Another thoght I had Jan, have you noticed the republicans that support him, the white supremacists, hillbillies, or the lost and never found. Love this write, dread the 3rd, November but something tells me if Trump does not win, he will say that votes have been tampered with and the election process is not a true reflection of who the people want for President. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

LOL He wears makeup. Think he puts coins on his eyes when he uses the tanning booth, so the area around them is white. Great limerick! Enjoyed, Jan. Hugs, Carolyn

We keep asking ourselves that question. Publicity stunt? Possible for sure. Well penned.

This is clever and well-written, Jan! I think he probably had it. Some people farel better than others. I don't like to hear him downplay Covid. Those who have lost loved ones to it are especially offended by his cavalier attitude! Janice

Always, always. I am afraid he is going to do it in Electoral votes, but lose in people votes. It isn't fare that our votes don't count. Enjoyed reading. Hugs Eve

Lol! The pictures alone caused me to laugh out loud. Did he or Didn’t he have COVID- 19? That is the question. As usual good limerick. I hope you’re doing well my friend:-) Alexis

I very much doubt he had the virus, just a cheap publicity stunt to make him look like a super hero:-( so glad to see you posting again:-) hugs jan xx

where did you ever get that picture, jan? i have never seen that one! great limerick - it is very suspicious that he was "cured" so quickly, especially considering his age and weight and how about karma?
Allison Avatar

I found the pics on the web lol, i couldnt resist writing about the orange oompah loompah, I still think it was orchestrated by his press and PR team ... shame folk fall for the fake news:-( hugs Jan xx

The news this morning reports 49% of Iowa voters support Trump, who has done a "phenomenal" job managing the pandemic - only 215,000 deaths compared to China's less than 5,000 (after a "draconian" lockdown of only 76-days! So China's economy is almost back to normal whilst the USA is collapsing). So you aren't the only one bewildered by Trump supporters! Aloha! Rico

Up to now I have never seen anyone with the covid-19. Which is good for I suppose seeing hundred of people here are getting infected. Loved your limerick though. Plus a delightful picture. ~~
