Notes About The Poem

Like all of us he's horribly flawed but he's also doing some good things

 

A Case For the Nobel Peace Prize

To President Trump, special thanks:  
For pulling old glory from Syria's chemical maze.
For bringing rocket man to the negotiation table.
Perhaps making the 38th parallel just a little more stable.
Thanks for fighting for all the babies embattled in the womb.
For pulling peace, through strength, out of its iron tomb.
For sealing Uncle Sam's piggy bank to many terrorist nations. 
Who've, for decades. threatened our existence with nuclear annihilation.
Thanks for signing into law long-awaited prison reform.
So, a balanced scale of justice will become the blessed norm.
Though they call you cold-hearted and bold font your many flaws.
They never mention the giant door and welcome mat in the center of your wall.

But in the meantime, you need to shut down that big pie hole.
Because all this childish drama is getting a little old!

By the way, the phrase Old glory refers to the American Flag, so I can see where you would think that I was praising the Syrian regime if you didn't know what old glory represented. Anthony

I don’t think it could be said any better :). I do wonder if that pie hole of his keeps his detractors distracted chasing nonsense??? Probably not...
