The Circus Has Come To Town

The circus has come to town Washington D.C., its prime playground Congress on the brink of a nervous breakdown Screaming at President Trump to step down Donald J. Trump stands center stage Tweeting and texting with fistic rage A bull in a china shop, inciting p.c. outrage While fancying himself a genius-sage To the left of Trump is former V.P., Joseph Biden Verbal gaffes all exposed he can't hide in 'Mr. Excitement' can't bring the voters' tide in He's sure experience alone will help him glide in Far to Biden's left rants Elizabeth Warren Her attacks on business, for an ox to gore on To break up Google and Amazon she'll go to war on To hell with $100k employee salaries ~ the moron Our circus is surely a sight for sore eyes to see And for an encore, we're bringing back Hilary!

This is a classic my friend, I really enjoyed it. But you couldn't find anything to rhyme with Pelosi? :)

Love it, we have our own circus with brexit and Boris, Funny, but the worrying thing is people voted them in. We're all doomed lol.

Seriously... Hilary... lol.. Oh my. As always you have a wonderful wit to make such fun of serious yet stupid people. We all need to laugh a lot more... You are a master poet. Ann

Ann, you are too kind to me. I just like to have a little fun with people who could care less about anyone other then themselves and their grip on power. :) gw

G'day Gershon … not sure about US politics, but our Prime Minister is in hot water for holidaying in Hawaii while huge fires are destroying houses, fire fighters have died, and the public believe he should be home supporting them, but of course he belongs to the political circus too - thanks Gershon - Lindsay

Sounds typical. Anyone ever hear of 'Politicians to the rescue?! ~~ Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Thanks, Lindsay.
