What Americans Can't See

    They’re stark naked from their heads to their toes
    Our aspiring emperors wear no clothes
       Why can’t we see that
       They look like two rats
     Perhaps we’re too busy holding our nose

Half of America pointed and said he’s wearing no clothes (probably can’t say whether he’s male or female either) and the media covered their eyes pretending he was royally dressed and not a mess.

It’s like we gave the keys to the car to two blind men! I just know they’ll be a crash! Great limerick!

I wholeheartedly agree, Gershon. It's been quite the political circus. JFK Jr. Is a maybe on the ballot in my state. Hope you're having a fab July afternoon. Blessings to you and your family. :)

Or praying for a miracle candidate to come out of the red, white and blue. Made me laugh again.
