The Biggest Loser

There goes the Donald again, flapping his mouth
Every time he lets it fly, his ratings go South

And she who would be chief Constitutional vandal
The media just glossed over her latest scandal

Truly it’s a contest to see who’s the biggest loser
So put Jillian Michaels in charge; we could really use her

Is he nastier than her, or she worse than him?
Instead of the White House, get their butts to the gym

The true biggest loser, of course, is plain to see
The ordinary Americans like you and me...

Yes, always the voters are those who lose! Great writing dear, Tom! You have to choose between two evils choose the lesser one. The problem is to find who that person is.

Thank you, Anne-Lise. My guess is that many people don't want to go near controversy. Of course there's supposed to be a bunch of drama going on here, and I don't ever seem to run into it...

Great political humor. Personally, I'll take Hillary. If The Donald becomes president we'll be at war within 6 months. I mean a full scale war! Too thin skinned. But yes, you are correct Tom.
