)


There once was a double-chinned phony
Who fed all the people baloney
But he won the election
Using lies and deception
With some help from Putin and Comey

The very best limericks have the very difficult inner rhyme in the last line.

Yours is well worthy of a hearty R&

Who had a diminutive peter.
And he had tiny hands
And minuscule glands,
But at golf was a masterful cheater.

who spied for Russia with a grin
He lied to Pence
and haven't been seen since
Now the feds might put him in the pen

Great hatred and incitement he doled
He made best friends with Vlad
And called all others sad
Offered bots for his soul he cried sold!

Who liked to bang girls in their teens
He'd offer them money
Then say to them "Honey,
I just want to get into your jeans"

When your gaze is a menacing stare,
And your small, pudgy eyes seem to glare,
And your mouth is agape --
No you're not a Great Ape,
Just the POTUS they're calling "Mein Herr"

The Donald is clearly insane
his ravings bizarre and inane
The wildest "fake news"
is the "news' that he spews
as our healthcare glugs down the drain.

"Make America Great Again"
A slogan for stupid white men
And their Stepford wives
Who lead sheltered lives
And all their deplorable kin

Not the land of milk & honey
Trump's America isn't so sunny
The billionaires will thrive
Everyone else may survive
Until Trump takes all of their money
