Headline: Trump Disavows Knowledge of ‘Proud Boys’
What’s wrong with Boys being Proud?
It’s nice they can say that out loud!
But stand down and stand by,
And I’ll turn a blind eye
When you plow through that ‘antifa’ crowd.

Headline: Trump Defends His Debate Behavior
My strategy? I interrupt.
Act nasty and rude and abrupt.
When challenged, deny
With a very Big Lie,
And do not debate. Just disrupt.

Headline: Trump Still Hides Tax Returns After New York Times Allegations
For taxes, six dollars a week.
Being President pays!
I have it both ways!
That’s why I won’t give you a peek.

Headline: Nation Prepares for First Presidential Debate
I’m sure that this evening’s debate
Will be rational, calm, and sedate,
Based on logic and fact,
And with dignified tact.
And I am Emir of Kuwait.

Headline: Trump Loses Patience Over Sober Covid Assessments
With evidence right in their noses,
What negligence all this exposes!
The truth is too stinging,
So Don’s folks are singing:
It’s “Everything’s Coming Up Roses.”

Headline: Trump Again States if He Loses, It’s Because of Fraud
To presuppose cause for an end
Is logic you cannot defend.
It’s called a Red Herring
It’s not only erring,
It’s now quite the Trumpian trend.
And knowing what Donald is spewing
And realizing what he’s pursuing,
And knowing it’s fraud,
You stand and applaud
You’re cheering this nation’s undoing.

Headline: Justice Department Labels New York, Portland and Seattle as ‘Anarchy’ Jurisdictions
The Justice Department? How quaint.
Don’s freed it from any constraint.
In the hands of Bill Barr
Bid the name au revoir,
It’s ‘Just Us’ now. Justice, it ain’t.

Headline: Trump: Covid-19 Affects ‘Virtually Nobody.’
I’m Virtually No One. I’m dead.
“So what? Sick and old!”, Don has said.
I’m Two Hundred Thousand!! —
But you’re taking bows and
Ignoring me. Bragging instead.

Headline: Trump Claims Democratic Politicians Wrote Judge Ginsburg’s Dying Wish
You blot without morals or shame
Who seeks to divide and inflame.
Do not invoke Ruth
In your war against truth.
You’re not fit to utter her name.

Headline: Trump Demands Schools Teach ‘Patriotic’ History
We’re perfect. Accept. Be robotic.
And that will make school ‘patriotic’.
And so our friend Mister T
Whitewashes history,
As common among the despotic.
