The Trump Prophesy

"Losers" and "suckers" are such small fry 
That nobody cares if they all die
Trump vows (with a frown),
"There'll be NO lockdown
And Joe Biden will be the fall guy"!

G’day Rico … when in opposition, a mouthpiece can promise the world. Perhaps this galah should be forced to work with covid patients - thanks again Rico - Lindsay

When I switched on the News this morning, a man reporting on COVID-19 said, "Back in January, President Trump took the lead ...." The only lead Trump took was in declaring COVID-19 a Democratic hoax! As for your comment, when did Trump ever do ANY work except take credit for the work of others? Aloha! Rico

I was quite angered by his references to our soldiers being "suckers and losers," Rico. Trump is still promising there'll be no lockdown during his administration. Just hope Biden takes over in time to curb the pandemic. About 67 more days... Great limerick, Rico! Hugs, Carolyn

I was not drafted, but volunteered, which makes me a major "loser" and "sucker". My classmates stayed home and prospered, but I have never regretted my years of service in the military, DOD, nor NSA. Aloha! Rico

Perhaps there will be a vaccine soon. One can only hope. A fine limerick, Rico. Best of wishes, Evelyn :)

Several are on the horizon, but the Trumps must decide how they can profit from it before it is released. Aloha! Rico

Aloha, Rico... I sure hope we won’t have to go to another lockdown. I’ll be jobless by then, Lol! And I sure pray this virus will fade out by the end of this year. I’m sure we’d all appreciate to breath normal again... Stay warm and safe :)

If Trump had followed WHO guidelines back in March, you would have been back to work in April! Lockdowns will continue until EVERYONE realises we are ALL in a pandemic together! Aloha! Rico
