A Man Named Trump

There once was a man named Trump; his country needing a royal bump; so, as age can refine, like vintage and wine – (seeing liberties decline) thought to take-on the thankless task of pulling a nation from a Donkey's Dump – After winning public office – while taking note of peer-heads comfortable in the rear 'neath the Donkey’s fowl orifice – with many spineless others bailing while our Precious Republic, if not failing, definitely ailing! – a chunk of freedom hitting him on the head Despite a slight flutter, and perhaps a small stutter, he began the perilous task of restoring – beloved lady in his harbor needing shoring – as a matador fearless of goring he led rolling aside stepping over the prostrate bodies of cowards….

Really like the style of this one, and I'd agree with you, Joe -- 'cos those donkeys makes arses look intelligent!, but Mr. Trump has so little personal integrity, is so utterly careless with his tongue, throws his own hires under the bus on a regular basis, and foreign policy-wise is a big flop -- so, No, I don't think he's the answer for the USA at all. Too bad, as Biden and the Dems are a nightmare-in-waiting! (I'd vote for Pence for President). I think we really do have to put all our faith in God Above at this point...Just sayin' Thanks! ~ gw

Love Pence; I think he is a fine Conservative, and someday would make an excellent president. Strange how two reasonable people can look at the same man or evidence and come up with completely different opinions. But that is what makes American special -- we are able to disagree and not be silenced or thrown into prison for our beliefs. Not yet anyway, until the Democrats/communists have their way. As I have said, I like Trump. I think he has loads of integrity -- and I love his foreign policies. I believe his negotiated trade-agreements with Mexico and Canada so far have been major successes, and it is about time the world stands up to China, goes toe to toe, the way led by President Trump. He already has my vote. Thank you, Gershon, for sharing your honest and heart-felt feelings. The election is now only months away.

For all the mindless calumny directed at him, and in spite of imperfections (who in this world is perfect?) he is at this time the best hope for the preservation of the USA (the best experiment in a thousand years) and for freedom in the world. And that is from a Brit! Well said, Joe.

Hi Geoffrey; thank you for commenting -- my work was getting lonely here. As you say, no one is perfect -- Trump is a man, no more no less. I happen to like him; maybe my being an ex-New Yorker, we just speak the same language. As far as people not voting for him because of character or personality issues...that's nonsense. Fake news hype. Most people are far more intelligent than that. Most people I know (many Independent) don't take polls. They are a large voting block -- a silent majority -- who will vote for him. The squeakiest wheel may get the Main Stream News Media's Grease (they are Marxist co-conspirators) but they are in the minority. Blessings my friend.
