RECUSAL FOR CLARENCE?

 

Will Judge Clarence Thomas
In view of wife Ginni’s participation
In the instigating of the Jan 6 insurrection
Be recused from consideration
Of any matters involving
The Orange Huckster’s legal situation?

SUPREMES AMBLE IN

 

The Supremes want in on the action
So they’re taking on Presidential Immunity
Holding the nation in suspense for months
Before articulating their views for posterity
 
And also for the Orange Huckster
Who claims absolute immunity
For actions of any sort
During his Presidency
 
The Huckster is envious of Putin
And other dictator types
Who do pretty much what they want
And don’t tolerate any gripes

MICHIGAN AS EXPECTED

 

What did Michigan Republicans say?
That most are happy to be part
Of the Orange Huckster’s army
As he marches them toward
His legacy of infamy
 
But a significant minority
Are not part of the army
And still have hope for the future
Of their threatened party

MERCEDES

 

The search is on for “Mercedes”
Who the Orange Huckster praised
Before the CPAC audience
Leaving a few eyebrows raised
 
Some say he meant his wife Melania
Others say Mercedes Schlapp
The wife of the CPAC host
But still others see a possible conspiracy
And think the Huckster is holding
Secret auditions for a new First Lady
In the event he’s returned to the Presidency

TAIL WAGS DOG

 

The MAGA tail is wagging
The Republican dog
Creating something that resembles
A snorting bloviating hog
 
Meanwhile,
Aid to Ukraine
Is apparently in limbo
Thanks to House Republicans
Carrying out the desires
Of the bloviating Orange Bimbo

SOUTH CAROLINA

 

The bad news is
Nikki lost in South Carolina
The good news is
She got almost forty percent of the vote
In a MAGA dominated party
In a MAGA dominated state
That’s something to contemplate
 
Bottom line is
The Orange Huckster lacks complete control
Of his fate
Even in a MAGA dominated state

TWO YEARS

 

Two years ago
Putin invaded Ukraine
Now the war grinds on
And House Republicans
Are feeling pain
 
Defending freedom and democracy
In a foreign land
Is losing its attraction
As their leader the Orange Huckster
Expresses his opposition
And his Putin admiration

REFUSAL TO PROCREATE

 

Next step for the Alabama Supreme Court
Is its efforts to elimination abortion
Is to realize that
A women’s refusal to engage in procreation
Is really just abortion pre-conception
 
So you studs out there
Try that reasoning on a prospective honey
And don’t be discouraged
If she looks at you funny

THE SUPREMES AND MARJORIE

 

The Supreme Court suggested
To Marjorie Taylor Greene
That she put a mask on
Then shut up
And begone

TUCKER THE BUFFOON

 

Tucker is looking
More and more the buffoon
A Putin MAGA flunky
Praising Russian shopping carts
As evidence of Russian superiority
 
He’s down in George Santos territory
Crying for attention
But mostly receiving
A lot of rejection

THE HOUSE AND UKRAINE

 

Can Dems and Pro-American Republicans
Overcome the House Pro-Putin MAGAs
And provide Ukraine needed aid
To counter the Red Army cascade?

GOLDEN SNEAKERS

 

WOW, Golden Sneakers
The latest item the Orange Huckster
Has tried hustling to gullible believers
Joining suits, cards, steaks
Vitamins, ties, mattresses
Vodka, planes, casinos
Wine, water, books
A game, cologne, college degrees

And of course,

His alleged governing expertise
 
So step right up, make a purchase
And join the MAGA circus

ACCOUNTABILITY NEARS, MAYBE

 

Many Americans are attracted
To the Orange Hoax’s posse
By his ability to reside and profit
On the edges of legality and morality
 
Is he reaching
A moment of accountability?
One can only hope
He could emerge as a genius
Or exposed as a corrupt dope

JUDICIAL SYSTEM, KEEP’EM COMING

 

The Orange Huckster went on a tirade
About a 355 million dollar judgement
Making the accusation that
It was political punishment
 
Well, if that is the case
It was certainly deserved and appropriate
Who’s more worthy of punishment
Than the chief insurrectionist advocate?

REPUBLICANS LOOK TO THE 1930s

 

Congressional Republicans are flirting with
Their party’s pre-WWII isolationism
Withhold aid to Ukraine
And let it fall to Putin’s totalitarianism
 
Such an outcome
Would most certainly be
A betrayal of a deserving democracy
And a blot on American history

VALENTINE’S DAY

 

Joe wished Jill
Happy Valentine’s Day
The Orange Huckster couldn’t remember
Which of his assault victims
Might still be acceptable prey
 
Meanwhile,
House Speaker Johnson
Is against pretty much everything
No border bill, no aid to Ukraine
Nothing that would result
In giving the Huckster any pain

WILL GOP SUCCUMB TO NEPOTISM?

 

The Odious Orange Huckster
Wants his daughter-in-law
(The hot one or the other one?)
To be co-chair of
The Republican National Committee
Which would solidify his grip
On the Lincoln-Eisenhower-Reagan Party
 
And when it concerns

The Republican Party
What the Huckster desires
He usually acquires

NFL TEAMS ARE ENVIOUS

 

The success Swifty has brought
To the Kansas City Chiefs
Is the envy of the NFL
Other teams now want a hottie
Who can cast a similar spell
 
Meanwhile,
Tucker Carlson took on Putin
Putin cleaned his clock
Spewed a half hour monologue
On Ukrainian-Russian history
Some of which was deficient
In the area of accuracy

PUTIN THE DEBT COLLECTOR

 

The Odious Orange Huckster
Encouraged his pal Valdimir
To invade NATO nations
If those nations are not current
In their NATO financial obligations
Guess Val is not just a dictator
But also the Huckster’s debt collector
 
Meanwhile,
There was a sports event in Vegas
A big game of some kind
The most significant aspect was
Swifty got there in time
To see her fellow and team shine

MOCKING AN AMERICAN SOLDIER

 

The Orange Bone Spur mocked
Nikki’s soldier husband
Who is overseas serving his country
Something the Bone Spur has not done
 
Indeed, the Bone Spur
Has a history
Of dissing American soldiers
Particularly ones killed, wounded, or captured
In the service of the country
 
In sharp contrast
To this anti-soldier dance
Is the GOP’s long-standing
Pro-service-to-the-nation stance

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

 

The Orange Huckster begins
By calling Joe “Obama”
Joe responds by addressing
The Huckster as “Ivanka”
The give and take commences
“You’re really senile”
“Well, you're ahead of me

By a country mile”

The debate moderator intercedes
“This is an exercise in futility
Both you gentlemen belong
In an old codger’s facility”

BIG LEGAL DAY

 

The Supremes seem likely
To reject Colorado’s argument
That the Orange Huckster
Can be kept off the ballot
Under the Fourteenth Amendment
 
Meanwhile,
Release of the Special Counsel’s report
On Joe’s classified docs difficulties
Is sure to keep alive
Questions about Joe’s cognitive abilities
 
Later Joe held a presser
In which he directly addressed the report
He was largely successful
Except for confusing Mexico and Egypt
Just a minor mental fart

REPUBLICAN CLOWN CAR

The Republican Clown Car
Continues its chaotic journey
Creating a record that is
Unique in American history
 
Latest event is that
After bemoaning the border dysfunction
And participating in bipartisan efforts
That would correct much of the situation
Senate Republicans did a one-eighty
And voted no on the final legislation 

CITIZEN TRUMP

 

A Federal Appeals Court
Has rejected the assertion
Of the Odious Orange Bone Spur
That he is immune from prosecution
 
The Court described him
As “Citizen Trump”
A moniker the Orange Bone Spur obviously
Does not think renders him
The appropriate dignity
 
Meanwhile,
Dysfunctional House Republicans
Failed in their first shot
At impeaching a Democratic Cabinet Member
Seems their vote counting wasn’t too hot

PUTIN’S PALS

House Republicans are striving
To be Putin’s Pals
No aid to Ukrainians
Notwithstanding their painful howls
 
Whatever happened to
The globalist GOP
Of the Cold War years?
Apparently to please the Orange Huckster
It shifted gears
From opposing totalitarian dictators
To giving them cheers

 

AGING LEADER

 

If you must have an oldster

As the nation’s leader
Which do you prefer?
One who has gotten a bit slow
But is still basically rational
And when his advisers talk
A comprehending listener?
 
Or one who’s belligerence, hostility
And narcissism
Are increasing significantly
As is his fabricating tendency
And who overrides any advisory efforts
With his own flawed certainty?

HOSTILITIES WITH IRAN?

 

Will the situation in the Middle East
Result in open hostilities
Between Iran and America?
Or will the murky status quo continue
And the only actual fighting
Be with a random local militia?
 
Meanwhile, Joe is trouncing’em
In the South Carolina primary
Who’s he running against?
Don’t recognize the names
But they are formidable undoubtedly

IMORTANT TOPICS

 

Joe has begun
A serious and likely lengthy operation
Against loose-cannon Middle East militias
That have become more than a mere distraction
 
Regarding an equally important international matter
The expectation is that Swifty
Will be able to get
From Japan to Los Vegas
In time for a Super Bowl whisky
And maybe a Kansas City victory
 
Although the intellectually deep MAGA crowd
Has come upon a deep conspiracy
Involving Swifty, the Super Bowl, endorsements
That could change the course of history
The reasoning and evidence are much too murky
to discuss through poetry
Calculus and quadradic equations
might be more appropriate tools  
to dissect the mystery

SLIM LEAD

In a CNN poll
The Orange Huckster has a slim lead
How is that possible
When he’s such a stinkweed?
 
Alternatively, for the more vulgar

The Orange Huckster has a slim lead
In a CNN poll
How is that possible
When he’s such an ahole?
 
In any case
Apparently a goodly number of citizens
Really like the dude
But another goodly number of citizens
Think he’s the epitome of ineptitude
With morals and an intellect
That are unglued
