A Fine-Tuned Machine

Calling all tuners!
It’s time to convene
To evaluate Trump and
His “fine-tuned machine.”

That’s the claim that he’s making
But most seem to feel
His machine might be missing
A cog or a wheel…

Or a lot more than that.
It just makes the blood boil
And to fix things, dear tuners,
You’ll need more than oil.

So get started right now
And if we are in luck,
This machine can be salvaged
Before we’re all…..stuck!

Love this witty write, Ilene! His fine tuned machine is dented and not impressing me. Let's hope we get through the next 4 years in one piece...hugs, Rhonda

Good luck! Mrs Ilene, I think I'd rather trade this one in on a newer model:(
