Rico Leffanta Poet Limerick

Congress For Sale

Ten million dollars is quite a lot*
But not when Trump wants what one has got!
A sudden increase
In funding Elise 
Was proof enough Trump hit the right spot! 

* Funding for Rep. Elise Stefanik soared
From $2.8-million to $13.3 million after
she switched allegiance to the Trump cult!

Nancy Kaufman May 17, 2021 at 1:09 PM I am still amazed how Republicans are so loyal to this oof.

Michelle Faulkner May 14, 2021 at 8:56 PM Yet another politican who sold her soul to the cult of Trump~ Rico Leffanta May 16, 2021 at 11:20 AM Just read where Trump's Project Veritas was spending $10,000-a-pop of your taxes to hire prostitutes to seduce and record Trump dissidents, so ten million dollars for a Congresswoman would not mean much to Trump!

Carolyn Devonshire May 14, 2021 at 8:33 AM The influence of money on our governing system is appalling. I was shocked by what happened on a state level in Florida, but now we have a fundraising machine that threatens our future. This young woman needs more time before she's ready to take over a leadership position. Well said, Rico! Hugs, Carolyn Rico Leffanta May 14, 2021 at 12:10 PM What? She was bright enough to choose TEN MILLION dollars over integrity! The Trump cult would have us believe that is what made America great! Aloha! Rico

L Milton Hankins May 13, 2021 at 1:09 PM You've hit the right spot here, Rico. Thanks for writing this. Somehow I feel a bit nauseous. Rico Leffanta May 14, 2021 at 12:11 PM Americans are quickly discovering all their gods have clay feet! Aloha! Rico
