I think he makes many feel more than bitter but, I don't think we can use such words on the Soup. Why can't he just be a human being? Good luck in the contest.

You and many others Constance but he got voted in and we have to put up with his antics for 4 very long years:-( hugs Jan xx

Excellent, Jan, sums him up perfectly. Although I think he should have his own social media stream called 'Twatter'. Viv x

I just saw the choices on this contest and laughed aloud, knowing the negativity I would portray might haunt me for a long time. It was not worth the risk. Your poem is Wonderful! Nicely built. And well-said.

He is the only one I know a little about so was my obvious choice lol:-) hugs Jan xx

I am thinking of writing a parody of soldier soldier won't you marry me about 2 of our own politicians!:-) hugs jan xx

Hi Jan, I totally agree, how can we take anything he says serious when he tweets about eveything? Good Clerihue. I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis

Jan Allison

I can't understand why he thinks 'twatter' is the way to inform people, so few characters allowed, how can you get any sort of message across:-( hugs Jan xx

Right on, Jan, could not agree more xxoo

I could write so much more Mike but I see more than enough Trump poems so i will just do the one for now lol:-) hugs Jan xx

Jan Allison

lol I know many feel strongly about this guy but heaven forbid some people voted him into power and other's have to live with that decision for four very long years:-( hugs jan xx

May I correct your poem? Last line you said "some" please change that to " all gods and all humans" LOL

Jan Allison
Date: 7/21/2018 1:06:00 PM

It would make the poem too long lol:-) hugs Jan xx

God will bless you for being so kind to dumb animals! Now the world sees Trump as a vacuous showman who blathers in awe at genuine dictators! You know he sold the USA down the Volga to Putin in their private talk! So happy you have chosen to speak up - and out! Aloha! Rico

Thanks Rico:-) hugs Jan xx

Haha..nicely done Jan...He is scary

Jan Allison

I dread to see what he has said and done next Joseph, its scary he got voted into power in the first place:-( hugs Jan xx

I don't get much involved in political banter, the one thing that gets me is that why would the president be using Twitter, it seems so I don't know, high school to me. If you want someone to take your message seriously then why shove it into a brevity message on a flaky social media site...you're poem is spot on.

Jan Allison
Date: 7/21/2018 6:20:00 AM

You've hit the nail on the head Cas:-) hugs Jan xx

You are soooo good Jan! He has no filter, unfortunately, for the USA. I bet this will score high.: ) xxoo

There are few places in the contest Connie, I have another idea too so I may change it:-) hugs Jan xx

I can proudly say I did not vote for him. Another admirable write.

Jan Allison
Date: 7/20/2018 2:14:00 PM

I didn't vote for him either she says tongue in cheek as I'm in the UK. I cringe every time I put the tv or radio on, he is a walking nightmare and his actions reverberate around the world . I doubt the Queen will be dashing to invite him to meet again, walking in front of her was a huge blunder but he just seems oblivious and carries on regardless:-( hugs jan xx
